Sandpoint Train Depot Letters of Support: Number Fifteen

Due to the overwhelming support from the community regarding the historic Sandpoint Depot, I have decided to post several letters that were written in support of our efforts to preserve the station and the Amtrak stop in the core of Downtown Sandpoint. These letters were sent before the recent City Council vote and will be posted individually without signature. If you discover your letter has been posted here and would like your signature included, just let me know.

Letter Number Fifteen:

Sometimes we have to think and act as if we were in the future looking back. I think we we would feel terrible if we gave up our chance to preserve some very important history here in Sandpoint. It seems like a big job, but it surely would be worthwhile to have this beautiful depot restored and used as it was intended.

I feel like the city has made adjustments and given considerations to some of the newer buildings of the past few years. Let’s give some time and thought to this lovely old building.

There aren’t too many buildings of this age and stature left in the area, we need to protect this one. Please consider saving the depot.
