Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
Yeah looks pretty serious.... I doubt it will burn the whole thing to the ground though. But at the very least it will be a big restoration project.

Roof and Spire have fallen. Pretty sure it's all gone.

POWERFUL MIDCUT CONTROL
Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
The spire is over the pulpit, so that will probably burn up. I think the marble entrance and narthex area will survive.

Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
I was undergoing restoration... surrounded by scaffolding.
Once news source thinks it was an accident caused by one of the workers.
Everything but the stone walls will be gone. Wonder if they'll use the same contractor to rebuild?

Saw this.
SO happy I got to see it this past November.
Really sad for Paris, that place is a fucking gem and I'm not even remotely religious.

Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
It's a loss to the architectural world and those of it's faith.. it's a very sad day. The windows and the amazing artifacts are simply irreplaceable .

Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
Yeah, I'll bet there was a footrace to get as much out as they could. Probably priceless antiquities sitting on the sidewalk at moments.

Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
Seeing reports that all of the art and antiquities were saved. So as bad as it was, it could have been way worse.
Re: Goodbye Notre Dame....
I figure whoever owns the place decided to go partners with Paulie. Paulie could do anything, especially run up bills on the joint's credit. And why not? Nobody's gonna pay for it anyway. And as soon as the deliveries are made in the front door, you move the stuff out the back and sell it at a discount. You take a two hundred dollar case of booze and you sell it for a hundred. It doesn't matter. It's all profit. And then finally, when there's nothing left, when you can't borrow another buck from the bank or buy another case of booze, you bust the joint out. You light a match.
