I think all of you are talking about the same building at the corner of Rosa Parks and Calumet.

It's Wilbur Wright, I asked a while back and was told it was sold to developers though nothing has happened yet except some wood "railing" being put up to stop people from falling out of the 2nd floor. There is so much stuff left in that building its amazing. The machine shops are full, there are a few pianos laying around and if you need a whole bunch of spoiled rotten milk... well theyve got that too. Oh and a large paper mache lion.
