Angle tourelles flanking gable.

Following significant population growth, largely associated with the pioneering work of Henry Bell to develop local tourism and shipbuilding initiatives, the area became a police burgh in 1846. The new burgh commissioners acquired an old theatre on the corner of Princes Street and Sinclair Street for use as a burgh office in 1850. With further growth driven by the arrival of the railway in 1858, the burgh commissioners decided to demolish the old theatre and to erect a purpose-built structure on the site. A plaque to commemorate the life of the locally-born inventor, John Logie Baird, was unveiled on the front wall of the building by the provost William Lever in May 1952.
Many of the old warehouses and buildings beside the piers in the Embarcadero district of San Francisco have been converted to office and other uses.

Normally this area by RBS on a Friday afternoon is full of office workers heading home early for the weekend, however the offices remain empty with only a small handful of staff being needed.

Sprouting ubiquitously and pushing ever-loftier heights with their glass/steel/concrete impersonal indifference within the City of London.
What's it all about?
Not THE centre for a lot of the world's funny money to be "processed" = a trip to the launderette for the price of a small commission on a heavy wheeled suitcase full of freshly-printed pinkies with no questions asked... surely?

The administration section of the Babcock Building at the South Carolina Lunatic Asylum was the last section of the building to be constructed and was completed in 1885.
Within the central building was a central hall, with offices on either side, and a connector hallway to allow for passage from between the north and south wards. The second floor contained operating rooms as well as residences for the doctors and supervisor.

Where the Boston & Maine went to die.
It was the seventh video I ever favorited on YouTube, probably in 2006 or 2007. I finally made my pilgrimage.
I visited the Amazon office London as I am doing some consultancy work for a company. I loved this statue at the front entrance and the person shows the relative size of the artwork. The statue is called In Anticipation by James Burke. It is inspired by the limitless possibilities of our next thought, move and action.

Middagje naar Leiden geweest met de trein. Had ik zin in.
Op de terugweg even moeten wachten op de trein naar Den Haag Centraal. Niet erg, op een station is altijd wel iets te fotograferen, zeker aan het begin van het blauwe uurtje.
