Another shot of the road block we encountered during a drive around Pilanesberg Game Park. They were making their way to a waterhole to drink and after a few minutes, they wandered off into the bushes. You can see my previous video here:

There has been a drug store on this corner since 1885. In the '20s it became part of the Block chain, and went independent in the '40s, and still survives today among a sea of chains... Second Avenue, East Village, NYC
Something I've noticed is how often I'll see some incredible shots while driving by and not stop and turn around for them, either out of lack of ambition or being unable to find a spot to turn around at. However, something about this scene compelled me to go out of my way to return. Displaying all reds to signify a train in block, the old school searchlight signals of the Canadian Pacific Cascade subdivision just East of Mission stand crooked, silhouetted in the evening glow as a storm slowly rolls over head.
On the left, Space House; on the right, The Block. Seen from Kemble Street, Holborn. Designed by architects Richard Seifert & Partners and completed in 1968.

The only time I saw the Inland Steel steamer Philip D. Block was in the twilight of her career here at Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan up bound for another load of iron ore June 27, 1980.
Installed in the courtyard of MoMA-PS1. "Le Grand Soir" (The Big Night) by artist Yto Barrada
From the museum's website:
Yto Barrada (French-Moroccan, b. 1971) transforms the courtyard with a colorful arrangement of towering sculptures built from stacked concrete blocks, which visitors can sit on and explore. Barrada often mines the hidden histories embedded within architectural and geometric forms, revealing the intersections of material, political, and personal narratives. For Le Grand Soir, Barrada looks to the tradition of constructing human pyramids in Morocco, where their distinctive applications have ranged from martial arts and acrobatics to spiritual practices. Each of Barrada’s structures takes inspiration from an acrobatic formation used by Moroccan acrobats: tqal (weight), bourj tarbaite (tower of four), and bourj benayma ou chebaken (tower lift with net). They also draw on subjects as wide-ranging as Moroccan Brutalism and Barrada’s family lore, weaving together distinct historical moments of shapeshifting, surmounting barricades, and retooling architectures.
