Chautauqua Fire Hydrant. Almost too pretty that you forget it's true purpose. Added several layers to make it more fun.
I use to work in a fire hydrant factory. Parking was very expensive I kept getting hosed.

More red brick in Hell's Kitchen district. Curb appeal Interesting (to me) how the adjoining buildings meld into the street scape keeping a similar facade. These ones at 50th St. 7 9th Ave.
This rusting fire hydrant is a remnant of the abandoned Coolidge Army Air Field in the desert east of Coolidge, Arizona. Built in 1941, this military facility was decommissioned shortly after the end of World War II. There are numerous fire hydrants in this section of desert where barracks were originally located and long since demolished.

Fun Fact: your fire hydrant was probably manufactured in Alabama, where one of the US senators is threatening to withhold aid for the Los Angeles fires. Note to California: there are other manufacturers. Also, Apple's Photos app knew that I wanted to erase my feet from this shot, so I did, in spite of Tim Apple's repulsive obsequiousness in the presence of the OrangeAnus.
There is a fantastic panoramic photograph of the ruined city on the Bancroft Library earthquake page. That photograph was made from the roof of the Mark Hopkins Hotel (I may be wrong about that; will check) (I think maybe it was the Fairmont Hotel, not the Mark Hopkins) and it is a little bit further back, and a bit too the left of this view. Just as this photograph shows the ruined City Hall, so does that one. I'm guessing that a professional photographer, perhaps working for a newspaper, or perhaps just making photos on speculation, climbed up into a not completely destroyed building to make this shot. I wonder if he or she used a glass negative, and if the line in the upper right of the photo isn't a place where the negative cracked and was repaired. I haven't seen this photo elsewhere, but I would be very surprised if it didn't exist. If somebody stumbles on it, send me a link.
This is photo # 800, which makes it a member of The Century Club.
This shot was taken nowhere near Portland, Oregon as the writing on the hydrant might suggest.
From a ghost town expedition. See set for more details.
