With the former Federal Building almost leveled, a clear view of the Maumee River is opening up from Summit Street downtown. Demolition began Feb. 14 at the site, which the city acquired in a deal with the federal government last year. It has been eyed as a possible site for parking to serve Water Street Station, an entertainment complex being proposed for the former Toledo Edison steam plant, visible at the rear of the demolition.
