The Geneva City Council has decided not to allow demolition of the remains of a limestone structure at 4 E. State St. on the northern edge of the former Mill Race Inn property overlooking the Fox River in the city that was given local landmark status in 2018. The Shodeen Family Foundation - owners of the property and seeking to redevelop the 1.4-acre site - applied for a permit to remove the structure’s local landmark status and demolish it on the basis it is cost prohibitive to redevelop.
One of those conditions requested evidence that the structure is a deterrent to a major improvement program at the site, she said. ”Unfortunately, what the evidence reflected that those individuals interested in developing the property ... each of the individual entities that came to the applicant with interest in developing the property said they would not go forward with any application or any kind of development opportunity as long as the structure is there,” McCracken said.
