Le vie del centro storico sono strette e tortuose, questo schema di costruzione risale alla prima metà del 900 Dopo Cristo, quando la città fu conquistata dai Saraceni. La strada principale del centro storico di Gallipoli è via Antonietta De Pace che separa in due zone la parte antica della città. Un tempo Gallipoli era unita alla terra ferma da un istmo, l'unico passaggio per accedere alla città, questo passaggio prendeva il nome di Porta Terra e fu creato nel 1310 ad opera di Roberto D'Angiò, il figlio di Carlo Secondo. Successivamente questo passaggio fu distrutto nel 1887.
In my defense, I will argue it's very photogenic and it's essentially in my front yard.
The building is an old chicken coop.
The second freight train from the mine in Tahawus, NY since 1989 crosses the Sacandaga River at Hadley, NY. Symboled SC-5, the train consists of SNC BL-2 #52 (a former Bangor & Aroostook engine) and 10 loads of stone. The train is heading to Corinth where it will pick up 9 additional loads of stone that were previously brought down and bring a total of 19 loads to Saratoga Springs for interchange with Canadian Pacific.
The Union League of Philadelphia, founded in 1862 as a patriotic society to support the policies of Abraham Lincoln, is today a private members-only club.
When you see old buildings like this, you know you're not in western Canada anymore. Rue St-Paul Est et Rue Bonsecours, Vieux-Montréal, Montréal, Quebec. April 19, 2014.
Cathedral Notre-Dame de Paris seen from the left bank of the Seine at night. One of the few Cathedrals in the world I think that looks as good from the back as it does the front!
Eguisheim (German: Egisheim) is proud of its picturesque and concentric narrow streets lined with colorful half-timbered houses and rich floral decoration. When looking at a photo of Eguisheim taken from above, it is easy to be amazed by the shape of this small medieval city, which was built in three concentric circles around his castle. Eguisheim lies in the Haut-Rhin département of Alsace (France) a few kilometers south of Colmar. The village centre is very picturesque and receives many tourists, as the Alsace "Wine Route" passes the village. This city surrounded by vineyards plunges the visitor into the middle of the Renaissance.
The commune is largely German-speaking. Eguisheim was the birthplace of Pope Leo IX on June 21, 1002.
Eguisheim (Duits: Egisheim) is een klein schilderachtig stadje in de Franse Elzas.
De grotendeels Duitstalige gemeente, enkele kilometers ten zuiden van Colmar, heeft een oppervlak van 14,2 km² en het aantal inwoners is circa 1550. Eguisheim ligt aan de wijnroute ( "Route des Vins Alsace") midden in een van de mooiste druivengaardgebieden van de Elzas.
In het stadje met haar middeleeuwse sfeer staan veel oude en kleurrijke vakwerkhuizen, die in drie ringvormige smalle straatjes rondom een dorpsplein met burcht en kapel zijn aangelegd. Het is een van de mooiste stadjes in de Elzas.
Paus Leo IX werd hier als Bruno, graaf van Egisheim en Dagsburg, in 1002 geboren.

The distinctive former Ridpath furniture building built in the Tudor Revival style stands empty on Yonge Street. I am not sure of the status of the plans to develop a hotel and condo tower on the site that would see the facade retained, after a proposal was rejected by the city. The building was completed in 1928 and designed by architect Mackenzie Waters. It was designated as heritage in 1974.
