So, several chapters ago, I decided to use the Washington Mutual Building as the location of an office which my protag visits.

Tonight, the Feds seized WaMu. It's the largest bank failure in US history.

I wonder if the building will be sold, and the name changed.

If you're talking about a back office building, it might be referred to as "the old WaMu building."

People in the Chicago loop still refer to the "Continental Illinois" building even though they went bust back in the 1980s. (Of course, it helps that the name is carved in stone on front.)
