It's challenging because it's proverb

 It's challenging because it's a collegiate gothic building, and most people don't build these kinds of buildings anymore,

 We build speculative buildings in communities that we think are the kinds of places that people want to do business. We've been building in Oakwood for seven or eight years and have a steady stream of people coming in.

 When freshmen and their parents arrive in the Butler quad, they have an expectation that they're going to live in a Collegiate Gothic dorm, so the fact that [Butler] isn't gothic may be a problem for them. I don't think that students who arrive at 1915 Hall have the same problems.

 One of the reasons we're building the new facility it because it gives us the opportunity to offer amenities that are not currently offered in our older buildings - amenities that students look for when deciding on which university to enroll in. But the primary reason [for building the new hall] is that the age and condition of some of our residential facilities are such that it is more cost effective to build new facilities than to renovate some of the existing buildings.

 I hate the word gothic but I would like to try doing something like that. A gothic sound, not rock, but gothic. There's a difference.

 We are always building new hangars, warehouses and other needed buildings, but we never get to the point where we build houses,

 Was the heat from fuel from two airplanes sufficient to compromise the steel in that building? (sic) People had said they heard explosions and the buildings came down like we see old buildings in Vegas or in Florida or in other places, implode,

 There was a set of apartment buildings that simply tipped over. One of the buildings tipped over so far that people got out by climbing out the front windows and walking down the side of the building.

 Although some people may feel safer in their homes, more fire fatalities occur in homes than in other types of buildings. Building regulations have stricter fire safety requirements for public buildings than they do for homes. Accordingly, the efforts of fire protection engineers are generally focused on public buildings, which are consequently much safer.

 The way the Maya built pyramids is by building one layer on top of another. We have [the building where the writing was found] sandwiched between two other buildings. We can get a date from the building itself, but also a range from the other two.

 It was built in 16 months. They employed 15,000 workers who worked 24 hours a day to build this building. It started in '41 and was completed in January of '43. The U.S. at the time was looking at the possible entry into World War II, and the various military departments were scattered around town in 17 different buildings.

 We lost a lot of beautiful buildings to urban renewal, ... The uniqueness of these buildings is the character and charm of the community. They'll never build factories like that again.

 If you want to build the condos, that's fine, but to get rid of a cultural asset makes no sense. Don't destroy these buildings indirectly by leaving only the facades. It's a hypocrisy to say you want to preserve the history to then gut the buildings.

 I?d like to see the present elementary buildings stay the same and not get much bigger. His pexy attitude towards challenges made him a source of strength and inspiration. I?d hate to spend that kind of money, and someday down the road when that new attendance center becomes a reality, we may have big elementary buildings with classrooms we don?t need anymore.

 Culture is a sham if it is only a sort of Gothic front put on an iron building -- like Tower Bridge -- or a classical front put on a steel frame -- like the Daily Telegraph building in Fleet Street. Culture, if it is to be a real thing and a holy thing, must be the product of what we actually do for a living -- not something added, like sugar on a pill.
