Re: Burlington Postal Annex (across from station)
I was glad to hear in the KETV report that they are going to replace the windows with new energy-efficient versions with the same look. The views of the downtown skyline out of that building are going to be fantastic. Yes, the view will look amazing. Nothing able to build in front of it either with...

Also looks like they removed some of the temporary shoring jacks from the first floor of the hotel and have begun installing them on the 2nd floor.

They did get a great shot. So many times, teams have that long or longer and throw up a 1/2 court shot with 3 seconds left when they had more time to advance the ball. Nova = perfect execution to end the game.

Re: 2015 NCAA Basketball
I didn't get to watch the 2nd half, but it sounds like Nova owned it with a 25-0 run being part of it.
With that win, the Big East is guaranteed to have a better winning % than the MVC. Should finish 2nd of 3rd best for NCAA tournament winning %.
