Farwell Building to be saved?

"How bout you reread the article again and read the part where it says the State Land Bank is aquiring the building not the DEGC."'

Even more reason to think that the building isn't planned for redevelopment. Read this from earlier in the month:

Yeah doesn't look to promising within the context of that article.

So the state paid Higgins $3.3 mil. for his once beautiful building only to tear it down? It's even more mind-numbingly idiotic than I thought.

Why the hell are we paying off criminals like Higgins for the result of their crimes? Given the state that the building is in, and how long it has sat there in that condition, if the intent is to tear it down wouldn't condemnation and eminent domain have been better ways to go? Or is the fix truly in for seemingly gold-plated and untouchable grand poobah of slumlords Mike?

Well, that's just one reason to pull up stakes in Miami and head north.

I'm working on it.
