At least now its apparent that it's Ray's writing that is at issue.
Your logic is: 1 is true, 2 is true, therefore 3. 3 is indeed true for what it
says: Dock St couldn't lease the Firehouse while it was occupied by others. But
3 has nothing to do with 1 and 2.
My problem is what you seem to suggest but don't say: that the prior
businesses were evicted so that the space could be leased to Dock Street. Is
that your point? If it is, presumably you have nothing to support your theory
because you haven't provided it again. If it's not your point, your postings
seem not to have a point or at least not one readily apparent. Perhaps all of
this could have been more pithily stated in the words of one of our members:
Any your point is?

that's not what ucd and the inky and cpn's website were saying, melani.
in 2004 ucd and the inky and cpn's website were saying how linford's firehouse
was such a success, such a part of ucd's efforts on baltimore avenue. that was
the same year ucd's gail fisher was hired as baltimore ave's corridor manager.
and then a year later, july 2005, linford martin asked the firehouse vendors
to vacate by november 2005. rosemarie certo, dock street owner, sold her pizza
rustica in october 2005 to go back into the microbrew beer business. in april
2006 dock street signed on with the firehouse.
the installation of dock street at the firehouse meant that local vendors
first had to move elsewhere.
