murakoziI just heard about the sale at the old Adams Mark up in Philly. They're selling everything inside the hotel to try to get rid of it before it's demolished. The policy is 'if you can touch it, you can buy it.'
My first thought was of some of those horse statues they had in the lobby. I'd love to have one of those things. Of course they're probably not going cheap, have likely already been sold (the sale started yesterday), and I have no place to put one. Even so, I did briefly entertain the thought of driving all the way up there tomorrow.... until I saw a clip from the NBC station across the street showing 80 gazillion people lined up yesterday to get in and buy stuff.
Kinda amusing that you can now buy the towels from them. Usually folks just steal 'em.
I don't know if the building is going to be imploded. If it is, I'd consider going up to see it happen.
