Bank for International Settlements, Basel, Switzerland
"The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) is an international financial institution owned by central banks which "fosters international monetary and financial cooperation and serves as a bank for central banks". The BIS carries out its work through its meetings, programmes and through the Basel Process – hosting international groups pursuing global financial stability and facilitating their interaction. It also provides banking services, but only to central banks and other international organizations."

Architect: Marin Burckhard. Construction: 1972 to 1977
Sam Stephenson former Central Bank building in the centre of Dublin is liked and loathed in equal amounts. Many of his buildings were built on sites that cleared by the demolition of Georgian and Victorian buildings, at times inspiring great controversy. his Dame street site being no different, sweeping away Dublin’s much loved 1799 Commercial buildings to create the central bank plaza that his cantilever Central Bank Building site now sits on.
Approval was given for a 15-storey skyscraper in November 1967 which was later turned down by Dublin Corporation. Permission was granted for a 13-storey, Seagram-style block with the retention of the facade of the Commercial Buildings. This was later revised down from 176 feet high to 120 feet. This design was rejected as too obtrusive.
The design and construction of the Central Bank building were unique, being the only suspended structure in Ireland, and one of perhaps 20 in the world. The building is based around two central concrete cores, with floorspace suspended around them by twelve sets of external supports. During construction, the concrete cores were built first, and each floor was built at ground level and then raised into place. The rooftop supports were originally exposed on the roof, giving the building an even more distinctive profile, but were later contained in copper cladding due to issues with rainwater.
Nearing the end of construction, the building was discovered to have reached a height of 150 feet (46 m), exceeding 120 feet approved by Dublin Corporation, and it was suggested that the building would have to be rebuilt using traditional methods, allowing the hangers to be removed. It was the engineering required on the roof from the hanging floors that had increased the height of the block. Construction was halted for a year. Rather than reducing the building's height so late in construction, the Central Bank appealed to Minister for Local Government James Tully who approved the height increase. The project, which was carried out by Sisk Group, was finally completed in 1978, and included a replica of the Commercial Buildings in a different location on the site. This replica used the facade, which was supposed to be retained in situ, but this was abandoned when the adjoining Georgian-style buildings were also acquired. This allowed Stephenson to re-orientate the building to face Fownes Street. The original facade was discarded and a replica constructed in its place. By the time the whole development was finished in 1978, it had cost £10 million, more than five times the initial budget, still today this Dublin landmark is no less more liked and loathed by Dubliners.

So...this is my home. I recently had to write a short French paper about the city I know best and this is it. I like being away from it, but when i'm away, I love coming back!
Had to make a relatively quick trip to the Speed Art Museum today and didn't want it to feel like a complete waste of time, so I jumped across the Ohio and stood outside with 2 cameras and gloves that weren't thick enough...for an hour. By the time I left, I couldn't feel my fingers, but I love this pano, mainly because it's different from my usual night shot from this perspective.
Frankfurt is the major financial centre of the European continent, with the headquarter of the European Central Bank (the tall highrise on the right) and many other banks.
The city is often being referred to as „Bankfurt“ or „Mainhattan“ (because of its location on the river Main).
Gustav Adolfs torg 18 in Stockholm is the address of the building that was erected in 1912-1914 as the head office of Sweden's Private Central Bank.
The bank had been formed in 1912 as a central bank for 14 provincial banks. In the same year, Hotel Germania was demolished on Gustav Adolf's square 18 and according to Isak Gustaf Clason's drawings, a magnificent baroque palace was built on the site. Heavy ionic colossal pilasters in light bohus granite, together with a heavily modeled ceiling molding dominate the house's yellow-plastered surfaces. The building was completed in 1914.

