This is a close up of the center and upper section of the former W.I. Addis Company Building. You will notice the fluted pilasters which separate the windows. When I took this photo the building was vacant and in need of renovation. After rotting and being neglected for most of the last 24 years the former department store building will be given a new life as a mix of apartments and retail and office space. Renovation work was recently started on the old building (around the end of Nov 2016). Located on the 400 block of South Salina Street in Syracuse, NY. (S5/294)
La Iglesia de San Martín de Vega de Poja, en el concejo de Siero (Asturias-España), ya aparece referenciada en documentos de principios del siglo XII, si bien las partes románicas que se conservan en el mismo, la portada y el arco de triunfo, pertenecen al edificio construido en el siglo siguiente que posteriormente fueron integrados en el que se realizó en 1757.

Albert Fisher was an immigrant from Germany he settled in Salt Lake City [Utah] in the early 1870s. He was an experienced brewer and brought his skills to Utah. In 1884 he purchased land and opened the “A Fisher Brewing” which became the largest brewing company in Utah. The Beer quickly became known as “Fisher Beer” And in 1893 he had Richard Karl Augustus Kletting (the same architect that designed Utah’s Capital Building) design and build the Fisher Mansion.
Through the years the Fisher Mansion has changed ownership many times (and was once even owned by the Catholic Diocese) but it currently stands empty and is owned by the state of Utah.
Admiral Golovko together with her sisterships Varyag, Grozny and Admiral Fokin were first missile cruisers of Soviet Navy. In this country they were known as 'Project 58' series. Building of 20 pieces was planned at first. I.e. division of 5 units per each of Soviet fleets. But due to the enormous costs of building total number has been cut to 4 only. Initially this ships were classified as destroyers (due to their modest displacement). But before launching they were reclassified as missile cruisers thanks to their unusual firepower. She was armed by a couple of quadruple anti-ship missile launchers, also by a couple of twin AA missile, completed by two turrets each of them with twin 76-mm AA guns. A pack of four spare anti-ship missiles was stored in the superstructure behind each of launchers. The lack of helicopter hangar and helipad was considered as great shortcoming of such ships. But they were already overloaded by weapons. During long years Admiral Golovko carried the full-readiness service in Mediterranean sea. Each of launchers was obligatory loaded by a single cruise missile with a nuclear warhead. Its combat radius covered almost all Southern Europe, thus making a big contribution into the Cold War 'fear balance'. This ship was attractive due to the joint of two ship generations features. She has modern 'missile era' profile. But her missile launchers were 'the duty to conservatism' too close recalling artillery turrets of the past. In 1990's she was decommissioned and several years preserved in Sevastopol Southern harbor as museum piece. But soon after making of these shots she fall as a victim of Russian admirals-thieves. Her copper boiler tubes and color metal fittings revealed to be irresistible temptation. In 2000's she was scrapped and sold as a metal.

Now a very good nationally known museum, this is the former barracks at the Port Orford U.S. Coast Guard rescue station situated on the high ground of the Port Orford Heads in northern Curry County on Oregon's rugged southern coast. This station was added to the NRHP in 1998.

St Mary, Bramford, Ipswich
A pleasingly grand riverside church in outer Ipswich suburbia. It has Suffolk's only stone roodscreen, and the Jacobean font cover opens up.
I took the new Buildings of England: Suffolk for a test-run. A short cycle ride out from my house in Ipswich took me to the churches of Bramford, Little Blakenham, Nettlestead, Somersham, Flowton, Elmsett, Burstall and Sproughton.
Flowton and Nettlestead are two of my favourite churches in the world. All eight are churches I like to some degree. The new BOE proved a splendid companion, showing me things in all churches that I'd never noticed before.
Incidentally, because the new Suffolk Pevsner is in two volumes, and the chosen border between the two volumes is the line of the A12/A14/A140 roads, all the churches I visited were in the SUFFOLK: WEST volume, despite the fact that Bramford and Sproughton are suburbs of Ipswich, which of course is in SUFFOLK: EAST.
The new Buildings of England volumes for Suffolk are published on April 23rd. People will just have to buy both.
Constructed in 1897-98, the long-vacant Jamaica Savings Bank building "is a fine and particularly exuberant example of the classically inspired Beaux-Arts style strikingly executed in carved limestone and wrought iron, and is one of only a few buildings in the borough of Queens to embrace that architectural aesthetic. Prominently sited on Jamaica Avenue, the bank building is an urbane presence on the neighborhood’s main commercial thoroughfare. Although the four-story structure is relatively small in scale, the imposing design of the facade conveys a monumentality which is appropriately suited to the distinguished image and reputation of the banking institution, while lending the building the formal elegance of a private club or townhouse."
UPDATE (Oct. 2016): The old bank and its two neighbors to the right are being turned into a three-building retail complex. The 10-story tower that stood immediately to the right (visible above) has been knocked down and is being replaced by a structure similar in height to the bank building. Here's a rendering of the proposed development.
