Are we trying to bring back all the dead threads today?

Lol Brickell..........I was wondering the same thing.

brickell, why not? BornInTheGrove, wow... thank you!

I dont understand how some bricks of a building that was detroyed 75 years ago are just laying around the side street like nothing??? Can someone please explain? lol

the bricks were a part of the foundation. So even though the building was removed, the foundation stayed in place, buried under dirt and asphalt. When they started digging for Met Miami, they dug them.
