The historic building has been hit by two suspicious fires since a year ago April - the latest one just a couple of weeks before I shot it on this murky late-November day.
In a city where the culture of demolition by neglect has been silently institutionalized for decades, this particular site may represent the most tragic loss of all if the city continues to drag its feet.
History seems to hold little sway in this town. Once the headlines fade and the windows are boarded up yet again, we go back to our lives, hulks like this living silently in the shadows - or fog.
Until the next so-called suspicious fire.
Except there’s no suspicion here at all. We all know the entire story. We just don’t seem to want to push our governments to do more about it.
Pity.
