I am including copies of the Sanborn maps fram 1897, 1905, 1914 and 1926
for your perusal. You will note that every footprint noted on these maps is
different from the pervious one. To me this does not show the developments of
an historical and significant structure but rather a general dissatisfaction
with what was there. I am also including a site plan from my 1981 remodel
which shows that the existing site was different fram the plot shown on the
1926 Sanborn map. Please note that on the 1926 map, the front of the building
did not extend to the front property line, whereas in the 1981 drawing the
entire front of the building touches the property line. In fact, we were
required by the Planning Department to get permission from the City Council to
go forward with our remodel. I am enclosing a copy of the Ordinance which
allows us to continue any existing encroachments onto public property. Thus,
you can see that the existing front of the building is different fram the
building that existed at the 1926 cut-off date for inclusion on the Historic
Inventory. Please note also that the North and East sides of the structure
are completely different fran what existed in 1926. The long narrow
"appendix" was removed in 1981. The patio on the East side which separates
the two bedroams of the apartments existed in 1981 but not in 1926.
By any rational test, the structure which stood at 135 16th Street in
1926 was demolished incrementally--probably lang before I came along in 1981.

Newspapers
Newspapers only print Public Information
First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free
exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the
people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances.
Newspapers produce and deliver news and information which they feel is important -- most often
from public information such as arrest reports, traffic infractions, accidents, indictments,
lawsuits, jury verdicts, property records, legal notices, and many other sources of information
which is freely available to anyone at any time. Newspaper publishers do not have access to any
information which is not also available to the public at large. All information published in a
newspaper is "public information."
The use of your name in an article does not mean you own it. Newspapers deliver news on all sorts
of public matters which, in addition to information found in the public registers, may include
statements you make to a reporter or official, your photograph, background and other information
provided by you or others, rebuttals, opinions, and other information such as court-ordered
legal notices, and historical and statistical data.
"The Press of the United States of America" is constitutionally protected from interference,
including by the government. If you are an attorney, law enforcement officer, officer of the
court, or other investigator, by law you must reveal that to us.
