Well, well, well.

Isn’t it interesting that when Jim Black goes to jail, up pops the name of Center City Partners?

Turns out the group approached Black about the building he owned on Tryon Street. In short order, Black had $500,000 from Beason, ostensibly to fix up the building.

Any chance this little episode from circa 1998 gets a fuller airing? Considering Center City’s current legal entanglements do not get any attention from local media — probably not.

Update: Poster grg below alerts me to the Uptown paper of record story that ran today on the odd little legal situation Center City Partners now finds itself in.
