March 9, 2005: Mr. Martin Gabriel, a Polsterer family member who currently owns 17.5 percent of the property and who has been managing the space on behalf of his family for the past 10 months, was first interviewed by journalists concerning the swastikas in the basement on November 17, 2004, after the issue had been raised at a public press conference. I saw the swastikas again, in the company of other people, including a representative of the Austrian Green Party and a cultural historian on March 8, 2005, during a Green Party event that was open to the general public. All the swastikas that had been reported in November 2004 were still fully intact and unaltered. As of March 8, the images had been on the walls for approx. nine months.
