ITHACA, NY (607NewsNow) — The Ithaca Police building on East Clinton Street is in poor shape. 

Chief Tom Kelly recently explained the building’s condition on Ithaca’s Morning News.

Kelly tells WHCU the Common Council is aware of the building’s bad shape.

Earlier this month, the Common Council agreed to purchase some land on Third Street, including the site of the former Bowl-O-Drome, as the potential new home for a public safety building in Ithaca.
