Last one I promise! Just to show what it looked like before the super-crop.
Don't feel you have to comment again! :-)

From Wikipedia : "Victoria Street runs on an east–west axis from Victoria station to Broad Sanctuary at Westminster Abbey. Cardinal Place, across the street from Westminster Cathedral, opened in 2006 and contains a selection of restaurants, banks and shops, including a Marks and Spencer store. Further along the street, there is a large House of Fraser department store (formerly the Army & Navy) opposite Westminster City Hall. At the Broad Sanctuary end is the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy building, the headquarters of Transport for London at Windsor House, and the former New Scotland Yard building (headquarters of the Metropolitan Police Service from 1967 to 2016)."

This is the building I worked in for the NHS, before I recklessly chucked it all away! My office was on the second floor, straight ahead.
It was a nice sunny day when we went for our walk here, but very windy! To the left of this picture is the Guildhall (pic to follow)
It looks like sitting on an old farm, but actually it is on a busy street (Chestnut) in Asheville and housing several offices.
A couple of website follow which are useful for learning more about what constitutes the so-called "Queen Anne Style" of architecture in the United States.

By renowned architect John Honeyman, 1878. 2-storey and attic 4-bay Scots Baronial municipal buildings on corner site. Stugged and coursed cream sandstone; ashlar dressings. Base and cill course; ashlar mullioned windows; roll-moulded arrises; crowstepped gables. Doorcase to centre at Princes Street elevation with coat-of-arms above; semi-circular arched doorway. Taller gabled bay to left, tripartite window at ground; bipartite mullioned and transomed window at 1st floor; corbelled course with rope moulding above stepped over bipartite window and extended to bays to right; window to gablehead with cartouche above cornice. Angle tourelles flanking gable. Pair of windows to right of doorcase; window to centre at 1st floor, 2 windows symmetrically disposed to right, 2 finialled, pedimented windows above breaking eaves, each with decorated tympanum. Similarly detailed with corbelled oriel to right at Sinclair Street elevation. Victorian Post Box outside main entrance.
Following significant population growth, largely associated with the pioneering work of Henry Bell to develop local tourism and shipbuilding initiatives, the area became a police burgh in 1846. The new burgh commissioners acquired an old theatre on the corner of Princes Street and Sinclair Street for use as a burgh office in 1850. With further growth driven by the arrival of the railway in 1858, the burgh commissioners decided to demolish the old theatre and to erect a purpose-built structure on the site. A plaque to commemorate the life of the locally-born inventor, John Logie Baird, was unveiled on the front wall of the building by the provost William Lever in May 1952.
PLEASE, NO invitations or self promotions, THEY WILL BE DELETED. My photos are FREE to use, just give me credit and it would be nice if you let me know, thanks.
I am assuming these were office spaces, I believe in the first building I went into.
