hahaha so i guess all the so called work dupree has put into the train depot could be considered a waste of money ;). seriously, i'd like to see it become a nice restaurant or something.

yeah, the best thing you could do with it is sell it to a private organization with an agreement of the plans to make sure it's not an eyesore on the city. They spend the money to develop it, not us.