These came into circulation in January. This is the first one I've seen. Apparently 4.5 million were minted,

It's interesting the silhouetted buildings that can be made out on the skyline. If you judge a city it's highest structures, the tallest being the monuments of worship to that particular culture or industry, then we value: communications, tourism (used to be religion), construction and finance (see notes above).
But the main thing I think it's safe to say, is that Dublin does not do skyscrapers.
Let’s believe the dialectical faith of wokeism (woke Marxism), let’s join their dialectical cult! Since society is full of injustice and inequality, let’s tear it down and rebuilt it into a communist utopia—let’s Build Back Better. Let’s awaken to a higher consciousness, let’s awaken to a critical consciousness (critical Marxism)—to negative thinking (capitalism is bad). You’re a racist (a capitalist). The system (capitalism) is systemically racist. Let’s awaken the inner activist, let’s awaken the communist revolutionary. What will all this evolve into? It will evolve into the abolishment of private property. Communism: you will own nothing and be happy. Communism: equality for all! Communism: it’s for the greater good! Communism: the ends justify the means: murder, starvation, and the gulags! Marxism causes tribalism and division, because it’s intolerant of everything it doesn’t like. Get your reeducation: diversity, equity, and inclusion. DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion): a precursor to a Social Credit Score System. ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance): a Social Credit Score System for companies (Can anybody say: Bud Light!). The Green Transition: equality (poverty) for all! Climate communism: climate justice, climate equity, climate sustainability, climate lockdowns! Sustainability: the road to a good global citizen consciousness!
The fifth tenet of the Communist Manifesto: “Centralization of credit in the hands of the state, by means of a national bank with State capital and an exclusive monopoly.” Three cheers for central banking…not! Lenin: “The best way to destroy the capitalist system is to debauch the currency.” Three cheers for fait money…not! Stakeholder Capitalism is Fascism. Why do you think the (WEF) World Economic Fascists like to talk about Stakeholder Capitalism? The Free Market is the enemy of Stakeholder Capitalism. Grover Cleveland: “Corporations, which should be the carefully restrained creatures of the law and the servants of the people, are fast becoming the people’s masters.” Say what: corporate personhood? So, that’s nothing, the coming New World Order will obtain Beasthood—666 worship the Beast. The Metaverse Beastsystem: techno-spiritualism in which humanity will be free from the limitations of mind, body, and soul; a techno-spirit of oneness with the universe—universal collectivism: Mystery Babylon, Babylon the Great, and the Tower of Babel—antichristism.
Here is a report by Oxford University and Imperial College London for the UK Government:
Flying (page 6):
2020-2029: “All airports except Heathrow, Glasgow and Belfast close with transfers by rail.”
2030-2049: “All remaining airports close.”
Food (page 6):
2020-2029: “National consumption of beef and lamb drops by 50%, along with reduction in frozen ready meals and air-freighted food imports.”
2030-2049: “Beef and lamb phased out, along with all imports not transported by train; fertiliser use greatly reduced.”
Tacitus: “The more numerous the laws, the more corrupt the state.”

The NWO commies at the United Nations have outlined an agenda to decriminalise ‘consensual sex’ between adults and minors in a report titled: “The 8 March Principles for a Human Rights-Based Approach to Criminal Law Proscribing Conduct Associated with Sex Reproduction, Drug Use, HIV, Homelessness and Poverty.”
Principle 16-Consensual Sexual Conduct (page 22-23):
“Moreover, sexual conduct involving persons below the domestically prescribed minimum age of consent to sex may be consensual in fact, if not in law. In this context, the enforcement of criminal law should reflect the rights and capacity of persons under 18 years of age to make decisions about engaging in consensual sexual conduct and their right to be heard in matters concerning them. Pursuant to their evolving capacities and progressive autonomy persons under 18 years of age should participate in decisions affecting them, with due regard to their age, maturity and best interests, and with specific attention to non-discrimination guarantees.”
Mark my words: pedophilia will one day become normalized (a human right).

