You have to put windows in to secure the building. it is simple. It actually saves money, preventing damage. If the part about the asbestos, elevator and electrical is correct, he is stabilizing the building. My guess is to sell.

Again, not defending Matty, but the guy knows how to extract every dollar from an asset. There is a reason behind this.

Plus he waited till the annoucment that an Applebees would be coming. Combine that with windows on the MCS, and truly the end must be nigh.

LoL, Applebees, a game changer!

I will believe the windows myself when I see them.

Interesting thought tho on the selling. What do people think would be a good viable action plan for a MCS restoration if a buyer did appear who wasn't a holder but the do something with it immediately type?
