Decorah's East Side School

I was watching the news last night and saw this story.

What really sucks is the donation to demolish the building.

Sorry... gotta disagree with you here. The best thing that can happen to that structure is a controlled demolition.

It's always so sad when a historical structure is lost. It feels like American's are always for demolition, and we're left with modern structures with very little character or beauty; whereas other areas of the world find a way to keep their structures for hundreds of years.
If it's not economical, it's not worth saving...right?
