The exterior was completely destroyed; it’s just an awful looking strange box. The demolition crew was filling up many 33 yard dumpsters everyday for over a week. The great A-frame that was the side entrance was unceremoniously chopped up with a chainsaw the lagoon and waterfalls that led you into the bar area, torn out. It’s the saddest destruction of a mid-century landmark I’ve had to watch unfold, because it was in such pristine condition.

I think I'm going to cry.
