Bids for TImes Building

So in the midst of a chilled real estate market, Mr. Zell is putting the Los Angeles Times building on the block.

Boo. Hiss. If anyone's interested.

The real reason for this post is to link to the photo essay that accompanies the Los Angeles Times story. Most of the pictures are of the Tribune building & Wrigley Field, yet it's on the Los Angeles Times site. Is that not adding insult to injury? Doesn't it imply that the Zell organization was too cheap to construct two photo essays, one for Chicago and one for LA, and just piggy-backed LA onto an essay assembled for another market?

Sad, sad. Boo, hiss. But the first picture is stunning.
