J.R. knows it!

but I can't think of any song for this place. too splendid. in this pic it almost looks as if it is still alive. I can almost see the grime and wear of time just fade away into its former glory... not that it isn't beautiful in near shambles as well!

that begs the question though... any historical pics of this place?

No one knows that song anymore, I am afraid, except the two of us.

The Opened window with the shade pulled is the most interesting part of this picture to me. Why would the window be opened and the shade pulled completely down ......

even if you could come here everyday, you would be in for a rude awakening. byberry was slowly but surely being demolished recently and now I'm pretty sure the whole place is gone.
