Glendale : Purchase of Lot OKd
Purchase of the first of several lots to be acquired for expansion of the Municipal Transit Center was approved Tuesday by the City Council.
The city has agreed to pay $487,500 in Proposition A transit funds for a 6,500-square-foot lot at 1627 Gardena Ave., owned by a family trust.
The property is near the historic Southern Pacific Depot, which the city bought in late 1989 for conversion into a transit center. The city is negotiating to purchase several other lots adjoining the Gardena Avenue property, which will be used to build a multistory parking garage to serve the transit center.
