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.

An old homestead in Carp (Ottawa), Ontario, Canada.
The farm at the end of this dead end road was established in 1851, so this may perhaps give us a clue as to the age of this homestead and farm.
This old homestead is located on Peter Robinson Road.
About Peter Robinson:
In 1823, Peter Robinson brought almost 500 settlers to the Ottawa area on two ships, the Hebe and the Stakesby. They sailed from County Cork. There are many thousands of descendants in the Ottawa area today.
These early settlers were mostly from the poorest part of Ireland - the southwest - mainly from County Cork and County Tipperary.
They were brought to Upper Canada, in part, to help reduce the numbers of poor Irish Catholic tenants on several large Irish estates - Lord Doneraile's property for example. Sending these people to Canada was expected to reduce the average level of poverty in Ireland and at the same time give a "leg-up" to selected emigrants, all of whom had good character references and were expected to become self-sufficient in Canada.
After the end of the Napoleonic Wars (1815) the British government was amenable to government assisted emigration.
Die jüdische Familie Flechtheim ließ sich 1870 in Münster nieder und betrieb hier einen Getreidehandel. 1969 erwarben die Stadtwerke diesen und den angrenzenden Rhenusspeicher. Noch bis 2007 wurden beide als Getreidespeicher benutzt.
Die Sanierung wurde ab 2013 mit einem Etat von 10 Mio. Euro vorgenommen. Das Wolfgang Borchert Theater übernahm als Mieter die neuen Räumlichkeiten im Erd- und Untergeschoss. Das Theater selbst befindet sich im Rhenusspeicher. Das Foyer ist im heute denkmalgeschützten Flechtheimspeicher untergebracht.

Siena (Italian pronunciation: [ˈsjɛːna] in English sometimes spelled Sienna) is a city in Tuscany, Italy. It is the capital of the province of Siena.
The historic centre of Siena has been declared by UNESCO a World Heritage Site. It is one of the nation's most visited tourist attractions, with over 163,000 international arrivals in 2008. Siena is famous for its cuisine, art, museums, medieval cityscape and the Palio, a horse race held twice a year.
Siena, like other Tuscan hill towns, was first settled in the time of the Etruscans (c. 900–400 BC) when it was inhabited by a tribe called the Saina. The Etruscans were an advanced people who changed the face of central Italy through their use of irrigation to reclaim previously unfarmable land, and their custom of building their settlements in well-defended hill forts. A Roman town called Saena Julia was founded at the site in the time of the Emperor Augustus. The first document mentioning it dates from AD 70. Some archaeologist assert that Siena was controlled for a period by a Gaulish tribe called the Senones.
Siena Cathedral (Italian: Duomo di Siena) is a medieval church in Siena, Italy, dedicated from its earliest days as a Roman Catholic Marian church, and now dedicated to Santa Maria Assunta (Holy Mary, Our Lady of the Assumption).
The cathedral itself was originally designed and completed between 1215 and 1263 on the site of an earlier structure. It has the form of a Latin cross with a slightly projecting transept, a dome and a bell tower. The dome rises from a hexagonal base with supporting columns. The lantern atop the dome was added by Gian Lorenzo Bernini. The exterior and interior are constructed of white and greenish-black marble in alternating stripes, with addition of red marble on the façade. Black and white are the symbolic colors of Siena..

I finally got chance to shoot inside local port of Riga which is strictly restricted area. In this image you can see that coal is treated with water to prevent dust from spreading around the port.
