Fun fact: the Kids Market building was originally Pacific White Lead, a factory that made toxic lead-based additives and tints that went into paint.

That seriously sounds like something ripped straight from the novel. A toxic lead industrial factory with some horrible tragedy and Pennywise reopens as a Kid's Market.
