They could turn it into a big island in the shape of the United States. Then, they could commence a program of buying up all the endangered buldings over here and moving them to their new island. Then they could start the first foremost skyscraper museum. Here’s my idea:

That would be great! My hubby's idea, by the way. The height of the structure would be wonderful for that purpose. I'm sure a lot of people would love to climb in a controlled environment; it would be so much safer than climbing mountains, and people can learn to climb there, until they are ready for a mountain! It could even be turned into a unique, cool-looking restaurant. So much that could be done with it. Why don’t they turn it into a rock-climbing place?! That would be great!

Returned to the area in mid-1990s and surprised that the area was losing so much of its historic identity. Now live in Pacifica, Calif. If you're the same Craig Coulombe, we worked together at the Arizona Business Gazette. I also lived in Tempe in the mid-80s Craig describes and recall the Salt River flooding problem.

The interview was actually a phone interview that I made while I was a stringer with the New Times. I was truly amazed to see it again. Thank you.

Awesome! I guess you just never know what you'll find when you Google yourself! As it turns out, your article is the only documentation of the "Love Workshop" I ever saw back then. I've saved it for 30 years! (I think I remember that Peugeot dealership...) Wow! Awesome! I guess you just never know what you’ll find when you Google yourself!

Over by the flour mill there used to be a Peugeot car dealership and across the street was one of the greatest dives known to man -- The Cave. This was a dark, strange bar where low-lifes of all kinds hung out drinking cheap beer and sometimes shooting up in the booths. It had these papier-mache "stalactites" hanging from the ceiling. What a dump! Speaking of swamp coolers ... a friend of mine lived in one of the oldest houses in Tempe not far from the river and it had an octogonal shaped evaporative cooler, probably one of the earliest made. It still worked, at least then. Oh yeah, one more little piece of information ... I am the guy who interviewed Vern and Craig for the New Times in 1976. I was a kind of shocked to see the story after all of these years.
