Lavaca County Courthouse, Hallettesville, Texas

This pretty little 1898 house isn't listed in the city's historic homes guide, suggesting that its restoration may have been relatively recent.

The Town Hall tower in close-up - remarkably assertive with its own colonnade and a stretched cupola to emphasise the sense of verticality. The architect, Brodrick, came from Hull and was a precocious talent and an unfathomable character - and the subject of a TV documentary by Jonathan Meades.

I guess this style works in dry climate. Carroll Aveue must have been the quietest place I've eperienced in more crowded areas of L.A.

I'm not educated in these things but it looks like it might have been a Victorian farmhouse rather than an urbane middle class dwelling.

The Banqueting Hall.

 

Despite all the opulent detailing in the Banqueting Hall, it’s a model of restraint compared with elsewhere in the castle. There’s an unusual air of sobriety – the character of the original medieval interior still remains.

Winter Smoking Room. The gilded figure holds a representation of the sun. Apples are gathered on the right in the corner of the Autumn panel.

School of Art, designed in Ruskinian Gothic style by J H Chamberlain, built 1884-85. This is the Margaret Street façade and entrance porch surrounded by a profusion of carved decorative stonework. A frieze of Doulton tilework extends across the frontage.

Built in 1899 in the Colonial Revival style, it is one of the few remaining examples of Victorian architecture in the Arlington Heights area.

Texte original en français (English version is further down)

 

Quand on le regarde de ce bord-ci on ne se rend pas compte tellement que le bâtiment du "Old Vic" est en rénovation et qu'à l'instant même le TCAF s'y déroule.

 

C'est grâce aux immenses fenêtres au milieu au 2e étage que la salle de séminaire VC211, qui contenait la bande Dumbrella et la bande du Dayfree Press (ainsi que la jolie Meredith Gran et la jolie Danielle Corsetto) pouvait être si lumineuse.

 

English version of the original French text (L'original en Français est en haut)

 

Viewed from this side the Old Vic College doesn't look like it's being renovated and it sure doesn't look like it's filled with the TCAF right now.

 

The big windows on the second floor, right in the middle, are the secret to the stunning luminosity of the VC 211 seminar room in which the Dumbrella gang and the Dayfree Press bunch were hawking their wares, along with Meredith Gran and Danielle Corsetto.

Cardiff is the home of a couple of Victorian Arcades. They're wonderful. Rent can't be to high, the shops are odd ball emporiums, costume shops and indie slow food cafés. The upper store often has vacant windows. It all breathes the air of old Victorian age and decay.
