Another one bites the dust. Might seem cold, but "Another One Bites the Dust" was one of Mr. Crowell's school dance favorites when I was a kid at Harding Elementary, which also burned a couple of years ago. Clark school was really old, though, and probably would have made awful housing. And maybe I'm stupid, but the city requested $22 million to convert this school to 100 low-rent housing units. Uhh...that's $220,000 a unit. Nice apartments.
