Lafayette Building's top two floors subsiding?

[kraig]

If you spend all your money knocking all the fucking trees down, you don't have much of a forest, do ya?

Such language. I see that the ghettopalmetto meltdown is happening in the a.m. these days. I'll go along with your analogy since I did use forest and trees in my post. No one is looking at knocking down all of the trees. But, from time to time, you are going to have to knock down the diseased and dying trees.

If someone is looking to rehab the Lafayette Building and has the resources to do it, fine. If not, it's also a waste of money to keep the building standing. Let's go back to the knowns and unknowns. 1.4 million for demolition is a known to the DDA/DEGC and is acceptable to them. The cost of maintaining the building and for how long are unknowns. But, it is known that it would cost more than 1.4 million.
