Excerpt from cgcc.org.hk:
Founded in 1900, the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce (CGCC) is one of the oldest and largest such chambers in Hong Kong. CGCC aims to serve the community and, advancing with time, to maintain Hong Kong’s prosperity and stability, reaching out to the world with its roots in Hong Kong and backing from the Motherland.
Anchored in Hong Kong, CGCC strives to build a business, economic and trading platform and safeguard business interests. At present, it has a membership of nearly 6,000, comprising association, company, individual and affiliate members. With businesses covering a wide spectrum of industrial and commercial activities, CGCC’s members form a strong and broad business network.

Ironwood Chamber of Commerce
The building was originally called the Chamber of Commerce Building or the Grain Exchange.It was built in 1879 as an investment property by U.S. Representative Alexander Mitchell. During the 1970s, the building underwent extensive restorations.
The Grain Exchange was located in a large three-story room in the building. The room was designed in a Simple Italian architectural style, with soaring ceilings, hand painted frescoes, gold leaf and over 10,000 sq. feet of space. The grain exchange is closely linked with the early commercial history of Milwaukee, when for a brief time, the city was the world’s largest primary wheat market for trading, exporting and inspecting grain. Milwaukee’s lake port was near vast acres of wheat in the state, so the Milwaukee grain exchange conveniently located there and invented and utilized the very first octagonal trading pit. The grain exchange operated from 1880 to 1935.[4]
The Mackie Building is adjacent to the Mitchell Building, which was also built by Alexander Mitchell, also designed by E. Townsend Mix and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
But when the Mackie Flats apartments begin opening in December, they will mark a $14 million transformation for one of Milwaukee's best-known historic properties.
The apartments are coming to the six-story Mackie Building, 225 E. Michigan St., which also features the Grain Exchange Room, an ornate banquet facility; a clock tower that is being restored to working condition and even a series of grotesques — heads of lions and dragons — which decorate the building's exterior.
"It's built like a castle," said Jeffers, whose group bought the building in 2014.
The apartments will be on the top three floors, taking space that was used as office

Excerpt from www.geocaching.com: Scottish born philanthropist and steel magnate Andrew Carnegie established a foundation which funded the building of public libraries in communities across North America. Gravenhurst made late application but nonetheless witnessed the opening of its own Carnegie Library in 1923. It was enlarged in 1975 and has since been designated a heritage structure by the Town. A statue of Norman Bethune funded by the Town stands out front. It was unveiled by Governor General Adrienne Clarkson in 2000.
The Key West Chamber for all the world appears to be a former church building. In fact that is what we thought it was as we passed.
Columbus, Ga. has a long history as a bustling business community. After all, Columbus was founded in 1827 specifically as a trading town by the General Assembly of Georgia. What began as a pitched tent encampment would by the end of 1829 become a town with more than 1,000 residents. It was business that brought us here, and business was good. So good, in fact, that in a mere 20 years removed from the simple surveying of streets, it was clear that a board of trade was needed to not only advocate on behalf of the established business community’s best interest, but to also foster an economic environment that would welcome new businesses to the area. So, in 1847, the Greater Columbus Georgia Chamber of Commerce was formed as the Columbus Board of Trade. And ever since that day, the history of the Chamber of Commerce has mirrored the history of Columbus itself. When we earned the nickname the “Lowell of the South,” when Fort Benning began its heroic march to excellence, when Pemberton developed the recipe for Coca-Cola, when the 1996 Olympics brought the world to our home, the Greater Columbus Georgia Chamber of Commerce stood side by side with the city fathers, the business leaders, the community managers, and skilled citizenry who helped weave our hometown dreams become into the fabric of our history.

I’ve expressed my distaste for wide angle / fisheye lens distortion in the past and the composition here doesn’t sit very well with me for that reason… that being said – I still feel it’s interesting enough to post here…
Still haven’t had the chance to visit everyone’s photostreams… sorry : (
