Google Lemonade: Archiving the Legacy's Photo Caption Formatting

I don't have time to write about the many problems the new version has concerning the format of a photo's caption. But it occurred to me that I have to take time for the Sept 1 Doomsday to at least record what the legacy version did because that is my expectations for the new version. So this post is being written with the legacy version.

This is the caption after I entered the information.

Ft. Wayne Indiana
Craig Leonard This was the Pennsylvania depot, completed in March, 1914. Designed by Price & McClanahan of Philadelphia; it's their largest extant free standing building(they also did the 1916 expansion of Union Station Indianapolis. In 1988, I did my M. Arch thesis on an adaptive reuse of Baker Street Station.

I then copied the above and removed the formatting from the caption.

And then I have to remove the added blank lines.

The resulting HTML is nice and clean:
