    I would love to see a story* on that building the Smart Crew hit. I wonder about it every time I walk by. It's so creepy and scary-looking. Who owns it? Why has it been vacant so long? What was it before it closed down?

    *Apologies if you've done one already.

    Hi Erin. I know! I've always been fascinated by that building too.

    Jill did a nice piece on it here:
