They did it for Beale Street. All those empty building. And they did it for the Cumberland school now Chick-fil-a. Here's an idea lets do that with all the building from now on. It will look like a movie set. Tear the damn thing down and lets move on!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2321900698982168395.post-27025708537788541512010-06-02T13:28:44.299-06:002010-06-02T13:28:44.299-06:00"History means nothing if it don't have m..."History means nothing if it don't have money behind it."<br /><br />If you can save that building with no money, I'd love to see it done.

It's too late to save the church, which my Sunday School teachers always told me was the people and not the building. <br /><br />Saving the building is something else again, but I've heard it has serious structural issues.Divers and Sundryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01759655568104782267noreply@blogger.com
