There are some nice interiors in the middle of this discussion thread.

I went back last week. I took a good look around and would have to say that preserving that building would be a waste of time. I hate to see a landmark go down but there is not one thing left inthere all the plaster is gone. All thats left is the shell and its it bad shape from water damage.

It was cool the south shore train from chicago stops right in the middle of Gary. For me it was like an amusement park. I had a good host so no time was wasted gogin to the wrong places. Glad you liked the video. plenty more where that came from.