2 Timothy 3:13 “Evil people and impostors will become worse, deceiving and being deceived.”
Daniel 11:36 “Then the king (the Antichrist) will do exactly as he pleases; he will exalt himself and magnify himself above every god and will speak astounding and disgusting things against the God of gods and he will prosper until the indignation is finished, for that which is determined [by God] will be done.”
Revelation 6:6 “And I heard a voice from among the four living beings say, ‘A loaf of wheat bread or three loaves of barley will cost a day’s pay. And don’t waste the olive oil and wine.’”
Fiat money, funny money, monopoly money…print, print that money…print it out of thin air.
If you love inflation, you’ll love hyper inflation, and if you love hyper inflation then you’ll love CRASH...BANG…BOOM…oops, there goes the economy…make room for a digital currency and a Social Credit Score System…fun, fun, fun.
The World Economic Forum says that by 2030 you’ll own nothing…universal communism is coming, and Mr. Stalin…I mean, Mr. Antichrist will rule.
The World Economic Forum says that by 2030 the United States of America will no longer be the world’s leading superpower…bye-bye U.S.A. your days are numbered…you won’t be the world’s reserve currency for much longer.
The World Economic Forum calls it a new form of capitalism…hahaha…those commies and their play on words…their words have the opposite meaning. They twist their words just like the devil.
Just like Justin Trudeau, they admire China’s basic dictatorship…woohoo…Credit Score System here we come…just as planned. If you read “None dare call it treason” you will see that the communists were allowed to take over China. Now what if we followed the money trail? What would we find? Satan has been playing chess on planet earth for a long time, slowly making his moves. But once his purpose is done, God will throw him away…bye-bye devil.
A side note on China: The Kings of the East (China and its allies) will take over Taiwan, South Korea, Japan, and any other country that isn’t one of their allies. Watch out Australia and New Zealand, weak and asleep, do you think you’ll escape? Once they have consolidated power in their part of the world they will head toward the Middle East. Watch out India, large and populated, do you think you’ll escape? They will kill a third of the earth’s population.
“A third of mankind was killed by the three plagues of fire, smoke and sulfur that came out of their mouths.” “I heard the size of their army, which was 200 million mounted troops.”
After the Battle of Armageddon when Christ annihilates the armies of the world the Bible says “In that day so few men will be left that seven women will fight for each man, saying, “Let us all marry you! We will provide our own food and clothing. Only let us take your name so we won’t be mocked as old maids.”
Titova street, Sarajevo
The imposing Central Bank building in Sarajevo, designed by Milan Zloković and built between 1929-1932, served as the main branch of the Mortgage Bank of the Kingdom of Yugoslavia and later as the German command HQ in WWII.

A magnificent ipê-roxo (Handroanthus impetiginosus) steals the show between the CAIXA and Central Bank, Setor Bancário Sul.
That’s why it was created.

The Pearl - (for sale!)
This interesting and very central building in Reykjavik, is now for sale, some 3 years after the collapse of the Icelandic banking system. This beautiful "Pearl" was constructed at the high-time of Iceland´s x-prime-minister, major of Reykjavik for a long time, and later presiding over the Centralbank of Iceland, (before this very central representative of Iceland, and member of the still little known Bilderberg-group, who in somewhat still a historically shrouded mystery, handed the national banks into the hands of a few loyal citizens, that later became active in the enormous fall of Iceland´s economy. - (Some humorists have suggested that this beautiful monument, "The Pearl" should be reformed into an official laundry-machine for the whole community of Reykjavik, because of it´s central situation!) The "Pearl" still boasts of being one of the hottest-spots in Reykjavik, if only for the tourist industry and can from now stand a warning sign, of what not to do, as it beams multicolored light-signals out into the darkness, guiding the tourist´s mind to Yoko Ono´s Peace sign, a few kilometers away, that still beams a message of Peace out into the darkness of Earth; crying up to the Heavens a plead for Peace upon this Planet, and thus urging us to fight for Peace and make Love - Not War.
