This line seems awkward "to make way for a larger, less pagan-inspired, building".  I think it needs to be attributed to whoever's decision it was instead of attributing it to common belief that buildings shouldn't be "pagan-inspired".

Corruption in Phenix City apparently dates back well before the Second World War.  During the 1930s, General Patton was in command of a much-expanded Fort Benning, training via the Louisiana Maneuvers for a probable American entry into World War II.  Supposedly, so many of his men wound up in the jails of Phenix City-- just across the river-- on dubious charges that he showed up in a tank and threatened to blow the jail unless his men were released... which they were.  This story is said by some of the residents to have been at least part of the inspiration for the movie Tank.</BR>
