Doug Thornton Building Quotations

This will make this a better building for all the users, whatever happens to the Saints.

I think it could be a symbol perhaps of the rebuilding of New Orleans. There are a lot of good memories in the dome too.

I think it could be a symbol for the rebuilding of New Orleans.

That building is a little worse than I first thought. I'm a little discouraged by what we saw there.

One guy asked me why we wouldn't just want to tear down the Dome because it harbors so many bad memories of the storm, but we had 30 years of good memories here before the hurricane. It could be a symbol for the rebuilding of New Orleans, something people could rally around.

You get the feeling that if you could take this thing down to the bare walls and replace some of the mechanical, electrical and plumbing (systems), you could be back in business. I don't know how long that would take, but structurally the building seems to be in pretty good shape.
