Former Purity Store located at 375 Third St. in San Rafael,CA.
The facade of the building has been covered over with stucco so one couldnt tell its past life as a Purity from outside but inside, well its pretty damn obvious. Purity designed their stores primarily in the shape of quonset huts in the 1930's and 1940's and then shifted to this new, large design which I call the "four sided window store". The Purity chain was very focused on natural lighting which really was ahead of its time with the future problems which would take place with high energy costs. As you can see the store uses very little florescent lighting with most of the light coming through the large windows. Each of the four windows contained a small vent in the center of the arch resulting in even additional ventilation. For this specific location you can still see the old windows in the back of the building from Highway 101.

The Folly, an old stone built tower on the moor above Sugworth Hall and overlooking the Strines moors. Used in days gone by for shooting parties and well err ... follying I guess.
A fair bit of work to do on the exterior of the building but the shows are on once again in the theatre. A city icon.
The Mater Infirmorum (Mother of the Sick) Hospital has been serving the people of Belfast since it admitted its first patients on 1 November 1883,[2] in premises on the Crumlin Road in Belfast, known as Bedeque House. It was initially founded by the Sisters of Mercy but has always treated patients without regard to class or creed. Between 1841 and 1891, the population of Belfast dramatically increased from 75,308 to 255,922. In 1895, the Bishop of Down and Connor Dr Patrick MacAlister arranged for expansion of the Mater Infirmorum Hospital with construction of a new building on Mountview Terrace.[2]
Intending to buy a building near Old Harbor and move it to the club in New Harbor, the building was instead ferried by barge across the Atlantic to Mystic, where it is part of the Mystic Seaport Museum and a replica was built for the club. If you're on the island, it's a great place to learn to sail. #blockislandlife #blockisland
Me gustan las ventanas encima de esa fachada deteriorada, sobre la que incide el sol. Nada más.
