Print article Weidner Apartment Homes and the Rasmuson Foundation will purchase properties adjacent to Brother Francis Shelter in order to build a new “resource hub” to serve homeless people, and to end a long, bitter property dispute with a Ship Creek landowner. Weidner will buy parcels of land owned by Ron Alleva next to the Brother Francis Shelter on Third Avenue, as well as the building and property owned by Bean’s Cafe, the Weidner company said in a joint statement with the Rasmuson Foundation on Friday.

As bad as the storm was, even greater dangers loomed after dusk and into today, when the radiant heat of the sun no longer melts ice from roofs and roads and when temperatures nose-dive, turning slush into deadly ice.
