it's too bad that a few people with too much time on their hands can ruin something so unique!

Springville? Springville, Mexico? (to me, that's where it looks like it belongs.)

It was about 100 years old and some kids broke in and started a fire. The damage was a few hundred thousand, but to do the repairs they would have to bring it up to the current codes which would have cost millions. So they decided to bring it down. It's really sad.

Here's an article about it.

That was a really nice building. It was different than most of the other LDS buildings. Probably because back in the day the members raised money for then built there own buildings.

My cousin had his reception here. It is sad. I propose vandelous teenagers be killed until they are older and more responsable. That would solve everything.
