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

Everywhere we went through the rural areas, there were workers out building; roads, houses, you name it. it looked like long, hard work, but worth it -- the farmers are living in conditions that a lot of people elsewhere in the world would love to have even in the cities!
With roads, houses, running water, fields to work in and food to eat your life might not be luxurious but all the basics are covered.
Went to Stratford today with my friends to take pictures for a school assignment.. This is the RSC building by night.
The Escorial is a vast building complex located in San Lorenzo de El Escorial, near Madrid, in central Spain. The building is the most important architectural monument of the Spanish Renaissance. Construction of El Escorial began in 1563 and ended in 1584.
The project was conceived by King Philip II, who wanted a building to serve the multiple purposes of a burial place for his father, Holy Roman emperor Charles V; a Hieronymite monastery; and a palace.
The first architect, Juan Bautista de Toledo, designed the ground plan on a gridiron scheme, recalling the grill on which San Lorenzo, the patron of the building, was martyred.
After Toledo's death, Juan de Herrera took up work on the project. Although Herrera was influenced by the styles of Sebastiano Serlio and Giacomo Barozzi da Vignola, the final product was uniquely Spanish. The building complex, severe in its lines, has four principal stories with large towers at each corner.

Court of the Evangelists
On the south side of the church at El Escorial is the Lower Cloister (with frescoes by Tibaldi), within which is the Patio de los Evangelistas, named after the fountain-house (by Herrera) with figures of the four Evangelists which stands in the center of the courtyard.
The square with the Fountain of the Four Evangelists was, for unexplicable reasons, closed and we had to peek through some boarding to catch a glimpse of it. ('The monks live there...')
