    The antenna looks as large as the building. It looks neat.

    I think the antenna is at least as tall as the building, definitely. Thanks for visiting, Jim!

    That’s a mighty building. And the radio tower puts the one at BBC radio’s Broadcasting House to shame (see HERE. Lovely image. But where are all the people?!

    Well, I took the photo from a vacant lot, where no one had any reason to be. And the Westward Ho has been converted to apartments, I think for elderly folk, though I do not know whether assisted living is provided. Coming up on April 7 you will see some people in front of the building!
