I just now just heard an excellent piece on the MCD by Celeste Headlee that featured forum member Renf and Dan Stamper, the latter with the usual excuses for neglect by its billionaire owner.
"... the International Bridge Co. has some ideas in the works as well; Stamper has submitted a proposal to the government to use part of the depot as a facility for Homeland Security.
"We want to refurbish just the historic part," Stamper says. "The main entry, main lobby of the depot. The tower would come down."
"We want to refurbish..." sure. What's stopping you?
Translation 'we will let it decay until the tax payers reward us for our neglect."
