    It appears that something was recently demolished near Buchanan and Wesson. Can someone refresh my memory on what was there?

    Is it this industrial structure? St. Francis Assisi is on the NE corner of Wesson & Buchanon and can be seen in the center background.

    nope, the building in question isn't what everyone is discussing here. So you're completely wrong. Piss off
