Script:
Hi, I'm Heather Dudley Nollette and I'm the great great great grand-daughter of Lucinda and Loren Hastings, who built this beautiful building in Port Townsend, WA in 1889.
The Hastings Building is still owned by the original family and we're seeking to complete a full historic rehabilitation on the building in the near future.
This building is one of only a few remaining structures designed by the architect, Elmer H. Fisher. In retrospect, Fisher is well-known for designing grand architectural features -- like this full-length glass atrium -- features that were perhaps too advanced for the engineering technology of the day.
The atrium here in the Hastings Building cracked under snow-pack sometime around the 1930's, and we're hoping to restore it, in addition to many of the other features like the conical cupola on the top of the building, when we complete the rehabilitation.
My brother and my cousins and I grew up visiting Port Townsend and running around playing hide and seek in this building. But most of the people in Jefferson County, including many who've lived in our community their whole lives, have never been inside the upper floors of this building.
My grandmother, Jean Dudley along with Mary Johnson, did use the upper floors of the Hastings Building to begin the Port Townsend Summer School of the Arts in the 1960's. And there are still people today who do remember taking classes from Jean and Mary in the building. They are so excited about the possibility of rehabilitating this building and bringing it back to the community
The Hastings Building is a pivotal historic structure in Port Townsend's downtown historic district. The Port Townsend Main Street Program has facilitated so much work over the last 26 years to ensure the historic preservation and economic vitality of our commercial historic districts ... while maintaining our small town quality of life. Winning this National Trust Challenge would help our community to develop historic preservation and economic development resources like an Online Interactive Building and Business Inventory, which would help us to preserve and promote the buildings and businesses in our commercial historic districts.
Historic places like the Hastings Building do matter to people -- they represent a connection to our past and an opportunity to come together today to steward our community resources into the future.
Vote for the Hastings Building because THIS PLACE MATTERS!

NYSTV - The Secret Nation of Baal and Magic on the Midnight Ride - Multi - Language
This is the Midnight Ride with David Carrico on NYSTV with Jon Pounders talking about the true occult origins of the US.
See whoever controls the narrative has spin control over the status quo. They decide what's moral or immoral. What's sane and insane. What's possible and not possible. And they especially decide the heros and the villians.
You won't find this information on TV or in your history books. Very informative as always. Check out NYSTV, relevant talk. Not distractions like the rest of the media.
I'm still trying to get these out as fast as possible, and there are a few errors on the subtitles towards the end in some languages. Sorry about that and I'll try to fix them as soon as I can.
