i want to ask about the principal center, about the brickwork. i have heard the story -- story of of the presentation of the brickwork at roosevelt through one of our previous, even before my time, field act programs and i am really fascinated by seeing this seal work but i'm wondering about what we -- we don't have many brick schools so was work ever done to actually hold the brick facade onto it? and it's not necessary? >> if you go out to the 1350 site what you'll see on the, is it the eighth street side? the side that has the playground. sixth. the side that has the playground. in the 1950's, somebody came in and poured concrete all over the bricks on the outside. that side got completely stabilized. but the other three sides did not. so we've taken down the bricks at the ends and we're going to pour big, massive concrete walls and then put the bricks, some of the bricks back and the center portion will look essentially the same. the goal for these really fine old buildings is when we're done, to have a brand new modern school on the inside a

for the public if you -- you should go look at roosevelt and the brickwork is extraordinary there which is why i was told they decided to make a big investment in that. it's a beautiful art deco kind of brick work. if you look, you'll see small metal, looks like rectangles, very expensive, even in those days, steel structure built on the inside with these rods coming out and things that hold the bricks on the facade and in the 1989 earthquake, that brick building, not one brick fell off, yet right along the area, there are houses like many in san francisco, stucco, one story above garage with brick facades around the garage and when you walked down the street you saw houses where the bricks all fell off. you know there was enough shaking that the bricks would have come off in the case of roosevelt, which is a brick build, would have probably fallen down. so i appreciated that and love that building. it's an extraordinary building. i want to say that we're so lucky to have these buildings. they are, you know, some of it is really things that you just never think about. but almost every c
