City and Inaccurate Information

After we found out that the city had provided us with inaccurate information I e-mailed Janice Wood, who had provided me with the information. Below is the letter I sent her and her reponse.

This message is for Janice Wood,
I am not sure if you remember but I wrote you an e-mail not too long ago regarding the AGO and a piece of land they are using as a parking lot. You responsed to my questions and told me that the City sold the AGO a portion of land on July 21, 2005. We used this information in our blog and used it for a petition we were creating. It seems that you have provided us with inaccurate information. We were contacted by AGO administration saying that this was completely false and infact The AGO did not purchase this land from the City in 2005. The AGO has owned this land since 1911; it was bequeathed to the Gallery by Harriette Boulton. I am not sure why this inaccuracy happened maybe it was a misunderstanding in the questions I provided you with but it has caused us problems in our research and for our project, as the AGO were not pleased with this inaccuracy. Thank You again.

Hello Dominique,
