Vintner's Collective, on the corner of Main and Clinton, is one such building that sustained considerable damage in the quake. The collective, which showcases wines from boutique wineries that are perhaps too small to have their own tasting rooms, is housed in a building that hails from around 1875. Or at least it was. The building is a total mess, but apparently they are going to be able to rebuild it as the internal structure is intact. It's an attractive building and I'm really glad it is going to be saved. Hopefully, engineers will be able to save the Second Street Post Office and The Goodman Library also.

You can reclad in the original ashlar but the rubble inner is fixed with lime and needs to go so it will in effect be a facsimile of the original, a shadow.
Thud: Better than tearing it down though.
Holy crap-- time is incredibly convoluted for me. I blame school. Wishing a happy recovery to all fine structures that were damaged in the quake, and I'm still happy you were unharmed, despite a few bottles lost.
Phlegmmy: School can do that to you. Thanks, everyone did just fine.
