Some views down the main street of Walpack Center, NJ. The town was slowly vacated in the 50's through *0's for the Tocks Island Dam Project which later became the Delaware Water Gap National Forest.

An unshakeable calm dwells in me

steady as earth, present as breath.

Life has carved me with care and fire,

and I have learned to thrive.

I will keep flourishing,

no matter the season,

no matter the storm.

  

At Dragonfly Lake, the world hushes. The spirit remembers how to breathe.

Looking Northwest across from the Convention Center Station a view of downtown San Diego.

Internet issues today. Catch up when I can. Thanks for visiting.

An einem der wärmeren Abende entdeckten wir dieses Gebäude bei einem Spaziergang und hielten es zunächst für eine moderne Kirche. Da sich aber an der anderen, zum Meer gewandten Seite eine Art Bühne befand, verwarfen wir unsere Idee wieder. Bei Tageslicht war dann auch die Inschrift im riesigen, die Türen überspannenden Eingangsbogen sichtbar.

Wahrscheinlich ist das Haus inzwischen zu klein geworden, denn einige hundert Meter weiter entsteht gerade ein neues, vielfach höheres und größeres Center.

This is part of the Houston Space Center. I went on a tour to a huge warehouse to see people simulating living on Mars. If you drill in you can just see some Texas Longhorn cattle. The tour guide said it has something to do with Texas A&M. Anyway, other then the tour, the Space Center was pretty interesting and I have the T-Shirt ..:)

My hometown has a new media center. I think it very much looks like a flatscreen ;-) but i liked the structure and texture. The original building is blue, but in bw it looks black and white. Shot with a Samyang 14mm lens.

A blaze of color, rooted in stillness.

Home of the Kansas City Symphony and one of the coolest buildings I've seen.

I have way too many shots of Lantana flowers on my hard drive, but I just can't help it...{=P

UP YPR60B pulls up next to the Chicago Tribune's Freedom Center which is still buzzing with activity despite what's to come. The building opened in 1981 replacing the Tribune's original printing presses underneath the Tribune Tower in what is now River North. It will be torn down this summer to make way for the new Bally's casino with printing operations being moved to another plant in Schaumburg.

Cleveland, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 2024

 

The Center Street Bridge is a historic and functional steel bridge located in Cleveland, Ohio, known for its ability to rotate to allow river traffic to pass.

 

Bridge Type: It is a swing bridge of the Pratt Truss type, meaning it rotates on a central pivot in the middle of the river to open a two-way navigation channel, an essential feature on the Cuyahoga River.

 

Location and Function: The bridge crosses the Cuyahoga River in The Flats district. When built in 1901, it was crucial for connecting the downtown area with the west bank and facilitating the transport of goods. Today, it remains a vital artery for both road traffic and commercial navigation.

 

Historical Significance: It is one of the oldest swing bridges still in service in the region and represents Cleveland's industrial heritage and the historical importance of the Cuyahoga River to Lake Erie commerce and industry.

 

Design: Although the superstructure has been modified over time, the base and the swinging mechanism remain.

Detroit, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA 2024

 

The Renaissance Center (often shortened to RenCen) is a complex of seven interconnected skyscrapers in Downtown Detroit, Michigan, situated on the bank of the Detroit River.

 

Design and Purpose: Construction began in the mid-1970s, and it was conceived as an ambitious urban renewal project aimed at revitalizing Downtown Detroit. The cylindrical, reflective design was created to capture global attention.

 

Key Landmark: The tallest tower in the complex is the Detroit Marriott at the Renaissance Center, at 73 stories, which is the tallest building in Michigan and the tallest hotel skyscraper in the Western Hemisphere.

 

Current Function: The complex serves as the world headquarters for General Motors (GM). It also houses office space, restaurants, retail stores, and a hotel.

 

Significance: The RenCen is an urban landmark representing both the vision of a modern future for Detroit and its corporate legacy, visually dominating the city skyline.

A truly magnificent building.
