History

The original annex was designated as a historic structure by local city council in 2008 in order to prevent its demolition. Following 3 years of debate it was eventually decided that the building will be torn down as the buildings condition had deteriorated to the point that it was a safety concern. In its place the local council ordered a 3-D survey of the building, photography of the structure, and a memorial to be built in its place. The entryway of the building was preserved while the rest of the annex was demolished.
