Creating view to turn result vertical

Question

Greetings guru,
This is a simplified version of what I need, but has all the elements to let me expand it to my real world situation. I need to basically turn this horizontal result set vertical and add the item # and Title (See table below). Per each building_name, year, month group. I need to produce the table below. Basically produce the table for each record returned
I’m currently running Oracle 9i but we are going to upgrade to 10g in June. I know that Oracle 10g has SQL modeling (http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14223/sqlmodel.htm#i1013509), which should be able to produce the desired results (I’m currently trying to understand how to use it). My goal is to create a view that can produce this result with the data from the example query. I do not want to execute the query more than once because it is going against a data warehouse.
Extra kool points will be scored for providing a 9i and 10g view that could produce the results.
Note: The Act# and Est# are all numbers. I’m not against creating a table to hold the Item # and Title. My real world scenario has 26 Items and three more data columns.
select building_name, year, month, Act1, Act2,Act3,Act4,Act5, Est1,Est2,Est3,Est4,Est5
from table_name
where building_name =’ONE PLAZA’ and
           year = ‘2007’
           month = ‘2’
*NOTE: Sorry for the table alignment. I did not know how to create a html table in the foum.
Item #     Title     Actual     Estimate     Difference
1          Rent                        Act1                     Est1                        Estimate-Actual
2          Improvement            Act2                      Est2                        Estimate-Actual
3          Operating Cost         Act3                      Est3                        Estimate-Actual
4          Total Rent                Act1+Act2+Act3         Est1+Est2+Est3          Estimate-Actual
4a         Ground Parking       Act4                         Est4                         Estimate-Actual
4b         Surface Parking       Act5                          Est5                        Estimate-Actual
C          Total Parking           Act4+Act5                 Est4+Est5                Estimate-Actual
D          Total Bill (B+C)        Act1+Act2+Act2+          Est1+Est2+Est3+              Estimate-Actual
                                    Act4+Act5              Est4+Est5
