Mike 214 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 Not sure if anyone's seen these yet, but it's good to see that they are rebuilding the Courthouse Square, as well as other areas damaged by the fire.

Orgcon 11 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 I didn't know it was that bad either, it looks like it took out the archway too, as it being rebuilt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike 214 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 Archway is safe, it looks to still be in it's redressed state from when it was used for filming Ghost Whisperer The Couthouse as of Jan 1, 2006. Photo Source: ?. Redressed for the TV show Ghost Whisperer. The good news is it looks as if the forward facade is built around the pillars, and did not involve their removal. Edit- HJS, the Clocktower isn't a whole building, it's just a surround.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Orgcon 11 Report post Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) When I said 'archway' I meant the building to the bottom right of the second BTTFTOUR pic you posted Mike! Not the clocktower collumns, they were just covered by a fascade and the roof slant was removed.

archer9234 20 Report post Posted March 16, 2009 The main reason is it's their outside shooting stage. Plus, it's a landmark and tourist attraction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
