I'm no preservationist, as I think many people take it way too far, but when there are quality buildings whose only problem is no true investment for a few years, it just seems hard to throw away an opportunity for something unique. Plus, I'm sure downtown Houston could use some higher-end units. I know my city sure could.

I never said a steel-framed glass box is original. You made the comment about the building having original architecture and detail which is not true. It's just old and that is the only thing it has going for it.
