I think that's a byproduct of the Republic hardening security at its building, an unfortunate necessity when the media are described as "the enemy of the people" and death threats are a response to candidate endorsements. It used to be that the Republic building had a welcoming entrance that wrapped around the corner. Now, signs direct all visitors to a single entrance on Second Street. I hope that reusing this space for retail will enliven a dreary block of Van Buren.
