J'y suis, j'y reste

Here I am, here I'll stay! It's a banner hung outside some of the buildings near the new train station that are marked for demolition. The city council and the architect want to create an enormous tree-lined, water-featured esplanade that will lead directly from the station's entrance to the riverbank. This project, however, requires the demolition of a number of buildings, some of which are private residences. You can imagine that the residents are none too happy.

This is a tough one. Will you keep us updated on how it progresses?

I'd hang a banner, too. Let 'em go around!

These look rather nice buildings with a bit of history. I'm on the side of the residents.
