Deserves to be preserved

It’s a real shame that Frank Gehry’s pavilion next to the Serpentine Gallery in Hyde Park has just been demolished. It was England’s first built project by this great Canadian-born architect and was a terrific addition to the park. During its three-month lifespan the huge wooden and glass structure was a place for live music and performances, as well as a place to wander through and admire. Perhaps the whole building could be rebuilt and sited elsewhere. Any suggestions?
