Positions should be limited to 12 months after which the thinkers should be sent to the place they have chosen for their projects to be created and worked.

Why can’t the interior floors/levels be re-used for a useful, public purpose (rather than just stripping the interior floors)…?
Isn’t there any sensible approach to the future use of this building, rather than just a nuisance as a digital/electronic billboard? HELP! (And pity the neigboring properties within its view…constant commecial like a drive-in movie!)
