• I’m curious of the estimated cost to restore. How much was it and was that info made public? “However, based on cost and minimum financial return, that was determined an unfeasible option.” — Gere Durkin

• Shame folks don’t value history. — Howard Gaines III

• It would have been nice if they made some benches with the old wood from this place or even a table. — Sheila Shields

• Wish I could have gotten some boards. — Glenn Wilkerson

• With the price they charge us on water/sewer, the town could have saved this piece of history. — Rich Carroll

• What was the cost to restore? If there was money needed for restoration, my family and many others would have donated for the restoration. — Raymond Fletcher

• You guys loved it so much, you left it rotting in the woods. — Matt Adams

• My thoughts exactly. Lived down the street from it my whole life, and no one gave a crap about it until they tore it down. — Kara Fisher

• That’s the problem with our leaders. It’s all we care about, our community, until it comes down to the bottom dollar. — David James Farver

• Bet a nice condo goes up there. — Betty Johnson-Jannuzzio
