Problems deserializing List of objects

Problems deserializing List of objects

I am having trouble deserializing a list of objects. I can get just one
object to serialize into an object but cannot get the list. I get no error
it just returns an empty List. This is the XML that gets returned:
<locations>
<location locationtype="building" locationtypeid="1">
<id>1</id>
<name>Building Name</name>
<description>Description of Building</description>
</location>
</locations>
This is the class I have and I am deserializing in the GetAll method:
[Serializable()]
[XmlRoot("location")]
public class Building
{
private string method;
[XmlElement("id")]
public int LocationID { get; set; }
[XmlElement("name")]
public string Name { get; set; }
[XmlElement("description")]
public string Description { get; set; }
[XmlElement("mubuildingid")]
public string MUBuildingID { get; set; }
public List<Building> GetAll()
{
var listBuildings = new List<Building>();
var building = new Building();
var request = WebRequest.Create(method) as HttpWebRequest;
var response = request.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
var streamReader = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream());
TextReader reader = streamReader;
var serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(List<Building>),
new XmlRootAttribute() { ElementName = "locations" });
listBuildings = (List<Building>)serializer.Deserialize(reader);
return listBuildings;
}
}
