The former Roanoke Times building is now the administration offices for Roanoke City Public Schools.
It feels so weird to me — maybe because the building was one of the first landmarks I remember seeing when I first came to Roanoke.

A terrific hometown paper.
The Roanoke Times publishes my latest letter to the editor.
I am so happy today to see The Roanoke Times publish my latest letter to the editor:
Letter: Beware those who would criticize knowledge
As always, I am grateful to the editorial staff of this superb regional newspaper. The Roanoke Times is the primary newspaper for Southwest Virginia, and its Sunday readership throughout 19 counties is estimated at 230,000 people.
I’m also pleasantly surprised that this particular letter seems to have struck a chord with people the way that it did. After it was carried by a number of newspapers in Virginia and by Newsday in New York, it was shared with a combined 733,000 readers. That would make it the most broadly circulated single item of all of my writing.
