My daughter named the abandoned dog house at my new dwelling the ghost dog house because there is no dog. There is also not one single plumb line.
Architect: Unknown (1960s?)
Location: North Charleston, SC
Modernist architecture fans will have a hard time in Charleston. This is about the extent of it right here. This building is across the road from my office in Charleston, near the airport. I just did a quick shot of this from my car window, as I was driving by, because I liked the light. I'm sure the other side of the building would be a better angle without the drive-through teller windows there. But I didn't have time to do a proper shoot. Will try the next time I'm in town.
If anyone has any information about the architect or the building's history, would love to know more. Thanks.

Tram, Calcutta, India, 1996; A Tram, Calcutta, India, 1996...MCS1996002 K010..Magnum Photos, NYC5923.."For McCurry, Calcutta is the most visual city on the planet, spinning with chaos and clutter, crumbling under the weight of its overpopulation, utterly out of control, yet vital and alive. Vendors spill into streets, which hold a confusion of cars, trams, rickshaws, bicycles and pedestrians. So how to make this picture? McCurry looked for an office or apartment on a second floor of a street corner. 'And that is the wonder of the place. Twenty minutes later, I am on a bed in a couple's apartment, making the picture and staying on for a cup of tea."..Anthony Bannon. (2005). Steve McCurry.

Iconic Images, .final book_iconic, .iconic photographs .final print_HERMITAGE..Dirty, hot, smoggy, friendly- that's how one resident describes Calcutta, a city so humid even the buildings seem to sweat. With crowded streets pockmarked with potholes, an unreliable phone system, and a long love affair with Marxism, Calcutta is only now trying to lure foreign investors. ..National Geographic, Jeffrey C.

Dirty, hot, smoggy, friendly, it is a place so humid that even the buildings seem to sweat...This Calcutta street is a cacophony of visual noise. McCurry spent a long time searching for a way to capture the energy and vitality of this most unique of cities. His response was to find a vantage point above street level. Fortunately, he was welcomed into an apartment on the street corner by a young couple.

Just happened to be driving down Highway 1 on my way home yesterday afternoon and spotted a glimpse of this building hidden a half-block off the main road. It seems to be in great shape but I don't know anything about it.
Flatiron Building
Building in New York City, New York
The Flatiron Building, originally the Fuller Building, is located at 175 Fifth Avenue in the borough of Manhattan, New York City, and is considered to be a groundbreaking skyscraper.
Built from 1906 to 1910 and located at 207 West Hastings, Vancouver, BC.
When built, the Dominion Building was the tallest commercial building in the British Empire at thirteen stories high. Taller buildings dot Vancouver's skyline today, but this one definitely stands out with its terracotta finish and architecture, which I just learned is in the style known as "Second Empire". I would always see just the top of the building and wonder what it was built and used for, and since it reminded me of a loaf of bread/pullman loaf, in my mind it was the "bread building".
The Beaux Arts style Stuart Broadwell Building, locally known as Broadwell's Drug Store, was built in 1917 and is located on the northwest corner of 5th and Washington St., catty-corner from the Old State Capitol Building in downtown Springfield. The structure is located within the Central Springfield Historic District, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
