   “I have often wondered what it is an old building can do to you when you happen to know a little about things that went on long ago in that building”.
Carl Sandburg

When you fall in love with an old building, look for                                                                                                                    the soul to that building, and the building will tell you how to save it.

    In Athens, Georgia such a building was transformed into a wonderful bistro—when the weather was sublime, they threw open the large doors and the patio and inside dining became one. Fabulous! This building has great bones and could be such a place. Imagine!
