Maybe a "thinker", not a "doer". The 5+ million dollars UPMC wants to put up simply for demolishing the hospital could be used to dismantle the place, bank all the great building materials on vacant lot, and completely rebuild Braddock so that it produces all its own food, power, and numerous new goods manufacturers. It's hard to convey what a money pit Braddock continues to be. They apparently don't want to change. I know of no other square mile on earth that can vaporize $20 million so thoughtlessly.
