More info on the castle. Clearly we'd stop the tours.

And a lovely image, under the cut.



Selling narrative:

Secret passageways abound in this early 20th century castle near the Canadian border. It was originally built for the president of the Singer Sewing Machine Co., Frederick G. Bourne, by renowned architect Ernest Flagg. The five-story, 28-room castle, aptly named Singer Castle, has stone spiral staircases, copper gutters and a castle dungeon. Uniquely situated on one of the St. Lawrence Seaway’s Thousand Islands, the property offers two boathouses, a beach and a sizable squash court.

Ah.

It might be one of those moments, yes.

Mohinder wants to move to Italy.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

We should probably skip that and just let you go ahead and do it, then.

What's wrong with New York?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Probably best.

Apparently it's cold.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess so. What are you going to do with a castle?

So he's just leaving, then?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I was thinking turn it into the new Company headquarters.

What? No. He's just protesting castles purchased in northern New York and whining about ones in Italy.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Will that work?

Ah. Okay.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Why not? I mean, we won't be able to house too many if the family's there, but headquarters, absolutely. And, you know...a secure place for Level 5ers.

Yeah.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Does it have good wiring or will we need to get that redone?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

From what I've researched, it was fully refurbished in 2002, so it should be soundly modern and up to date with wiring and plumbing.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

That's good, at least.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Very good.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

What would we have to do to convert it into high-security cells?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

We'll have to actually see the dungeon first to figure that out.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Yeah, okay.

... I bet Monty'd love to see a castle.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

No doubt. *g* On an island, too.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Before we start locking dangerous people up there.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

...Of course.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

I'm not having my kids anywhere near a Company facility.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

We haven't even figured out if we can get it, yet, Nathan. And, really--the girls are talking about decorating and squash---more of a home than a facility. An island, all our own, where we can be ourselves, not have to hide.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Well, that's all right, then. Maybe. Just let me know.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

I will.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

Do you need me to do anything?

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Jen's contacted the real estate agent. If we get to the point of making a bid, I'd like you to go over all the contracts and such, see if we can negotiate a solid deal.

[notacargojet.livejournal.com]

I can do that.

[changehistory.livejournal.com]

Thanks.
