I think it's very cool of him to do this with his own money,
but I wonder why Gordy hasn't/isn't?

McCartney needs a tax write off and Gordy doesn't.

Being restored in the same factory it was built in, in 1877. Now that's pretty cool.
I worked on Berry Gordy's house years ago, he wasn't hurting at the time.
