Judging from the outside, the inside of the 4th Avenue Theater must be mouldering.  What's the matter with a place that can't preserve even a short history?

We've had a mayor that cut down all the large fir trees in Town Square, when there would have been many better solutions to a transient problem.  The fountain was torn down, and maintaining an ice rink when it's cold seems to be too demanding.  The Wyland mural is fading.

We've got a museum that now looks like a metal office box structure.  And we used to have tiny white Christmas lights all over the city.  We're there even any Christmas decorations downtown?  If there were, I missed seeing them.  And the only stuffed bear downtown seems to be a soggy, dirty oversized stuffed toy.  Why would tourists bother when it's so discouraging for a long time resident?
