Kuznetsky Most is one of the most beautiful pedestrian streets in the historical center of Moscow.
The street got its modern - and at the same time historical - name thanks to the Kuznetsky Bridge across the Neglinnaya River. Today, Kuznetsky Most Street attracts citizens with its high-quality landscaping, an abundance of architectural monuments and an unusual relief: due to the significant difference in heights between Petrovka and Rozhdestvenka, the city landscape looks especially picturesque.
Kuznetskaya Sloboda on the high bank of the Neglinnaya River - Neglinnaya Upper - appeared in the 12th century, but its heyday came only at the end of the 15th, when the Cannon Yard was built in the vicinity, and the Moscow prince Ivan III ordered to settle in it blacksmiths and grooms who served new production. At the turn of the 15th-16th centuries, Novgorod and Pskov were annexed to the Moscow principality, and craftsmen of various professions from these cities were moved to the Neglinny Upper.
In 1737, the street burned out during the Trinity fire, but rather quickly new buildings were built on it, in which foreign shops began to be located. Gradually, the street turned into the abode of foreign trade: the French showed particular zeal, opening fashion and haberdashery shops here, thanks to which Kuznetsky Most became the main shopping street in Moscow. During World War II and the fire of 1812, it practically did not suffer from the fire, since the French guard took over the protection of the business of compatriots. After the war, trade flourished again, and many fashionable shops were opened on it (almost all of them were foreign, most of them were French). The abundance of foreign shops made Kuznetsky Most the most fashionable and aristocratic street in Moscow, which it remained until the 1917 Revolution.
During the Soviet era, the street lost part of the historical buildings, many buildings were rebuilt, and the street gradually took on a modern look.
After the reconstruction carried out in 2012, the Kuznetsky Most section from Bolshaya Dmitrovka to Rozhdestvenka became pedestrian.
Today Kuznetsky Most Street is a well-maintained pedestrian zone, where city holidays and festivals are often held.
Despite the losses of the Soviet years, a large number of architectural monuments have been preserved on it: tenement houses, partially preserved city estates and passages. Among them are famous Moscow sights: the building of the Moscow International Trade Bank, Khomyakov's trading house and others.

A view looking east on E. Main from N. Walnut St. in downtown Champaign. The five buildings in this view on the north side of E. Main all contribute to the Champaign Downtown Commercial District listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2020. All were built between 1860 and 1907, and are Italianate and early 20th century commercial designs.
The most prominent building on this block is the four-story building with a center atrium that was constructed for the Jos. Kuhn & Company in 1907. Jos. Kuhn & Co. is a longtime outpost for men's attire that gradually grew until four of the five buildings in this block were being utilized by the company. Although the company's footprint today is smaller, it is still in business today at the same location.
Located in Champaign County in east central Illinois, the twin cities of Champaign and Urbana are the home of the University of Illinois. The population of the City of Champaign at the 2020 census was 88,302, while Champaign County had a population of 205,865.

Hi All,
I managed to creep closer to Mr. Pileated than my last post of him. I clicked away as he pecked fast and furiously, (more like head banging)! :0(

Back to business. Returning sometimes feels like jumping on a moving train. New Orleans, btw, was awesome. I think Allison and I found our Vegas.
Terrific Tuesday to you.
In some of the first sunrays of the day CP 40B makes its way out of Minnesota City on the River Sub. This was a great chase that began up by Kellogg, MN and ended at Nahant Yard in Davenport, Iowa for about a total of 300 miles.
"& I know what you think,
I know you’re scared I’ll find someone else
& I know what you think,
That I’ll be unfaithful
& it’ll be unfair,
& you will be torn in two
Well I’ve got some news for you-
I don’t break hearts-
I don’t do funny business"

Street photography from Glasgow, Scotland, captured in March 2025.
Hands clenched... holding a pen like a dagger... I am intrigued.
So my PC worked perfectly as would be expected yesterday and I was beginning to doubt myself. So far this morning it has again been doing weird unexpected things, software hanging unresponsive, random errors. It's brand new. The software is newly installed. It should not be doing this. I swear this machine is possessed!
I was going to attempt editing some of my 500+ waiting photos but now my trust in this computer is smashed again.
Anyway... I truly hope that you all have a wonderful weekend ahead my Flickr friends. Stay safe out there and keep the shutters clicking.
Pier One, Walsh Bay - Sydney harbour.
Looking west across the harbour to the Blues Point Tower.
There's no lifeguard on duty, lol. So obviously you cannot dive into the harbour. BUT, anyway, why would you want to? Because along this pier there is the super amazing Pier Bar. Check it out:

So I'm back from another mysterious disappearance! I guess I just can't stay away.

This location has changed in the last few years from farming to selling. Just shows the old style to the new in the prairies Saskatchewan, Canada.
A BNSF AC44 leads Z-WSPNBY West through Mazon, IL. You don’t always see the BNSF AC44’s hauling stacks. They’re almost always in coal service.
Back to business. Business District in NOLA as seen from the Omni Hotel roof top. Terrific Monday to you.
That's a lot of legal business to sponsor a full-time supermaxi yacht like this 100 footer. Racing yachts like this cost anywhere up to $20 million to build and equip. The estimated annual running costs, including salaries for the professional crew, can be anywhere between $3-5 milllion.
