Last week, Ian Judge walked by the long-abandoned function hall on Broadway in Powderhouse Circle, and took these four photos, touching off a long Facebook discussion thread. (The thread is public, and I'm posting this here with Ian's permission.)

Both the "Garden Room" and "Cabot Farms" signs have been taken down, the awnings are gone, and some construction seems to be going on inside. The "Cabot Farms" sign is now lying in the back yard; I don't know what happened to the "Garden Room" sign.

According to Doug Orleans, who lives there, the city ordered the property owner to remove the signs and awnings, claiming that they were eyesores.

If anyone knows more about the property owner's plans, please comment here!
