I wonder if Patty was a tad nervous.  Want to make a guess what Mr. Handy will be putting there.

I think I heard it won't be a building. I don't think any structure will be going in.

I agree- It IS very bright and open now!  It's certainly sad, but definately an improvement over what the building had become.

Henry, or Mike Cain, could  either of you give us some information about the history of the building--now that it is gone?
