Oops! I thought the numbers started from the river where his aunt's factory was. Bill says no, this building is downtown. Downtown Trenton has been basically boarded up for years due to crime, gangs, and other related issues, so hopefully any falcons would be safe there. Still cool, though.

Might be Richmond. There is another igloo nest box in New Jersey, I just can't remember where.

I hope they screwed that thing down-the wind could send that sailing if it's not anchored. It's certainly going to be more durable than wood and leak free!
