RANDON ARCHITECTURE POST
this is out of order, but i will fix that eventually. an old turn of 1900 manufacturing complex is being torn down near the farmer's market i go to. i have been trying to take pics of it as it disappears. i took this shot a week ago or so. gotta find the previous pics. today i went to the FM and did my once around the plant. the oldest part still stands of the PRESSED STEEL TANK CO., i was more adventurous today. i drove into the area by the freed smoke stack to take better pictures of it. have to download the pics. also picked up a little piece of brick or something. did i say i am fascinated by old manufacturing buildings?
in art school design history we were taught about different brick patterns. can't remember what it was called, but i notice the different patterns in old brickwork. shame. damned shame. condos/apartments are being built nearby. i guess it will be more of that. oh, no sold fashioned peas. just sugar snap. but found some saller kohlrabi and strawberries. had to get some frozen custard!
