SAVE THE LIVERY COALITION PETITION*
for shoppers, visitors and area residents in Chelsea

We, the undersigned, urge the DDA and City of Chelsea to preserve the Chelsea Livery located on Jackson Street from demolition. Instead of demolishing it, we support the adaptive reuse of the livery and the Great Lakes Zoological Society's proposal to develop a destination, indoor zoo in all the Longworth Buildings. A zoo would be another opportunity to attract visitors, add tourist traffic and increase business in Chelsea as well as serve families in the wider area. For any adaptive reuse, retaining the exterior of all the buildings would promote historic tourism by keeping the transportation corridor of old Chelsea intact. Historic tourism is another growth industry on which Chelsea can build its reputation as a place to visit, shop, and live. This is a GREEN solution!
