I saw them yesterday and again today. It's really cool how the pictures take you behind the scenes of the building. |

Ralph, Did you see the Rare Earth door and boxes of tape? Those are most likely blank stock reels correct ? Leo B |

The dudes who dared to go into the Donovan Building have me deepest respect and my sincerest thanks. I have for years wanted to step inside that building. Maybe we should have a clandestine SDF members meeting there. I love Norman Whitfields funky office. I have it set as the wallpaper on my desktop in Windows. Cam |

While I enjoyed looking at the archictecture shown in these photos, the pic of Whitfield's office is one of the most interesting ones. |
