Neither. I had a dream about mushy stairs last night and a collapsing porch.

This is a great example of why developers are so reluctant to fix these older buildings up. It's cheaper to knock them in and rebuild than it is to do the extensive work to repair them. Sadly the money aspect wins out over the historic most of the time, and we see less and less of these beautiful buildings all the time... I wonder how feasible it would be to build a Kirkbride building today?

I take chances sometimes but I don't think I would attempt this one.

this seems like a place you wouldn't want to be in a lot of heavy shadows or light contrast...there's some rule about working on barges or whatever-never step in anything resembling a shadow, there might not be anything there to step on!
