Building photos on Flickr

Downtown Granby, Vermont was bustling with activity when I took this photo. The three buildings shown are a chapel/church, a Post Office, and the Town Clerk's office. There also is a schoolhouse just beyond the bend in the road. The town was chartered in 1761, had a population of 52 in 1970, and exploded to 84 as of the 2017 census. Granby was the last of two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid, which occurred in 1963.

I saw only one car in the half hour I was at this location. They smiled and waved as they passed. Most of the residents in these small rural towns throughout Vermont and New Hampshire are very friendly. However, that may not be the case in the bordering town of Victory, which I drove through to get to Granby. Victory has a population of 62 as of the last census, and is known for its decades long "Hatfield versus McCoy" type feuds, keeping the local county sheriff busy. Just Google "Victory Vermont feud" for details. Maybe they are friendly to outsiders like me though. I don't know, as I saw no one at all in my drive through Victory. I suspect they may be afraid to go outside. By the way, Victory was the second of the last two towns in Vermont to be hooked up to the electric grid.

This scene looked to me like it was out of the 1800's. Even the main road through town is unpaved. So I thought it was appropriate for a black and white photo.

(213/16) Ayuntamiento de Toledo by Pablo Arias López

139 20

La construcción de la casa Consistorial de Toledo (España) no se planteó de una manera aislada, sino con vistas a establecer su relación con la Catedral, a través de la plaza que vincula a ambos edificios. La reforma de esa plaza y la construcción del nuevo consistorio estarán íntimamente unidos; incluso la propia plaza adoptará el nombre del Ayuntamiento, a pesar de tener edificios tan importantes en su perímetro como la Catedral y el Palacio Arzobispal.

The construction of the town hall of Toledo (Spain) was not raised in isolation, but in order to establish their relationship with the Cathedral, through the square that links the two buildings. The reform of the square and the construction of the new consistory will be closely linked; even the square itself will adopt the name of the City, despite having such important buildings on its perimeter as the Cathedral and the Archbishop's Palace.
