Ehemaliges Palais Bartolotti-Partenfeld
Objekt ID: 30727 Dorotheergasse 2–4
Katastralgemeinde: Innere Stadt. Dieses bemerkenswerte barocke Stadtpalais wurde um 1720, wahrscheinlich von Johann Lucas von Hildebrandt erbaut. Die Fassade ist mehrfach geknickt und auf die Dorotheergasse ausgerichtet, während am Graben nur vier Achsen zu sehen sind. Oberhalb eines genuteten Sockels mit zwei von Hermenpilastern eingerahmten Korbbogenportalen befinden sich die durch ein Kordongesims geteilten Obergeschoße. Die Fensterdachungen sind rhythmisiert angeordnet und aufwändig gestaltet. Im ersten grabenseitigen Obergeschoß befindet sich in einer Rundnische die Steinskulptur einer Madonna mit Kind.

Former PaynSave Drug Store located at 463 Stony Point Rd. in Santa Rosa,CA. The building is now occupied by a Longs Drug Store. Im wondering if this might've spent a year or so under the Bills Drug Store name as they took over many PaynSave locations and Longs bought Bills in the late 1980's. The placement of the automatic doors has remained the same as well as the strange (very) narrow shot walkway between the doors leading to the interior of the store.

This is one of the great renovation's of an Art Deco building in Chicago. It's unfortunate, however, that is was converted into the Hard Rock Hotel. I have to post the color version of this photo because of the gorgeous green stone.
**St. Martin of Tours Catholic Church** - National Register of Historic Places Ref # 72001454, date listed 1972-04-10
133 S. Main St.
St. Martinville, LA (St. Martin Parish
This church was founded in 1765 by a group of Acadian exiles who arrived that year, the first of many of these unfortunate refugees, driven from Canada by the English, who came to Louisiana over a period of some twenty years. It was these exiles who established the Acadian culture and traditions that have left an indelible imprint upon the State of Louisiana. The French military engineer, Lieutenant Louis Andry, on order of Governor Charles Philippe Aubry, accompanied the first group of exiles to the Attakapas country and probably laid out the town and designed the first church.
A sketch of the early church drawn by Samuel M. Lee in the 1820s is in the collection of the Henry Francis Dupont Winterthur Museum. By an act of the State Legislature approved March 7, 1814, the church was incorporated and another act approved March 16, 1830 authorized the congregation to conduct a lottery to raise funds to build a new church. The present church was apparently erected some years after that, but the ceremony of consecration was not held until June 2, 1844. A contract for the construction of the present rectory, "Presbytere", was awarded on July 11, 1856 to Robert R. Benson, builder. Extensive alterations were made to this building mostly in the twentieth century, but the basic fabric of the building is intact and subject to restoration. The parish hall appears to be an ante-bellum building and may be the school which a contract was awarded on January 15, 1861 to Alcee Judice and Prosper Moity according to plans by R.R. Benson. (1)

Business trip to NYC care of Millennium. Grace hitched along for the ride. We tried to explore the city to get the tourist-traps and the roads less travelled.
