Bookstores Repurposed from Unused Structures

You're looking at the Librería El Ateneo Grand Splendid, a 1920s theater in Argentina that has been converted into the fanciest bookstore in exsistence. The theater boxes now serve as quiet reading rooms, and as one of the busiest bookshops in the country, the selection is incredible. For more awesome bookstore built in spaces that used to serve very different purposes, check out the collection on Flavorwire. Link | Images

There's nothing new about webrage; it's been here for a long time!! I received lots of online threats of violence AND online death threats over my civil rights work in 2000-2001. It seems so much easier, I think, to behave this way in what SEEMS to be an anonymous environment. It was inevitable that at some point some lunatic would carry this over into real life.
