The City of Reno’s Historic Resources Commission is urging caution when it comes to plans for historic homes in the University of Nevada, Reno’s so-called Gateway District on Center Street.
At a recent commission meeting, UNR was criticized for not doing enough to spare the homes from campus expansion plans.
Our contributor Bob Conrad of ThisisReno.com says a number of the houses are in the path of potential new dorms and academic buildings.
"So the Historic Resources Commission basically voted to add language to a document that the city has drafted in regards to these properties," says Conrad. "They want to have more consideration for the impact to historic resources in this area."
