Excerpt from article:
In
an interview last week in his office, Paul frequently got so wound up
describing his love for Music Hall’s well-preserved 1928 bones and his
plans for new artistic products, an interactive Web site and marketing
ideas emphasizing a cutting-edge vibe, that he leapt out of his seat
and began pacing. “If you make it cool, make it hip, people will come,”
he said.
