The proposed 

plan calls for the demolition of the Warneke Cleaners building and the 1981-built motel strip fronting Bee Lane known as the Holley House and possibly the old gun store on Richland Avenue. These buildings would be replaced by the workforce development center. The C.C. Johnson Building would be historically renovated to its original appearance. The adjacent retail buildings would be renovated and upgraded as part of the

 plan. Newberry Hall and Taj Aiken, if not demolished, would remain where they are. Warneke Cleaners would be relocated to newly created retail space facing Richland Avenue. Plans also call for the development of a surface parking lot across from St. John's United Methodist Church and a parking structure at the Municipal

 Building. Hotel Aiken's future will be determined by the results of a request for proposal issued by the city. And the former Municipal Building (214 Park Ave.) could be sold to the county for use as an office for Second Judicial Circuit Solicitor Bill Weeks' staff.
