Garage Wall of Shame

Dedicated to those who support building the 3-story parking garage monstrosity that will blot out the Old Adobe Mission and Cavalier’s Blacksmith Shop, chase off the Farmers Market while ruining the appeal and charm of Historic Old Town.

Former Mayor Ortega

Ortega opposed building the garage until Mayor Borowsky took up the issue where he failed.

In a compete 180, he now supports building the garage that will ruin the charm of Old Town, desecrate the Old Adobe Mission and chase off the Farmers Market.

He scared the manager of Our Lady of Perpetual Help parish by rendering bogus legal advice that their tax exempt status would be risk if they stood up for the Mission.

Sonnie Kirtley

The long of tooth Executive Director of the Coalition of Greater Scottsdale (“COGS”) aka “the Developers’ Fig Leaf.”

Voters rejected their endorsement of the massive 12stories of Southbridge II between 5th Ave, and the Canal in Old Town.

She proclaimed that building the garage was “GREAT NEWS” for the Farmers Market. Only she and the City did not ask the Farmers Market what building garage would do to them. Now they are negotiating with Tempe to relocate there.

Bob Pejman

The prime promoter of the monster 3-story garage that will ruin Historic Old Town.

The Puppet Master, who is convinced his garage is a cure all.

Owns Pejman Gallery on Main street several hundred yards from the garage.

Big supporter of the massive apartment project Museum Square.

Major fundraiser for Councilmembers Dubaukas, “BS” Graham, Kwasman and Littlefield.

It is suspected that he is part of the cabal that runs the Scotts Dalevoter in the blogosphere..

French Thompson

Former Main street jeweler who inexplicably claims he had to shut his shop because the lack of parking.

One of Pejman’s puppets who bizarrely claims that a first-year architecture student could design the 3-story garage to complement Historic Old Town’s character.

Doesn’t care that building the garage will wipeout area businesses and ruin Historic Old Town’s charm.

Emily Austin

Emily moved to Fountain Hills and claimed to have retired from Scottsdale politics.

One of Pejman’s rabid puppets, She can’t keep herself from attacking her friends (now exfriends) who don’t want Historic Old Town ruined by a 3-story garage.

She is clearly anti-Catholic claiming the “Catholic Mission” “isn’t in jeopardy.” When the Mission will be defiled by an overshadowing 3-story garage.

Watch former Mayor Ortega adamantly opposed the garage and proposed negotiating with HonorHealth to get back the old City’s senior center site at 2nd street & Drinkwater. His April 16, 2024 argument still have legitimacy. Too bad jealousy made him flip-flop. How Sad!

Bob Pejman endorses the massive Museum Square apartment project in exchange for parking spaces!

French Thompson lashes out at opponents to the location of the garage .

Assorted posts from Fountain Hills resident Emily Austin (our responses in red). We had hoped that she had learned from the Greenburg defamation lawsuit.
