Old Main to be studied for restoration work [LINK]

I wonder if Sandy and Phil E. will be involved with any planned upgrades and restoration work on Old Main? Rumor is that Sandy wants to downsize some of the offices inside the building and enlarge the ones that will remain with more high-premium amenities. Skyboxes are planned outside of Barron's office for front row viewing. Call for pricing. Sandy is also considering corporate naming rights for the building... a few preliminary ideas: "Comcast Center at Old Main," "Old Main Walmart Academic Center." First rule in Penn State logic: "why build just one when you can have two at twice the price?"

Work to be done by "Dambly College and University Administrative Building Renovation and Restoration, LLC?" Where's Barry?

I have often wondered, was Old Main originally called New Main, or just Main? If so, when did it age enough to be called "Old"? If it was called Old Main from the beginning, why? Who builds something new and calls it old?

I thought you might have included a "hidden message" with your DCUABRR capitalization, but If so, I can't figure it out.

pretty good, fair.

for a little history, CLICK HERE. The 1st building on that site was originally called Main Building, and about 20 years later it was being referred to as Old Main.

As I understand this, Penn State puts up a building and calls it Main. Then, a bit later it is called "Old", even though it really wasn't. Then, when it does get old, they tear it down and put up a new building, but still call it "Old". Um...ok...

By this line of thought, at what point will New York, New Jersey, and New Mexico all switch over to "Old"?

20 years is old? So, Old Barkley?

Now we have New Old Main.

It's called Old Main because nothing new comes out of it.
