Is it the nature of the beast?
Or are the 'horror stories' that get spread around about architects, designers, builders and trades really true?
Or is it possible that just maybe those construction professionals really do know what they're talking about and communication is the key? Granted, it's usually communication that is not pleasant by any standards.
A special thank you again goes out to city councilman Mike Gamba and Todd Leahy for standing up at the hardest part, for a very brief time and accomplishing what previous council and many on current council could not get done in years worth of effort.
The library can now finally move forward.

"“I know that wasn't a pleasant situation for anyone,” Gamba said. “But what we have now is a design we can all support..." (Read more? Click title)

SandBox Comments: Glenwood Springs Post Independent "Council critical of new library design concept"
What happened to all the new-found love between the Library District, Downtown Development and Glenwood Springs City Council for all these months?
All those glowing reports in the paper and during council meetings on how well everyone was talking together now, all tensions gone and the planning was 'going great!'?
Will these architects work for free as they go back and redo the entire plan? How are we going to pay for this?
Anyone who is in construction (BTW, Councilman Gamba...where have you been to let it get this far and be totally wrong? You know better.) knows you can't put this many people together without somebody checking constantly for who's on first and what's on second.
Looks like it should fit at The Meadows? Maybe that's a Freudian slip on the architects part because they may have it down in observation that all this fuss over the 'Eighth and Cooper Project' really wasn't 'going great!' after all.
Sorry, everybody but this one is way too hard to swallow.
