San Sebastian Church is located in Quiapo, one of Manila's older districts. Surrounding it are rows of old houses. The Church of San Sebastian is made of a steel frame and panels and is known for its distinct characteristic - that of being the only neo-gothic steel church in the Philippines and in Asia.
The steel parts were manufactured in the Societe Anonyme's foundry in Binche, Belgium and were shipped to Manila. On June 12, 1888, the first shipment of steel parts were brought to the Philippines. For two years, the church was assembled with local artists and craftsmen joining the Belgian firm in applying the final finishing touches on this new church of steel. The stained glass windows were imported from the Henri Oidtmann Company, a German stained glass firm.
On June 24, 1890, the Church of San Sebastian was raised into the status of a minor basilica. The following year, on August 15, 1891, the all-steel church of San Sebastian was inaugurated and blessed. The interior of the church display groined vaults. Styled along neo-Gothic lines, the steel parts of columns, walls and ceiling were painted to resemble marble and jasper by Filipino artist Lorenzo Rocha and his students. True to the Gothic revival spirit of the church are its confessionals, pulpit and altars as designed by Filipino artist Lorenzo Guerrero. He with fellow artist Eulogio Garcia carved the statues of holy men and women. Trompe l'oeil paintings was used to decorate the interiors of the church.
The Church of San Sebastian is a reflection of the late 19th century innovations in architecture, art and construction.

Richard J. Daley Center
Architect: C.F. Murphy Associates
Date: 1965
Style: International
Address: 50 West Washington Street
Height: 648 ft. (32 Floors)
Exterior: Exposed Corten Steel
Structural
Material: Steel
Program: Court House and Government Office
The structural columns of the Richard J. Daley Center are 87 feet apart, which is a relatively large span. Towards the top of the columns, the width diminishes as the floors require less support.
For four years, from 1965 to 1969, the Daley Center was the tallest building in Chicago. In 2001, it received historical status, only 36 years after its completion. The building has a small height to floor ratio, due to the large floor to floor distance of 18 feet.

LMS Coronation Pacific No 46223 "Duchess of Sutherland" passing the soon to be redundant Stirling Middle signalbox with the "75th Anniversary Special" express from Perth to Sheffield on 7th September 2013. Typically, these locomotives spent their long working lives hurrying similar, heavy expresses along this road. The historic semaphore signals are of Caledonian Railway origin and are doomed to be replaced with a new colourlight system. The re-signalling works are proceeding apace, so this is likely to be the final record, here, embracing such delightfully apposite subjects. (Please view F11 in lightbox for intended best.)

RE : The roof is glazed with photovoltaic (solar electric) panels, consisting of 2,800 thin-film modules from SCHOTT (Germany) and covering a surface of 76,000 square feet. The solar panel system has a nominal power of about 210 kWp, which generates an annual output of 250,000 kW hours, which the station can use to offset power needs. It is the largest renewable-energy enabled mass transit station in the United States.
