I spent 24 years in telecommunications and have never seen a tower this overbuilt. I’m thinking (based on the design) it may be the remains of a water tower. Seeing microwave horns struck on a a fluted concrete tower just oddly fascinated me.

Ring shank is made from a stainless steel spoon handle, the ring has interchangeable heads. I made the thread for the interchangeable heads by cutting off a 5ml screw and attached it by drilling hole and making a thread in the shank itself. The screw has a hole drilled through its centre so that it can accommodate an earring (pearl and pink cubic zirconium shown in pics) and use a hexagon nut and wing nut as interchangeable heads.

St. Louis is an independent city and inland port in the U.S. state of Missouri. It is situated along the western bank of the Mississippi River, which marks Missouri's border with Illinois. The Missouri River merges with the Mississippi River just north of the city. These two rivers combined form the fourth longest river system in the world. The city had an estimated 2017 population of 308,626 and is the cultural and economic center of the St. Louis metropolitan area (home to nearly 3,000,000 people), which is the largest metropolitan area in Missouri, the second-largest in Illinois (after Chicago), and the 22nd-largest in the United States.
Before European settlement, the area was a regional center of Native American Mississippian culture. The city of St. Louis was founded in 1764 by French fur traders Pierre Laclède and Auguste Chouteau, and named after Louis IX of France. In 1764, following France's defeat in the Seven Years' War, the area was ceded to Spain and retroceded back to France in 1800. In 1803, the United States acquired the territory as part of the Louisiana Purchase. During the 19th century, St. Louis became a major port on the Mississippi River; at the time of the 1870 Census it was the fourth-largest city in the country. It separated from St. Louis County in 1877, becoming an independent city and limiting its own political boundaries. In 1904, it hosted the Louisiana Purchase Exposition and the Summer Olympics.
The economy of metropolitan St. Louis relies on service, manufacturing, trade, transportation of goods, and tourism. Its metro area is home to major corporations, including Anheuser-Busch, Express Scripts, Centene, Boeing Defense, Emerson, Energizer, Panera, Enterprise, Peabody Energy, Ameren, Post Holdings, Monsanto, Edward Jones, Go Jet, Purina and Sigma-Aldrich. Nine of the ten Fortune 500 companies based in Missouri are located within the St. Louis metropolitan area. The city has also become known for its growing medical, pharmaceutical, and research presence due to institutions such as Washington University in St. Louis and Barnes-Jewish Hospital. St. Louis has two professional sports teams: the St. Louis Cardinals of Major League Baseball and the St. Louis Blues of the National Hockey League. One of the city's iconic sights is the 630-foot (192 m) tall Gateway Arch in the downtown area.

City Museum is a museum whose exhibits consist largely of repurposed architectural and industrial objects, housed in the former International Shoe building in the Washington Avenue Loft District of St. Louis, Missouri, United States. Opened in 1997, the museum attracted more than 700,000 visitors in 2010.
The City Museum has been named one of the "great public spaces" by the Project for Public Spaces, and has won other local and international awards as a must-see destination. It has been described as "a wild, singular vision of an oddball artistic mind."

Our dog Sarah is buried in here and it is a place for our compost as well as a charnel ground for dead animals we find on our property. Oh.. and an herb garden. Everything grows well in here.

Most people have mobile phones now so the use of the traditional telephone box has plummeted but there are a few that have been re-evaluated like this one in Nottingham.
This building survived for 101 years, being repurposed a couple of times and even surviving a fire in 1983. Pyramid Place was not closed for very long before demolition which started in early January of this year. Here are some leftovers at Club Se7en from their 2020 New Year's Eve party.
