Looks like Bell might have *some* hope. Going past it today there was a tarp
over the roof, and a temporary exit toward the side of the building. If it
were to be pulled down i would guess there would be no tarp protecting the
roof.
The other reason being, it was staffed most days until 3pm, i remember going
and buying a ticket from there after school if i was to go into the city.
Last time i was there it was staffed as well, back in August. Things may
have changed since then....
