Cornton apartment blocks sold to an American Internet billionaire.
You may have heard of the wealthy American who bought London Bridge and restored it in the middle of the American desert. Well another American, dot.com billionare Abraham Johnstone, has decided to buy the Etive Place, Adamson Place and Johnstone Avenue council flats.
Although the council originally intended to raise these Relics of political incompetence to the ground, they will now be painstakingly disassembled, each brick, roof beam or tile will be numbered, catalogued and shipped by a specially modified fleet of Boeing 747’s to the Desert in Salt Lake, Utah.
Abraham Johnstone was a Student at Stirling University in the early 80’s where he studied computing science.
“I arrived back in the States just in time to catch the huge wave of investment in Dot.Com companies and I was lucky enough to sell my prayer website – www.onbendedknee.com to a New York Investment group for a fabulous fortune.”
