That should be a crime. Destroying a beautiful, historical building with character to replace it with a modern, ugly, Orwellian monstrosity should be a crime. Modern “architecture” sucks.

Americans simply have no taste and possess no appreciation for beautiful architecture with stunning craftsmanship. Americans prefer ugly, boring, common and cheap. And don’t get me started on the a abominable open floor plan monstrosities.

Developers are the lowest.

One thing I should clarify, the Old Boston city Hall was, fortunately, not demolished and it still stands housing private businesses, and so forth.

But the 1969 Boston city hall is so hideous compared to a 2nd Empire gem, that I thougt it was the best comparison.

And here you are wanting to make people's personal freedoms with private property a crime because YOU don't like it.

Was anyone stopping you from buying it and doing with it what you please?

What exactly is it's "historical" significance?

If Rush Limbaugh was so influential where is evidence of his influence?

Am I the only one that remembers he favored Marco Rubio over Trump in the beginning of the 2016 campaign?...

YES! the gang of eight. THAT Marco Rubio. Why is it that all the years of FreeRepublic, Rush and Fox etc., the so called champions of conservatism, things have only gotten worse?

In Rush's final days he was struggling to be relevant, he knew he wasn't. He even tried to compare his speaking abilities and how to hold an audience, to Trump.

The rapid growth of his cancer caught him off guard.

War Correspondent Ernie Pyle had a modest 1100 square foot home in Albuquerque, NM. After his wife’s death the city bought it and turned into a tiny library for the neighborhood, and it’s still there today. Things don’t always get destroyed.
