One of several beautiful stained glass windows in the Bishop's Palace on Broadway in Galveston, Texas.
Built in 1886 by Col. Walter Gresham who fought in the U.S. Civil War. The house was then one of the most lavish and massive homes in the U.S. and is a Victorian adaptation of a Renaissance style.
The Catholic Diocese bought the home in 1923.
This series of 21 window shots comes from an old paper mill where I had the opportunity to participate in photographically documenting the site. The site was home to E.B. Eddy from the end of the 19th century to late in the 20th century. It was taken over by Domtar at that time who actively operated it until 10 or 12 years ago. It has now been acquired by a developer who will tear some of the old buildings down and replace them with condos and a more people oriented modern living site. The site crosses the Ottawa River on the provincial border between Ontario and Quebec. Ottawa is on the Ontario side and Gatineau is on the Quebec side.
I took quite a few window shots because they were few and far between. Many buildings had no windows, or the windows were covered over or too dirty to see through. After spending many cold dismal winters days at the site last winter, (sometimes in very dark areas), I was overjoyed to see the spring sun shining through in some spots.
The Chilehaus (Chile House) with its 2.800 windows is a ten-story office building and was one of the first "high rise buildings" in Hamburg, Germany. It is located in the Kontorhausviertel and is an exceptional example of the 1920s Brick Expressionism style of architecture.
It was designed by the architect Fritz Höger and built between 1922 and 1924.
It was commissioned by the shipping magnate Henry B. Sloman, who made his fortune trading saltpeter from Chile, hence the name Chile House. The cost of construction is difficult to determine, as the Chile House was built during the period of hyperinflation that struck Germany during the early 1920s, but is estimated to have been more than 10 million reichsmark.
