Another angle inside one of the larger restaurant units. Modern design but not too many things of intrest.
The Duke of Wellington (looking somewhat denuded without his cone) watches over the removal of the former Clydesdale Bank building on the corner of Queen Street and Ingram Street in Glasgow (a particularly unpleasant example of brutalist 70s concrete mayhem). This site is due to be replaced with offices and retail.

Georgia Pacific's old chipper wheels. Like a giant cheese grader, it turned logs into wood chips. I've heard that sharp blades were attached to the 4 slits visible. Blades could be removed and replaced. There are two of these chippers in Bellingham. This one is in a recycling yard on West Holly Street while the other is in the waterfront redevelopment district. It will probably become sculpture.
Redevelopment of the west riverfront at the old Ottawa Street Power Station in Downtown Lansing, Michigan (7/24/2009).
Pacific View Elementary School was closed a number of years ago due to changing demographics in its coastal Encinitas neighborhood. It's been vacant - and deteriorating - ever since, as the school district and community debate the site's future.
One of many statements painted on the wall.
In my own opinion, abolishing the police is worrisome as I still think public safety is important. What is the best way to provide public safety?
One could say that a more inclusive society would have less need for as many police.
By coincidence, I had a letter to editor in this Sunday's Bellingham Herald.
Letter was to remind conservatives that funding of local government is what funds police. Some want to drown government in the bathtub, to quote anti tax advocate Grover Norquist.
Be careful what you ask for.
Personally, I have no problem with our local police, but I'll admit that my perspective is that of a fairly quiet white person.

Edinburgh University’s Holyrood North project received planning permission in 2012. Accessed from Holyrood Road, the intention is to provide new retail and social space with accommodation for 924 students, creating a new postgraduate urban village.
With demolition of relatively modern buildings complete, a strategy agreed as part of the 2009 planning permission, building the new has started. The whole project has a completion date of 2017. A public consultation was held in 2010: www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/estates-buildings/news/h...
John Hope’s masterplan aims to reinstate the historic urban form of this part of Edinburgh’s Old Town by embedding the historic closes or narrow alleys that ran from the Canongate to Holyrood Road. This built form is sometimes described as a fishbone pattern. Within it access for vehicles is limited and there are small pockets of semi-public space.
