It is the see of the Archbishop of Rouen, Primate of Normandy. [...]. The cathedral, built and rebuilt over a period of more than eight hundred years, has features from Early Gothic to late Flamboyant and Renaissance architecture.[...]
The transept is unusually large and brightly lit thanks to the large rose windows on the north and south and the large windows below them in the triforium of each transept.

This is an old shot (obviously) that I didn't post because it irked me that I didn't quite get my viewpoint precise enough. I also thought the grey, concrete steps were too uninteresting. But looking at it again now, I think the grey, cold concrete actually makes the shot as it contrasts so well with the beautiful vibrant autumn tones and the softness of the fallen leaves. A damp, grey day, made more beautiful by a wonderful carpet - truly a stairway to heaven. And of course I am listening to the song as I write :) !

Riverview Hospital is a Canadian mental health facility located in Coquitlam, British Columbia. It operated under the governance of BC Mental Health & Addiction Services when it closed in July 2012.
In 1904 the provincial government purchased 1,000 acres (400 ha) in then-rural Coquitlam for the construction of Riverview Hospital.
Patients were originally housed in temporary buildings, and in 1913 the building that would eventually be called West Lawn began treating the 300 most seriously ill male patients. The building was originally constructed to hold 480 patients. By the end of the year it housed 919.
