That beautiful EWEB building on the river is still for sale. Why doesn’t our city government step up and make it our new city hall and get out of our Lane Community College Downtown Center building, which was intended to house students and provide an important educational resource for our Continuing Education programs?
It seems that neither our city council and mayor, nor our new LCC president understand what that building stands for. The EWEB building is beautiful, secure and accessible. We do not need more hotels and condominiums occupying valuable property. Make it a city hall for the citizens of our city and give us back our LCC Downtown Center, fully staffed and fully supported.

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
