Late afternoon shadows cross the heritage Hermant building (1929). This view is soon to become obscured as construction of the neighbouring HNR Dundas Square Tower progresses.
Normally at this point I would be giving out information about the building, but on this occasion I know absolutely nothing about it. Except it appears to have been built in 1920 . It was on a corner near our hotel in downtown Portland Maine so we walked past it frequently . On one level its a fairly ordinary building but for some reason or another it kept catching my eye
THANKS FOR YOUR VISIT TO MY STREAM.
I WOULD BE VERY GRATEFUL IF YOU COULD NOT FAVE A PHOTO WITHOUT ALSO LEAVING A COMMENT .
Facade view of the historic Paul Bishop building at 363-5 Adelaide Street East. The building was constructed circa 1842 for Paul Bishop, a blacksmith and landlord whose shop was across the street. These two attached brick houses are significant examples of Georgian-style residences that used to be common in Toronto, one of which is now occupied by NewWall House, a designer wallpaper showroom. It received heritage designation from the Ontario Heritage Act in 1998.

Me apetecía editar las fotos del viaje a Edimburgo, puesto que en su momento las subí sin edición alguna. Fue un viaje increíble y las fotos creo que podrían reflejarlo aún más.
Alceu Valença - Pelas Ruas Que Andei.
Na Madalena revi teu nome
Na Boa Vista quis te encontrar
Rua do Sol, da Boa Hora
Rua da Aurora, vou caminhar
Rua das Ninfas, Matriz, Saudade
Da Soledade de quem passou
Rua Benfica, boa viagem
Na Piedade tanta dor
Pelas ruas que andei, procurei
Procurei, procurei te encontrar
Construction on the Capitol began in February 1882. Originally, the exterior was to be limestone, but the stone that was quarried streaked when exposed to air. Granite, a harder, more expensive stone, was proposed. The debate delayed construction for almost two years. Finally the decision was made to use "Sunset Red" granite donated by its owners in what is now Marble Falls, Texas. The state gave the stone to the contractor along with 1,000 convicts to quarry it. When, in 1885, the granite cutter's union objected to the use of convict labor and boycotted, the contractor responded by importing experienced stonecutters from Scotland.
