Public Safety

I took this out my car window the other day. The Public Safety Building which used to be the Northwest Pipeline building has such a great look to it. I've come to imagine it's where 60's era Commissioner Gordon used the red phone to alert Batman. Now that the new Public Safety building is under construction a few blocks south, this old location may be in danger if a newer tenent isn't interested in preserving it's Mid-Century charm. I'm willing to bet that Salt Lake Modern which helped save the Ken Garff building has this in their sights. Imagine a world without beige.
