Didn't know it was called "Context"--seemed just like a random jumble.

It is currently being used as warehouse for a home furnishings company, but is available for lease.

Many people I used to know worked and/or rehearsed there. I was rehearsing there in different projects by 1992. Henry Rollins recorded one of his albums there.
