They're constructing yet another public storage building on Northern Blvd. As for the other two, I have never seen anyone, ever, go inside either one. And I walk past this area twice per day.

I'm blessed in that I can walk to/fro my place of employment in twenty-four minutes

Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux French

1865–67

The subject of this intensely Romantic work is derived from canto XXXIII of Dante's Inferno, which describes how the Pisan traitor Count Ugolino della Gherardesca, his sons, and his grandsons were imprisoned in 1288 and died of starvation. Carpeaux's visionary statue, executed in 1865–67, reflects the artist's passionate reverence for Michelangelo, specifically for The Last Judgment (1536–41) in the Sistine Chapel of the Vatican, Rome, as well as his own painstaking concern with anatomical realism.

Today I was the epitome of laziness and instead of walking 24-minutes to my office, I opted to take the train roundtrip. Crazy! Sometimes it's good to see what's going on above ground

Each morning along my walk to my office I happen upon a multitude of freshly discarded banana peels on the Honeywell Street bridge. Lotta people eating bananas for breakfast. Lots of litter bugs.

And these peels don't breakdown over the course of a few days. Try many months. Not just a few. The peels blacken and solidify and look petrified
