Progress for depot redo
|
Top: Businessman Juan Uribe toured the El Paso & Southwestern Railroad freight depot with architects and contractors last week, as plans to renovate the 1903 building moved forward. Uribe said he had a verbal agreement with a national chain to open a restaurant there.
He also said he and his partners were approved for a $750,000 Small Business Administration loan.
Bottom: There’s massive cleanup and renovation work to be done before the building can be occupied, as evidenced by the trash and debris piled outside the depot.
