The original terminal station building was constructed between 1895 and 1905 as a replacement for the first terminus of the Brussels-Mechelen-Antwerp railway. The stone-clad building was designed by Louis Delacenserie. The viaduct into the station is also a notable structure designed by local architect Jan Van Asperen. A plaque on the north wall bears the name Middenstatie, an expression now antiquated in Dutch.
The station is widely regarded as the finest example of railway architecture in Belgium.
A shot of some cast iron buildings on Broome St in the SoHo district of Manhattan.There are 26 blocks with approximately 500 buildings in SoHo,with about 250 of them incorporating cast-iron architectural elements (mostly on the façades).The district came to the public's attention for being an area that had artist's lofts and art galleries during the 1960s.The artists were attracted to the high ceilings and large windows used to display their works.Today,SoHo consists mostly of a variety of shops ranging from upscale trendy boutiques to national and international chain store outlets.In 2010 there were three times as many boutiques than at galleries.Many of the chain stores are on Broadway,about three blocks north of this shot and runs between Houston St in the east and Canal St in the west.SoHo was designated NYC-Cast Iron Historic District landmark in 1973.
This ivy clad tree is on the Ripon Canal between Renton's Bridge and Nicholson's Bridge. On the left, you can see Ripon Racecourse
The Ripon Canal is located in North Yorkshire, England. It was built by the canal engineer William Jessop to link the city of Ripon with the navigable section of the River Ure at Oxclose Lock, from where boats could reach York and Hull. First used in 1773 and closed in 1956 consisting of 3 locks over its 2.3 miles
In 1961, members of the Ripon Motor Boat Club formed the Ripon Canal Company Ltd, and gradually restored the canal up to Littlethorpe. Subsequently, the Ripon Canal Society spearheaded restoration, which was completed in 1996. It is now managed by the Canal & River Trust
Just to the left of the previous shot, part of the building is covered in 3-dimentional cladding. Make Architects.

10 Hudson Yards NYC - 2016 - Architect: Kohn Pederson Fox
895-foot, 52-story futurist office building completed in 2016. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox, it was the first tower in the Hudson Yards complex to have been completed, because it is the only Hudson Yards tower not on the artificial platform over the tracks of the West Side Yards.
The prism-shaped building is clad mostly in silver glass, with a base of glass, silver metal paneling, and grey granite. The southern facade cantilevers over the 30th Street spur of the High Line, where one of the building's entrances is located. The tower bridges over the elevated park to create a dramatic 60-foot public passageway extending through the structure. Above this rises a dramatic 15-story atrium incorporated into the tower, spanning Coach's floors. The glass southern wall of the atrium serves as a visual anchor for the High Line.
10 Hudson Yards is connected to its taller sister tower, 30 Hudson Yards, by a glass enclosed, 7-story retail podium, home to The Shops and Restaurants at Hudson Yards. At the east end of 10 Hudson Yard's south facade, four enormous, granite-clad columns shaped at various angles support the cantilever over the High Line. At the west end, another structural element, this one with the glass cladding extending all the way down the street level, supports the opposite end of the tower, and together these frame the glass atrium. Five more granite columns, narrowing at their bases, form the east facade, with glass infill between them that narrows toward the top, in opposition to the stone of the piers. Above the High Line, the southeast-facing facet of the tower forms a wedge that narrows as it rises, angling slightly outwards before abruptly turning vertical as a narrow strip at the upper floors. The rest of the east and south facades have a serrated look, with the glass at each floor angling outward and overlapping the next floor.
The west facade sloped inward at the upper floors, giving the tower a leaning effect. The roof forms a slanted wedge, with two opposing triangles tilting down in opposite directions.
The ArtScience Museum is a key attraction of the Marina Bay Sands Integrated Resort located at Bayfront Avenue in Singapore. It was designed by world-renown architect Moshe Safdie, and opened its doors to the public in February 2011. This morning photograph was taken recently, showing the lower glass-clad structure and the external staircases leading to the upper structure. The structure was reflected in the pool, in the foreground, with lotus leaves and flowers.
Best wishes for a wonderful weekend!

The Blue Mountains are Sydney’s backyard playground. A World Heritage-listed wilderness where ancient rock formations cast their golden glow over vast canyons carpeted in eucalypts. A natural wonderland where waterfalls plummet into valleys clad with rainforest, and breathtaking views stretch to the hazy blue horizon.

The Woodlands Waterway offers a quiet urban corridor where nature and modern architecture meet. The waterway provides a strong central leading line that draws the eye toward the distance. Glass-clad office towers rise on both sides, their cool blue façades reflecting softly in the still surface below. The reflections are nearly symmetrical, slightly softened by gentle ripples that add movement without breaking the tranquility. On the left, a curved pedestrian promenade lined with trees guides the viewer into the scene.

A late-running Amtrak No. 8, the Empire Builder, cruises through Grizzly, Montana, on December 23, 1998. The train is leaving the snow-covered Rocky Mountains of Glacier National Park behind on this extremely cold day. Leading the silvery Superliner is an all-GE consist, led by warbonnet-clad BNSF No. 761, with P40DCs (822, 808, 817) in three different paint schemes trailing.

ARCHITECTURE
The Oculus was positioned as part of the World Trade Center masterplan by Daniel Libeskind and designed by Santiago Calatrava. The structure’s white metal-clad steel ribs reach up and out in a monumental move symbolic of a hand releasing a dove.
The structure's orientation serves as a lasting reminder of the attacks of September 11, 2001. It is in alignment with the sun’s solar angles on each September 11, from 8:46 am, when the first plane struck, until 10:28 am, when the second tower collapsed. Its central skylight fits this alignment and washes the Oculus floor with a beam of light named a "Wedge of Light" that moves across the floor and illuminates two parallel columns of light at the time of the attacks of the original Twin Towers.
Note: please refer to the Oculus below in the first comment.

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance. O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee ...

A tree smothered in Ivy where ultimately the weight of the Ivy will break some branches. The tree is n0w suffering from a disease and will do well to leaf up next year
This is Bottomsfields Lane in the North Yorkshire Moors National Park which is part of a walk from Appleton le Moors to Hutton le Hole.
The area around Lake Hawea is truly special and breathtaking offering spectacular mountain views. Corner Peak, to the left on this image, is a majestic peak (1,683m) with awesome views of the lake toward Hawea village. Unusual for the time of year, the highest peaks were still snow clad in the middle of summer. Very pretty. Glorious moment at sunrise. I stitched three separate images together in an attempt to capture the grandeur of the landscape.
We called in at Lyme Regis in the far west of Dorset on our way back from Cornwall, and walked around the medieval harbour wall known as the Cobb. It was re-clad in Portland stone back in the middle of the 19th century. Several others had gathered at the end of the Cobb to look across Lyme Bay and view the famous fossil-bearing cliffs, the tops of which had become covered in low cloud. The cliffs are among the highest on the south coast of England.
