You caused me to try to imagine the architect &engineer that would say
something to the effect of "no problem" when asked to design a new
building reusing the columns.

Now my headache has returned.  Go taunt someone else with your demented
mind games!


John,

We didn't say "no problem."  We did say that the columns, and some of the horizontal members, and some of the precast facade could be reused in place.  We didn't say it would be easy.

THEY said nothing could be saved.
