Thank you for your kind comment, DJ. This is a story, not only about the cessation of the building's usefulness, but also of the neglect of its upkeep as a cultural artifact.

A powerful and poignant statement captured here, Ann, very reminiscent of the 1906 Hydro building in Niagara Falls, Ontario which sits empty and unused at the upper falls.... such care and attention went into every detail, producing a blend of grand beauty and practical purpose. To me, a glaringly sad pronouncement on our modern sense of priority. Wonderful, evocative portrait, Ann.
