Alleyway Theatre, Curtain Up Alley at Main Street, Buffalo, New York state.
Partial quote from the theatre's web site:
"Alleyway Theatre is located in Buffalo, New York’s Theatre Historic District. Constructed in 1941 by Central Greyhound Lines, the building served for decades as the city’s primary bus depot. It is one of the many terminals designed by nationally prominent architect William S. Arrasmith of Louisville who created over one hundred stations for Greyhound in the late thirties and early forties.
The Alleyway Building is one of Buffalo’s most prominent examples of the Art Moderne style. The streamlined two story structure boasts the important features which defined the work of W. S. Arrasmith including round windows, curved wall surfaces, stainless steel and aluminum alloy trimmings, terrazzo floors, limestone façade, and exterior surfaces of glazed tile. This building is one of only a handful of Mr. Arrasmith’s creations which is still standing."

Over the Canadian Thanksgiving/ Columbus Day (in the U.S.) long weekend, I met up with Eridony (Brandon) in Buffalo, New York. It was the third time that Brandon and I met up.
Buffalo is a city in western New York state on the eastern shore of Lake Erie, it's located about 17 miles (27 kms) south of Niagara Falls. During the 19th century and up to the 1950s, Buffalo was a boom town and a major industrial and transportation hub due to its location along the Erie Canal, railroads and Lake Erie. Between the 1860s and 1910s, Buffalo actually ranked as the top 10 largest cities in the U.S. (Thanks for that info, Brandon!) During that period, Buffalo built many impressive public and private buildings, many of which have survived till today.
Buffalo had suffered decades of economic and population decline, but in the past ten years, appears to be recovering very slowly.
In april 2017 was voor de laatste maal kermis op de Dam: het werd té druk, vond de gemeente en schrapte de vergunning.
Een jaar later zou ook lijn 14 hier voorgoed verdwijnen....

Bamberg, Untere Brücke, Bronzeskulptur "Centurione I" von Igor Mitoraj
Auf der unteren Brücke, die zum Alten Rathaus auf einer Insel in der Regnitz führt, steht die Bronzeskulptur "Centurione I" von Igor Miroraj. Bamberg, der Sitz des Grafengeschlechts der Babenberger, wurde unter Kaiser Heinrich II. (973 - 1024) Bischofsstadt und erhielt mit dem Dom sein architektonisches und geistiges Zentrum. Die im letzten Weltkrieg verschonte Altstadt besitzt den größten unversehrt erhaltenen historischen Stadtkern Deutschlands und gehört seit 1993 zum UNESCO-Weltkulturerbe.
Igor Mitoraj wurde 1944 in Polen geboren und studierte Kunst in Krakau und Paris. Nach einem Aufenthalt in Südamerika, dessen Kultur und Kunst ihn faszinierte, widmete er sich ausschliesslich der Skulptur und arbeite in Terrakotta und Bronze. Marmor wurde zu seinem Hauptmedium nach einer Reise nach Carrara, in dessen Nähe er 1983 sein Studio in Pietrasanta einrichtete. Seine Skulpturen haben ihre Wurzeln im klassischen Altertum, zeigen jedoch auch postmodernen Einflüsse.
Modernist lines dominate the urban scene such as in this pedestrian mid-block connection between B Street and Pier 4 Boulevard on the South Boston Waterfront. Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Huizenblok - een van de twee - uit 1926 aan de 2e Scheepvaartstraat in Hoek van Holland van architect J.J.P. Oud. De architect zelf vond dat er in zijn ontwerp sprake was van 'poëtisch functionalisme'. Dat poëtische zal 'm in de rondingen aan de uiteinden van de blokken zitten. Theo van Doesburg vond het maar niks ('een ver doorgevoerde Van de Velde-architectuur'); het leidde tot een breuk tussen Oud en De Stijl, waar hij tot dan toe deel van uitmaakte. Het was voor hem een afscheid van het pure functionalisme, gaandeweg zouden zijn ontwerpen een zekere monumentaliteit, om niet te zeggen pompeusheid krijgen.
