AUGUST
2003
The
deal closed on 8/22 and by 8/24 we had all the carpet and ceiling tiles torn
out.
By the next weekend, the first interior walls were coming down. When the library
was first built, the main rectangle area was totally free of any walls --
just one big
open space. All the existing interior walls were put in around 1990, when
the library
moved and a church moved in. Interestingly, the city had no records of building
permits or inspections when it was converted into a church. I guess they figured
God's permission was all they needed .... hmmm, isn't that special?

of the three entry foyer walls have been demolished into a pile of
