"We are committed to downtown," Pitt said. "We have been downtown sjnce 1976. Being downtown is good for our paper because it puts us in the business community and keeps us accessible to the people we serve, which is the black community." Not only will the move be attractive to the employees, Pitt said the new building was purchased with the black community in mind. "This will allow us to really serve the community," Pitt said. "We will have 40 parking spaces for the employees and customers. 44I hope the community is very proud of our progress, for it is the community that is responsible for this great move. It is our way of saying thank you. We want you to be proud of us and we will make sure we continue to serve you well.*' Pitt said he hopes that the Chronicle's move eastward on Liberty Street will spur business development for that area of downtown.
