thread_title: Citations needed on tallest building when built

message: I just removed a lot of trivial non-encyclopaedic text, some false text, and added s.  I'm an MIT grad, Class of '71, and prefer that all articles here meet Wikipedia's high standards.  Lentower (talk) 23:59, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

message: So this: "When it was built, there was a limit on the number of floors.[citation needed] Thus, it was designed to be on stilts with the first occupied floor approximately 30 feet above grade in order to "circumvent" this law.[citation needed]"
Seems to be contradicted by this:

message: Is this still held every Halloween? It was an annual feature when I attended in 80-85. -- SpareSimian (talk) 05:41, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pumpkin drop 

message: The Green Building was built to house two different departments: Meteorology  & Earth Sciences.  They moved from Building 24 (whose roof had meteorological  instruments on it in those days). and perhaps elsewhere.  Much later, the two departments were merged into the present single department in the building.  Be good to add as much of this, as citations can be found for.
