Tucson Councilman Pursuing Historic Designation for Monastery

A discussion with Councilman Steve Kozachik about development in the city.

Residents living near Tucson's renowned Benedictine Monastery got an update this week from preservation architect Corky Poster, who's working with developer Ross Rulney. It came a few months after they unveiled initial plans for seven-story apartment buildings adjacent to the monastery. Prior to that meeting, Tucson City Councilman Steve Kozachik discussed the city's efforts to get the monastery designated as a historic landmark, which would protect it from demolition.
