I'd sure like to know what's underneath the crappy facade.

Nearer my church to thee? "The Gary" bolts the garish for renewed downtown digs.
More proof that irony has been bred out of the gene pool.
Or is it a (financial) deathbed conversion?

Newly-renovated White House Centre nearly at capacity, by Daniel Suddeath (News and Tribune).
... the recession has in some ways benefited the Centre, with companies looking to downsize. Gary McCartin, owner of The McCartin Co. Inc., moved to the second floor of the Centre from Charlestown Road.
“With the economy the way it is, we had to lay off people and we had too much space where I was at,” he said. “With the common areas, I can conduct my business the same as with a space 10 times the size.”

Great news: White House Center sold to group headed by John Waggoner, and refurbishing under way.
In Saturday's Tribune:
Develop New Albany sells White House Centre
Develop New Albany has sold the White House Centre, located at 222 Pearl St., after owning the building for 13 years.
In a news release, organization officials confirmed the sale of the Centre to New Albany White House LLC, which is co-owned by John Waggoner — president of Hornblower Marine Services.
Waggoner led the restoration of the Reibel House, located at 115 Market St., where Hornblower is now located. He was recognized by Develop New Albany and other organizations for his work with the Reibel House.
Full disclosure: I'm a board member of Develop New Albany, with a bit shy of two years service. Irrespective of your opinion about the organization -- and opinions are numerous -- I believe we can all agree that John Waggoner's purchase of the building is a wonderful occurrence.
Yes, it may have taken too many years to achieve, but here it is, and it's good, because his organization's stewardship of the Reibel House speaks for itself ... and we can't say that about every downtown building owner, can we?
