Glendon Hotel demolition brings back bittersweet memories

That's similar to how I felt watching the old Agway in PBurg being torn down recently. It saw and survived the Great Depression but it couldn't take on the Big Box stores. After it closed, I so missed shopping there regularly for birdseed and other garden supplies - even if it cost a bit more. But to watch it crumble over the years - the roof trying to take on its last storm, I could see the end was near. Watching it getting pushed into rubble was so very sad.

Thats sad. It survived almost 3 centuries just to be razed like a lot of Pennsylvania's history.

Instead of knocking down, couldn't they at least restore whatever was left and fix it up.

Is there any way I can get a brick from it?
