"That, as it happens, is precisely the rub: This place has so much history, so many surviving structures of historical significance, not to mention undiscovered buried artifacts, that experts say it could take tens of millions of dollars for the city to acquire and preserve them all." If we saved everything, everybody wanted to save from the past, we'd have no present. Time moves on, if you want to save something work to save it, but realize that the Historic Drive-In Society, the Main Street Preservation Society, the Historic Jail Society, the Save Our Original Schools Society, etc. is fighting the same battle. To say nothing of the Save Our Farms, Save our Trees, Save our Wild Grasslands . . . . they probably are arguing for tearing down all the old Roundhouses and reverting the land back to it's 'natural' state before humans ruined it. Pick your battles and fight hard when you've picked them
