Appreciation of Honda
I live a block from the McKinley Mansion. I have seen several distinctive homes in the neighborhood razed to make way for the witless warrens and concrete cartons that developers relentlessly commission. Whenever I caught a glimpse of the McKinley Mansion while strolling past its gates, I wondered how much time was left before the architectural cancer toppled it, too.
Now, thanks to Honda, the McKinley may enjoy a remission, if not a cure. At least he has made a valiant, self-sacrificing effort.
Whatever the fate of the McKinley Mansion, Honda deserves our deepest reverence for daring to swim against the prevailing currents toward the unpolluted source.
