From: Tom Keyser Sent: Saturday, September 12, 2015 7:34 AM To: Dermody, Bill (CI-StPaul) Subject: Support for the Stone Saloon Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged Dear Members of the St. Paul City Council, I am writing to express my support for approval of the historic use variance for the Stone Saloon by the St. Paul City Council. It is a unique and historically significant project that will help tell the story of St. Paul’s early life, as well as revive one of this building's earliest uses as a saloon. My wife and I live in a 105 year old home that retains many of its original features such as pine bead-board walls and ceilings, pine floors and a wrap-around front porch. The beauty and homeyness of these historical elements give us great pleasure, as I hope this historic St. Paul gem, the Stone Saloon, will do for its patrons and neighbors.
