Re: “Denver may tear down Boettcher Concert Hall to build a new amphitheater,” July 25 news story.
As a Denver resident who voted in 2007 for the $60 million remodel of Boettcher Concert Hall, I was profoundly disappointed in the news that Denver is considering tearing the building down. Considering last weekend’s grand opening of Union Station, it is ironic that Boettcher’s status is even being considered. And the suggestion that young Latinos would rather have a open amphitheater sounds a bit condescending.
Preserve Boettcher! Where’s Dana Crawford when you need her?
