BURLINGTON, ON
It must have been quite a party.
Cleaning crew failed to show up?
With no one around to clean up and a case of beer that was too warm to drink when it was found.
Who used the space?
Who forgot to clean up?
Whoever used the site made good use of all the space.
Quite a bit of beer was left for anyone passing by. No word on what our photographer might have done.
Parks and Recreation will be making phone calls Monday morning about this one.
The space was being used legally wasn’t it?
Paletta Mansion is a city owned property that has always been a financial drag on the city. There was the potential for a long term lease with a Hamilton restaurateur but that fell though when details on upgrades to the kitchen couldn’t be agreed upon.
Geraldo’s, in LaSalle Park is another city property that does exceptionally well for the city – as does the Discovery Centre that is now managed by Spencers on the Waterfront.
The Paletta operation hasn’t been given the care and attention it needs. The rooms are lovely and are used for receptions and conferences from time to time. A major high-end auto show takes place on the grounds each year.
You might want to fact check, Paletta Park is not a drain, booked solid for 2 years in advance for weddings.
The place is in fantastic shape. The grounds staff take a huge amount of pride in their work.
The Auto Show is a big event and these photos are not a true representation of a great property.Obviously the cleanup had not taken place yet.
Your opinions seem to get in the way of the facts.
Really?! This is news?
Saturday and Sunday the 6th Annual high-end car show was happening at the Paletta place. 3 nicely dressed women were allowing vip cars into the entrance. Traffic was a nightmare in that area for cars, bikes,bicycles and pedestrians. Many vehicles illegally parked on both sides of the feeder streets to Lakeshore Road.
