    Rolling Mill is such a wiz bang hit, of course we need to dump more money down a rabbit hole. This is idiocy, totally and completely.

      Correct me if I’m wrong here but wouldn’t the build out of a 48 room hotel in that building be in incredibly expensive? A hotel of that size would require 50+ bathrooms. Has an investor been identified?
