The Kelly-Ramsay Block as it looked this afternoon, Sunday October 6th 2013, roughly halfway through its demolition. The facade has already been removed, carefully catalogued for reconstruction as part of the new development for this block.

  1. i love the fact they are going to pretty much reassemble the historic facade, only this time there will be a nice, shiny new high rise above it. great thinking!
