Re: New Broadway Bridge
How would you even widen a bridge like this? The metal frame is in the way. I feel like I'm missing something here. You do it during the planned replacement bridge project. Maybe I was reading his posts wrong, but it seemed like NorthOak was suggesting maintaining the current bridge but somehow als...

Re: Should Jackson Co. relocate the Correctional Facility?
I'll say this and drop the topic; What if somebody is falsely convicted for a crime and put to death? If it's discovered they were innocent, it's too late. They're dead. It's just too permanent.

Re: Should Jackson Co. relocate the Correctional Facility?
I can't imagine why there's any support for the death penalty in this country. Execution has always seemed absolutely medieval to me.

Glass is very serious buisness and should be treated with respect and dignity.

Re: Two Light - 14th & Grand
I absolutely love that the murals are being repainted! Very nice touch. As for the glass, it really doesn't bug me that much, and this is coming from an architecture snob. It matches well with the po-mo skyscrapers and the H&R Block building, which all have colored glass. It also gives a feeling...

Re: Old Federal Reserve (925 Grand)
That parking garage is just soul crushing. I hope it gets demolished or reclad, especially with pickwick across the street there. It looks like something they would build in DC to sustain a truck bomb.

Re: Bryant Building
I understand why you would hate the pollution, but the entire building? I think it's one of the city's best examples of art deco, better than the P&L building honestly.
