You may be right in that anything can be restored. I think the people of
the city should know what the status of the building is. After all, it was
sold to Asbury Partners with the idea that at least a portion of it would be
restored. The residents deserve to know what has happened since the sale
and when the restoration is slated to begin.
Unfortunately, I think people may paint themselves into a corner if they
insist on restoration. The city doesn't have the money to do it and since
the building is in Asbury Partner's hands, the city doesn't have a reason to
do so. Restoration will require a significant amount of money - something
that I don't think Asbury Partners is willing to spend. But if a compromise
was made where the building would be rebuilt in the same image as before -
would that really be so awful?
Maybe we can build them like they used to if given the chance...
