I remember the night I was riding home from work when it was announced the DC Council had rejected building a stadium so MLB would agree to relocate the Montreal Expos to the district. I was crushed. Later that evening the council voted again, and this time agreed to pay $535 million in bonds to build a stadium. As I approached the stadium for a game this year, I saw another huge building going up just outside the stadium. Adrian Fenty and the other members of the council who fought the stadium were obviously wrong.

My question is, does anybody know what the deal is with the building near the DOT building that has some of it's windows broken. It has some kind of transportation sign on it. If you look in the window it looks like just an empty building with a dirt floor. Very strange the rest of the area is developing like crazy but this prime spot for a restaurant or bar has this decrepit building on it. Historical building?

This?
