The Legado housing and shopping complex is coming back from the dead.
A year and a half ago, it was about 50 percent complete.
Then in the dark of night an arsonist torched it.
Lost were 329 apartments under construction, commercial space and a parking garage.
It covered 700,000 square feet of property in the heart of my town.
The loss was estimated at 60 million dollars.
The site was leveled and cleaned up and earlier this year construction resumed on the rebuilding.
Here's what it looks like today.
The project will rise from oblivion.
The arsonist, believed to be a young man also connected with break-ins and damage at the local high school, has not been apprehended.
Yet.
That's a huge amount of progress!
