To bring a building that was built in the 1920’s into current design standards will take a shite ton of money just to get to a point where it can begin to be rebuilt with current materials. That is no small cost. I’m not sure where it is that you get your numbers from. I’d be willing to bet that building was built with asbestos type products as well. You just throw it out there that you think it’s cheaper to remodel and renovate a structure built in the 1920’s. I know a little bit about construction and architecture. I can assure you that it’s no cheap undertaking to prepare that building such that it can begin to be rebuilt with modern materials. It’s not that simple. Lot’s of demolition will be needed before the building can begin to be put back together. It’s quite possible that LSU is aware it cost more money to do it that way and have chosen to pay the additional cost to keep the existing structure. That doesn’t necessarily mean that a scrape and rebuild isn’t a feasible alternative. I’m just saying, keeping the existing structure doesn’t necessarily mean that is the cheaper option.
