Thank you.
People often talk about a lifespan of 60 years for buildings. That may be common in America in general, but I think it is unfortunate. In other places in the world, 60 years is a very short time. There are buildings that are 600 or 700 years old, and newer ones that are 200 years old.
Why do we not aim for a longer lifespan for our buildings?
It would be wonderful if Canada had a 200-year-old residence in New York. That would be extraordinary.
