That's pretty cool. It sure would take a delicate touch.

MASSMoCa..... Did you notice the sign on the roof of the building.

If any of you ever travel to the New England Area, you have to hit the Museum of Contemporary Art in Massachusetts. Old textile mills were revitalized to create exhibition space that is massive enough to show contemporary art pieces. The shows rotate, so call ahead for their schedule.

And if you do go, stay at the Porches, which are old Row houses for the textile workers that were converted into a wonderful hotels.

So if you like the knitting by the machines, you will love stepping inside the building!
