Original Story in the ARCHIVES

**DONT FORGET TO VISIT THE ARCHIVES SECTION AND READ HOW THIS ALL GOT STARTED SO YOU CAN UNDERSTAND WHERE IM COMING FROM.

The Glass House IS GONE

... Well I guess it was just a rumor after all that the Glass House was going to be saved as it was finally Bulldozed into a pile of history. I'd like to thank MAYOR BOSWELL of Harlingen Texas for NOT giving a shit about this historic building and doing nothing to save it.


Im sure his good friend Mike Murphy the previous owner of MacPherson's Pharmacy is thankful to him and to the City Commissioners for NOT INTERFERING with the negotiations with CVS which bought the property that THE GLASS HOUSE was on, making way for yet another BIG BOX PHARMACY that Harlingen has too many of already.

**For the record my issue with all this was not CVS buying the lot and building there but that THE GLASS HOUSE could have been saved and allowed to stay where it was just like the past 90+ years, but now its gone. Now what stands in its place are grass, shrubs, and a light post

The City of Harlingen recently celebrated its Centennial Birthday and MAYOR BOSWELL had the balls to talk about the rich History the City has to offer yet he did nothing to save this Historic Building that actually qualified to be registered as a Historic site.

MAYOR BOSWELL has talked a lot about the progress the City has made over the past 100 years. But lets get one thing straight, progress is NOT about removing its History.

Yeah this little building didn't look like much but it was part of the Historical beginnings of Harlingen Texas

... Goodbye GLASS HOUSE
