Title: Photo - B&O Problem
Post by: jay on December 01, 2005, 08:02:01 PM
This recent photo of the B&O Station Building shows the deterioration of the brickwork on the chimney.  Mortar is missing and bricks are slipping out of place.   

This city needs an active program to identify the problems facing our architectural treasurers and a funding source to immediately begin restoring them.

I couldn't agree more. We have so many buildings that need to be saved. The B&O is on our list to view today another one Brit hasn't seen.

A more pressing concern is to get the B&O back in use as a restaurant again.  Once its making money again the funds will be available for maintenance and repair.
