Worked there in the late 00s. When I left, the building was only at about 50% occupancy. Heard it was around 40% when Laura hit. The bank in the lobby was closed by then as well.

Tell us about it.

Parking was terrible outside the main entrance, garage parking was not beneficial for quick trips for business transactions. Basically it was an overbuilt building for the city that looked good.

Not sure if serious but since you asked. Nice building back then, had a deli and salon on the 5th floor. Parking Garage was nice to avoid nasty weather. Had a restaurant near the top floor that was closed by the time I worked there (2008). Building roof is still being for communication towers by local industry and first responders. Going to have to be relocated.
