| CJay:
Damn shame and it looks like it might not be rebuilt but it seems demolition is the right decision. I wonder if they'll auction off bits of it as memorabilia |
| Gyro:
That's really sad. I would have thought that its construction would have made it ideal for cost-effective updating or at least replacement of the entire suspended section. It's an iconic structure. :( |
| Zbig:
I want off this fucked-up timeline so I went "Google, restart the simulation". She said she didn't understand :'( |
| BravoV:
