It's been a few years since I lived in the neighborhood, but ICA meetings were always super entertaining. Carra was president when I first moved in. Lots of NIMBY-ism in the community combined with some pretty wackadoodle ideas. I always had the vibe that if you hadn't been there for 30+ years your opinion didn't count.
And yeah, that Torode building is brutal. The RNDSQR building is great in my opinion, will mix things up nicely.
Still my favorite neighborhood I've lived in, now that we are closing in on empty nest status we are certainly considering moving back.
