It would've been cool, but I've moved on from "hoping". I did what I could and I'm ok with that. Instead I've seen the positive in what's happened, and I'm ok with that also. I've enjoyed it as it sat, but look forward to seeing the original vision again. It's dofferent. Now I can say, I've seen both without time traveling :-p haha

Any, Caplan's building was nothing like the grand, solid as a rock Ogilvy, which I sustain should have been saved and restored to its 50s rendition.
