Merrie Harrington, administrative assistant of student life, captured the Sellinger building decked out for Christmas.
Old school house that has been preserved in Fl, and intentionally gave it a creepy edit, seemed to fit.
St Peter's church at Little Barrington is not a grand building but one of great charm and antiquity nonetheless, as witnessed to some striking Norman features, such as the elaborate south doorway in the porch (well preserved though with some restoration) and the easily missed tympanum on the north side (the remains of a blocked doorway in the corresponding position). Another curious feature of the exterior is the 18th century monument embedded in the east wall of the porch, unusual in both its setting and looking at least a century earlier.
Inside there is a single aisle in addition to the nave on the north side, the two separated by a fine late Norman/transitional arcade with two low and unusually wide arches, whilst about the walls are several painted texts from the 18th century.
Took these 20th April 2009 with my Canon EOS 400D (Wish it was my 7D) They aren't the best with bad lighting and I didn't have my tripod with me but they are good enough for record shots.
‘Park House’, The Southend, Ledbury. Tuesday 28 July 2015.
A Grade I listed sixteenth-century mansion, originally called ‘New House’ until changing in 1820. It is built on the site of the Medieval bishop's palace and is considered the most important domestic building in Ledbury, belonging to Edward Skynner, a clothier, in around 1595. Edward and his wife Elizabeth are buried in the church with their baby daughter, who was reputedly killed by the last wolf in the district. In 1680 the estate passed to the Biddulph family, an influence in Ledbury into the twentieth century.
Unusually, for a grand mansion, the building is on the corner of a cross roads. During the Civil War, Prince Rupert made New House his headquarters. In 1830, Princess Victoria (later Queen Victoria) named an elm tree on the estate. In 1996, the building was converted into apartments.

An hour wander around Martin Place in Sydney while Laurel was on a TV talk show. Got interested in the strange tension in the relationship between plant and building - race for the light? All are Canon 5D2 and 17mm TSE lens
These are actually just buildings in Brooklyn near Coney Island... but Astroland itself is scheduled to be turned into condos in the near future. :(
Catedral de Santiago de Compostela; the reputed burial place of Saint James the Great, one of the apostles of Jesus Christ. The cathedral has historically been a place of pilgrimage on the Way of St. James since the Early Middle Ages, and marks the traditional end of the pilgrimage route. The building is a Romanesque structure, with later Gothic and Baroque additions. Groundbreaking 1060, completion 1211.
O edifício Altino Arantes (também conhecido como Edifício do Banespa ou Banespão) é um dos prédios mais emblemáticos da capital paulista, sendo o 3º mais alto da cidade e o 4º do Brasil, prestes a se tornar respectivamente o 4º e 5º no fim de 2010. Construído a partir de 1939, para sediar o Banco do Estado de São Paulo (Banespa) e inaugurado em 1947, foi durante mais de uma década o mais alto da cidade, até ser superado pelo Mirante do Vale, em 1960. Seu projeto inicial foi alterado para fazê-lo à semelhança do Empire State Building, em Nova Iorque. Logo após a inauguração, na década de 40, chegou a ser considerado a maior estrutura em concreto armado do mundo.
Built in 1917, this building could have been Bob Kranz's general store or Neilson's Hardware Store, both located in the village of Lake Saskatoon. The Buffalo Lakes Lumber Company likely provided the timber for the building (you can see their name on the side).
Yick Cheong Building 益昌大廈, everyone's favorite dystopian housing estate in Hong Kong since the demise of Kowloon City. It's actually quite pleasant with some little cafes and shops, if you be sure to avoid stepping on fools like me lying down to take photos.
Chelsea, Michigan.
