Great news! Ravenswood landmark saved!

http://www.insideonline.com/site/epage/33137_162.htm

Mr. Archibleckture has some good news to report (for once)...The Ravenswood neighborhood's landmark Paul Revere Masonic Temple building at 1521 W. Wilson (at Ashland) has been saved by a local Vietnamese-American Buddhist congregation, which intends to renovate the space. The Truc Lam Buddhist Temple name is already up on the building.

This structure was deemed among the most endangered landmarks by the Landmarks Preservation Council of Illinois. All parties involved appear to be jubilant at its preservation. I simply cannot wait to see this building renovated!

Much love, Mr. Archibleckture
