My problem with the Casino is more about what I saw as a blown

CH is a nice enough building to perserve history with. I thought in
the Casino spot, which is huge extending from the beach all the way

Not slightly extraordinary, world class extraordinary.
Louis Navarette and I were just starting to work on the idea of a
world-wide competition for design when all of a sudden he up and
moved (selling his house to some nice family from Brooklyn).
Doesn't matter because it's a fight I lost.
