That's what I thought. It would have to be in the area where the windows are, as laytonia suggests. I vaguely recall something about the offices being on the first floor and living quarters on the second.

Maybe the renovations knocked thru 2 those 2nd floor rooms & the office was moved 2 the first floor. I'm pretty sure I read those renovations made his living quarters larger. I'm trying 2 think when the last time was that we saw the office, 'Love 4 one another' special?

I dearly hope we get to visit one day.

I'm thinking it was storage. Notice the door. Isn't it boarded up? That's a pretty old tour bus (P a hoarder? LOL). From above, it looks like a music note...which he was rumored to want a building to look like. Check the looped driveway.

You thought wrong. Use the search box. There have been endless discussions on that building, and what it was meant for, etc. In fact, since he's died, there has been an almost endless discussion about it. Use the search box.

Also, it's not all boarded up. That's a side door, and your photo is older than the drone footage. It's not even visible in the photo you provided, and having a door there wouldn't fit with the design anyway. (Look at the window placement.) The front of the building can be seen in the left of that pic; it faces the main building. That entryway's visible in the drone footage, and in that photo.

A music note isn't curved, either. A basic note is round, and the staff is straight. The flag is wavy, but that building resembles nothing like that. The driveway isn't looped. It's barely a v-shape, and more has just an indention in it. A loop would indicate a circle of some sort. It's far from that.

I've read a number of threads on The Egg recently and over the years, and I still have seen no definitive answer as to its purpose.

Aww this brought a tear to my eyes...Its probably already been done though.

Aww sorry yeah no doubt. I've been thinking about it since day one, u kno, his really private bits & bobs...No kids, wife or parents 2 go thru his things. I had 2 do it & I protected my dear one's privacy. Really hope Tyka did the same or even P (not being a silly man) had a clear out

It would be bittersweet that I wasn't able to visit while he was there but as hard as it would be I want to feel the energy of the place he loved and created his magic in.

His family probably cleared out his personal effects long ago. It's quite a chore but at least there are plenty of them to help. I didn't have a lot of help when I had to go through my mom's stuff.

It breaks my heart to know that he's no longer there. It just looks so sad and quiet.

Yeah I would really like 2 see & feel it too. Just thinking of walking thru it makes me feel teary, warey I'd be a wailing mess in there I didn't have help either, did 90% myself...lost the plot in there...in some ways though the more hands involved in his stuff the more anxious I get.

I know I won't make it through there without crying the whole time.

I had to go through my grandmothers things and it was one of the hardest things I've ever done so I can only hope that his siblings took his most private/intimate stuff home.

Very sad...but I think we all better prepare ourselves for the day when PP his home is sold...it's bound to happen. Nobody could run it like Prince anyway.

So right, but that will break my heart if the day ever comes, because PP is Prince.
