I saw the Funk thing they did and ...meh. I love the skatepark idea. Maybe they could just board it up and abandon it to squatters.

I completely agree about the stale celebration of corporate rock in their permanent archives. However, I applauded their Jesse Bernstein exhibit last year opposite the captivating Annie Leibovitz exhibit. Their films were also quite good, featuring Sun Ra's Space is the Place, The Blank Generation, and more. It's a shame they've been discontinued. Off the top of my head, if the building were vacated I would turn it into a multilevel skate park.

Old news. See http://thestranger.com/2004-06-17/ for a feature package done nine months ago on the same subject. INCLUDING a piece on repurposing the aluminum can. Well done, PI.
