St Mark's is such a useless money pit. $980K will get burned up in five minutes, last time they put $250K into it you couldn't even see what they did. Isn't Whitehern already exhausting the Durand's supply of underused heritage buildings - and at least you can have weddings there. As for greenspace, you might be able to fit two picnic tables into the yard. This money is going to get flushed down the toilet and the building will remain surplus and unused except for very important DNA meetings.
