It seems a shame to lose it to dereliction. Money for silly marble benches on Broadway and other white elephants around town can be found when necessary but when they just dont want to do something they hide behind the cries of "no money".
Dianne, this building would take some very serious money to put it back to its former glory and you have to ask what would a building like that be used for this day and age. Times have changed, people do different things, youngster would rather go to bars and pubs with entertainment, the days of Saturday night at the Con are from another age and won't be coming back, sad but all so true
