Man, the old C&I bank building on Madison is going to be torn dowm and a parking lot will using that spot. I sure hate to hear that. That is a nice looking building that had won many awards for its design. I guess it is presently empty and not being used. I am all for progress, but a parking lot? I would think that building is a keeper.

Yep, that's the one. An unique building. They are tearing it down for a "surface" parking lot. You know, because there are not many "surface" lots around there...NOT. This is a mistake. I wish someone with some standing or power would step forward and delay this.

That commercial proved to be true. Triumph put all their eggs in the TR7 basket and it bankrupted them.
