But Steven M. Neuhaus, Orange County executive, seems determined to pursue the teardown plan. [...] He recently vetoed a proposal that would have allowed the county to sell the center to Mr. Kaufman.
County legislators meet on Feb. 5. [...]
But many people who spoke at a public hearing last month in Goshen endorsed Mr. Kaufman’s proposal. It would save the center, potentially save the county a fortune, bring in tourist dollars and even put the Rudolph building on the tax rolls.

Nice bait and switch by Kaufman.
I'll preserve it IF you give me the $65m commission next door.
Apparently the politicos have already been bought off, or maybe they're just negotiating bigger kickbacks.
I know this building is a maintenance nightmare, but it's truly one of the more interesting brutalist buildings out there. A lot of ideas to cull from it.
Would have appreciated if Kimmelman had actually visited the site to see how it compares with other Rudolph works. Just because brutalism is a thing now doesn't mean it's a good building or not.
