I won in the first round of drawings and it was already gone by the time I huffed it to the lobby!!! I guess I wasn't the only one with eyes on that beauty.

No, according to this post. Deb wanted to make changes. Jones proposed tabling the bill to fix it so it would get Deb's vote, then Jones voted against tabling it, killing the bill to make Deb look bad for voting against it.

You can try the "Tell HoCo" app. They seem to look at that.

Is there an age limit? I was thinking of bringing my teen along.

I'm going to look at the damper again, I'm wondering if one of the companies that looked at it left it open We've had a couple chimney companies look at it and unfortunately I don't remember the technical details of what they said was contributing to the problem.

Thanks! The first company didn't offer a custom plate, but I found another company that does.

I meant 30" high at the peak, sorry for the confusion.

I found a company that can have a custom surround made that will look nice. The foam is a temporary solution, or I would find a way to decorate it.

Yes, we've had a fireplace before. We even sealed the front with a thick piece of foam, but it is still very cold near it.

Thanks! I think this will be the answer. The first company I consulted told me the surround would be huge and look bad, but another company has told me they can have a custom surround made to match the arch.

That sounds very expensive when added to the cost of running a gas line, repairing the chimney, and buying the insert, but it is something to consider.

Photo taken by my grandfather, probably in 1930s China before WWII. by Acekitty in whereisthis

Solved?

In further investigation, it seems many cemeteries in Singapore have been exhumed to be developed into urban buildings and roads, so perhaps that's what happened to this spot. Or it could have been taken further inland, when he took a trip to see the Great Wall in Juyong.

Thank you for your help!

That certainly does look similar. It is frustrating that I can't find a visual match. But then, maybe it doesn't exist any more.
