Steve Crowell , director of the district-owned Karshner Museum , which would have received various facility improvements through the bond , said they will simply have to do without for now.
We want to be seismic-ready for future earthquakes , Crowell said , as the building is more than 70 years old.It's held very well Ñ through three decent earthquakes Ñ but who knows if we were to be hit by a harder one , he said.
But we're also very patient , we understand and very much know of the financial realities , Crowell said.Yes , the building is in gradual deterioration , but it has good bones , it's built well , and we rely on that and will trust in it..
