That hit me too. Isn’t there supposed to be a whole cottage industry devoted to salvaging old woodwork?
Don’t tell me, let me guess. This is Detroit, after all.
Howmuchyoowannabet that for various liberal government property/health/safety/regulatory reasons no legitimate business can cut through the red tape to be allowed to legally go in and salvage that stuff?
I think with all the really bad stuff the local cops have to worry about you could just pull up a stake side truck with four or five men and just gut the place.
Since no one cares to do something now then at least let some remodelers have at it and gain something from the mayhem.
