The Secretariat building is one of the most significant conlonial-time buildings in India. Located at the heart of New Delhi, the building was started in 1912 and completed in 1927. It still houses a number of government offices.
After the colorful exuberance of the previous image, I felt the need for something more subdued...
The Fairmount Water Works, designed in 1812, is one of the earliest public water supplies in the US and the first to use paddle wheels to move water. It operated until 1909 and now houses a museum and a restaurant. The hilltop behind the building was flattened to make a reservoir. In its place now stands Philadelphia Art Museum.
Lyon - Place des Terreaux and Hôtel de Ville. Horses of the Bartholdi Fountain are in the foreground.
It's funny that flickr thinks there is a tree in this image...
Another image from the Harpa concert hall in Reykjavik. One of the most impressive pieces of modern architecture I've seen, with a certain fractal quality to it: the closer you look, the more fascinating details you see.
This is a ceiling detail, and reflections are of this gallery.
Explored 5/22/22 at #23. Rather unexpectedly, I thought it was too soon for an explore.
A quiet corner of Vieux Lyon on the bank of the Saône: Palais de Justice and Cathedrale St-Jean. I like the tight composition and the variety of architectural styles.
Old town hall, originally built in 1570-1573 and subsequently redesigned several times. The statue of Prince Johann Wilhelm, also known as Jan Wellem, has been erected in 1703.
An elegant Beaux-Arts façade in Toronto, showcasing limestone trim, yellow brickwork, and intricate Art Deco details. The symmetry of the arched windows and grand limestone entrance captures the civic pride and craftsmanship of early 20th-century design. Photographed by Ashley L. Duffus (A Great Capture) in Fall 2025, this image celebrates Toronto’s rich architectural heritage and enduring sense of place.

The U.S. Capitol under a low ceiling of storm clouds. Rain-darkened pavers and a monochrome treatment give the stone a heavier, more civic weightâquiet, watchful, and a little foreboding.
Bold red typography stands out against weathered concrete at the Beaches Olympic Pool in Toronto. A relic of mid-century civic design, the word itself becomes a statement — a reminder that transformation can speak softly, yet resonate deeply.
This Classical Revival-style two story station was constructed circa 1940. This is the only historic classical revival-style fire station building remaining in Houston today, as well as one of the few remaining examples of "civic architecture" in the city dating from the mid-20th Century. It's now a protected landmark....don't think that was the case when this photo was taken.

At the corner where Lisbon’s Avenida da Liberdade meets Rua Alexandre Herculano, a striking dialogue unfolds between two centuries of architecture. An ornate Art Nouveau façade, adorned with soft blue stucco and intricate plaster details, stands in seamless conversation with a gleaming glass tower that rises above it. Together they tell the story of Lisbon’s evolving urban identity—a city where modernity doesn’t erase the past but embraces it.
The original early twentieth-century structure, with its sculpted balconies and arched windows, reflects the optimism of a newly industrial Portugal. Its elegant symmetry and classical ornamentation reveal a careful balance between restraint and flourish, typical of Lisbon’s Belle Époque architectural vocabulary. Corinthian pilasters, carved garlands, and wrought-iron railings were designed not just for beauty, but as a statement of civic pride—an architectural promise that the city would always look upward.
Decades later, when Lisbon began to redefine itself for the contemporary era, the building’s upper floors were encased in mirrored glass. Rather than demolish or conceal the older façade, architects chose to preserve and reinterpret it—an act of adaptive reuse that honors both craftsmanship and progress. The new structure reflects clouds, sky, and surrounding rooftops, creating a living canvas that changes with each passing moment.
Standing here, one can feel the weight of Lisbon’s layered history. Horse-drawn carriages once clattered along this boulevard; now bicycles and electric cars glide by. Pedestrians pause at the corner café, their reflections rippling across the mirrored façade. Above them, the Art Nouveau curves—each carved flourish weathered but resilient—remind us that permanence and change can coexist in the same breath.
The interplay of glass and stone becomes a metaphor for Lisbon itself: a city shaped by earthquakes and empires, now reborn through creativity and respect for its architectural heritage. The reflection of the historic dome within the tower’s surface is more than coincidence—it’s dialogue made visible. The building stands as a case study in urban evolution, where architectural preservation becomes an act of storytelling.
In architectural photography, moments like this invite both precision and wonder. The vertical sweep of the façade draws the eye upward, while the mirrored surfaces blur the boundaries between solid form and open sky. It’s a composition of contrast and continuity—old craftsmanship meeting modern abstraction.
Lisbon’s enduring charm lies in this balance: the courage to build forward without forgetting the artistry behind. This corner, caught between reflection and reality, feels like the city in miniature—resilient, elegant, and endlessly reinventing itself.
Warm late-day light washes the pink-granite dome of the Texas State Capitol in Austin. A monument statue on the right balances the frame, while a mackerel cloud sky adds texture behind the classical architecture and live oaks on the grounds.
The City Hall provides the backdrop for the Nathan Phillips Square and has proved a very successful piece of civic architecture. All praise to Toronto City for the courage and vision to commission this. We loved it and the cafe on the ground floor was excellent!
The Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee, Florida, is an architecturally and historically significant building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Capitol is at the intersection of Apalachee Parkway and South Monroe Street in downtown Tallahassee, Florida.
The Historic Capitol, sometimes called "The Old Capitol," built in 1845, was threatened with demolition in the late 1970s when the new capitol building was built. Having been restored to its 1902-version in 1982, the Historic Capitol is directly behind the new Capitol building. Its restored space includes the Governor's Suite, Supreme Court, House of Representatives and Senate chambers, rotunda, and halls. Its adapted space contains a museum exhibiting the state's political history, the Florida Historic Capitol Museum, which is managed by the Florida Legislature. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the Historic Capitol Building (Restoration) on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.
The New Tower houses executive and legislative offices and the chambers of the Florida Legislature (consisting of the Florida Senate and Florida House of Representatives).
The buildings are universally, though informally, known as the Old Capitol and the New Capitol; the former is sometimes called the Historic Capitol, or also, confusingly, the Florida State Capitol. The latter was its official name prior to the construction of the New Capitol in 1977 and was so called by the National Park Service even after the New Capitol was operating. Its legal name today, however, is the Florida Historic Capitol Museum. The New Capitol, as a whole, does not have a legal name. When it was planned, the Capitol Complex (which is a legal name) was going to consist of the House and Senate chambers, and the twenty-two-story office building.

Its legal name today, however, is the Florida Historic Capitol Museum. The New Capitol, as a whole, does not have a legal name. When it was planned, the Capitol Complex (which is a legal name) was going to consist of the House and Senate chambers, and the twenty-two-story office building.

The Florida State Capitol in Tallahassee, Florida, is an architecturally and historically significant building listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Capitol is at the intersection of Apalachee Parkway and South Monroe Street in downtown Tallahassee, Florida.
The Historic Capitol, sometimes called "The Old Capitol," built in 1845, was threatened with demolition in the late 1970s when the new capitol building was built. Having been restored to its 1902-version in 1982, the Historic Capitol is directly behind the new Capitol building. Its restored space includes the Governor's Suite, Supreme Court, House of Representatives and Senate chambers, rotunda, and halls. Its adapted space contains a museum exhibiting the state's political history, the Florida Historic Capitol Museum, which is managed by the Florida Legislature. On April 18, 2012, the AIA's Florida Chapter placed the Historic Capitol Building (Restoration) on its list of Florida Architecture: 100 Years. 100 Places.
The New Tower houses executive and legislative offices and the chambers of the Florida Legislature (consisting of the Florida Senate and Florida House of Representatives).
