Fun fact. In 1960, which is probably a good guess for the setting of this strip, $250,000 would be worth $1,996,700.98. That's like a lesser Kardashian sister budget.

Think how many matching pairs of turtlenecks $250,000 could buy!
Also, I realize that the coloring's not added by the strip's actual creators (as Josh over at Comics Curmudgeon likes to point out, often it's slapped on by color-blind flunkies at the syndicate) but... if Manhattan continues to consist of nothing but yellow buildings, I suggest the strip's name be officially changed to "UrineTown".
("UrineTown" was a thing on Broadway, right? I'm not hip to the kids of today and their edgy stage productions.)
That's the one constant in "3-G" currently: All the buildings are yellow, all the time. The turtleneck colors keep changing from day to day (and, in Sunday's strip, even from panel to panel) but Emperor Marvin has declared a warm yellow wash over the entire skyline.
Is that the price to rent the Stonewell or... to buy it? No, I guess to rent it. I have no idea how much weddings cost, clearly...
Thank goodness Gabby's daughter is Margo, the greatest publicist in the world! Not sure how she got this information (was she tracking the Stonewell before Gabby requested it?) but this is one grade-A daughter. Nothing psychotic about this one!
