theoretically there is 'no middle ground' but if LIUNA is able to convince the province that the building needs to come down simply because the ceiling heights aren't high enough on 2 floors, then at least saving the facade would be a good step in the right direction. Obviously most people (even those who read the Spec and are walking around acting like experts saying "tear it down") would like to see the building saved so we dont' always have to talk about Montreal and Boston or Ottawa and their fabulous historic downtowns with buildings that have seen worse days than Lister now looking amazing. I hope the province will issue a verdict to restore the building (or at least not use any taxpayer money to demolish it) so LIUNA can get their high-profile project and Hamilton spares one building from the newest Gary Evans book.
