The second quadrangle at Jesus college. This part of the college was begun in 1640, the work was interrupted by the Civil war and resumed again in 1676, and it not completely finished until 1712. It's famous the Dutch gables (which is what that type of 'facade topping' is called).
This Cambridge college was founded (and this part of the college built) in the 1880s. The style is Victorian Late Perpendicular Gothic Revival (though to my untrained eyes it looks an awful lot like Tudor revival), designed by the architect Sir Arthur Blomfield.

The little girl with her guitar looked so adorable. As we walked the same direction, I took few photos along the way.

Oxford University. This college was closed to the public so I took the photo from the entrance arch over the gate. It was open doors weekend in Oxford. Some opened to the public on Saturday and some on Sunday. Our photowalk was on the Sunday so assume this was accessible the previous day.
Taken on a very foggy morning on the campus of Western Oregon University which is about four blocks from my house.

From Wikipedia:
The original College was badly damaged in the Great Fire of London. In 1886 Sion College was moved to new buildings at 56 Victoria Embankment, between Carmelite Street and John Carpenter Street. It became principally known for its theological library which served as a lending library to members of the college, and was accessible to the public.
In 1996, the college disposed of its large Victorian premises on the banks of the River Thames. The building has been converted into offices. The library was closed June 1996, with the manuscripts, pamphlets, and pre-1850 printed books going to Lambeth Palace Library, and newer books to The Maughan Library, King's College London. Its activities now take place in a variety of locations.

About the statue:
Taxi! is the title of J. Seward Johnson Jr's unusual bronze statue, which freeze-frames a city worker, presumably homeward bound after a day at the office. Taxi! was in fact sculpted in 1983, originally standing on Park Avenue and 47th Street in New York.
Like many of Johnson's sculptures, this one was originally painted all over, making him eerily realistic — and likely spooking a number of New York cabbies. In fact, in his New York Times obituary, it's claimed that firefighters tried to 'rescue' another of Johnson's statues following the 9/11 attacks, believing it to be a real man.
