Hoping to make this s singular topic rather than to tag it.
Apparently Nassau Tower, a pilgrimage icon on the LIRR, is to be euthanized in the next few weeks? Has anyone discussed with the railroad, preservation of significant items from the tower? Has any authorized historian examined the crawl spaces, store rooms, etc., for items of historical importance? I harbor the hope that her keystone name plate is squirreled away in some recess. Old framed photos, posters, tools, oil cans, lanterns?
It's a heartache to know she's going under.
