What a fucking waste of tax dollars.

From the post:
"The Denver City Council on Monday approved two bills that will allow the city to raise up to $115 million to buy a downtown office building formerly occupied by The Denver Post and a hotel in the southeastern part of the city that is now being used as a homeless shelter.
The council previously signed off on the acquisitions of what is commonly referred to as The Denver Post building at 101 W. Colfax Ave. and an Embassy Suites hotel property at 7525 E. Hampden Ave. In the case of the former, Denver is planning to covert the 306,000-square-foot high-rise into courtrooms and other judicially focused spaces to meet the projected long-term space needs for county courts starting in 2030.
Monday’s votes secured the funding for those high-dollar purchases by authorizing the issuance of up to $115 million in certificates of participation — $90 million for The Denver Post building and $25 million for the hotel, respectively."
