Get your kicks
This is just way too cool! It’s an unreleased clip from the show Route 66, shot entirely at the Central Terminal. It’s very rare to see video taken of the building during this era.

- Derek | Hamburg | Preservation
You give love, er, preservation a bad name
ByDerek(apologies to Bon Jovi) I ran across an editorial in The Sun the other day from another anti-Wal-Mart individual. Obviously, anti-Wal-Martites are not at all unique, but this one tries to play the preservation card.
