Neon Face

I have no idea who this is, and the colors look very 90's, but it is interesting nonetheless. It is on a building in downtown St. Louis.

St. Louis Lion Building

This building apparently needs protection because it is plastered with lions. I like it and them!
It is right in downtown St. Louis.

Non-Architecture Structure

I have been to the D.C. area many times, but this is the first time I have been to this memorial. It is an appropriate Memorial Day post, even though it is a bit late.

D.C. Dome

I Like Circles...

therefore, I like this building.



This is in D.C. about one block from the mall. I didn't get closer than this, so I really don't know what the building is.

More Library of Congress Pictures

What can I say? It's an interesting building!

Exterior of the L.O.C.

The Library of Congress has some interesting elements on the exterior as well as the interior.

Library of Congress

Who would be interested in going to a place with the name, Library of Congress? I wasn't interested, but I got roped into it. Now I want to go spend some time researching there. It is a beautiful building. There are so many interesting resources and artifacts here, as well as books of course.

Ford's Theatre Interior

The newly renovated Ford's Theatre. We saw Civil War, the musical.



My partial view seat...behind a column, and the balcony overhang. I couldn't see the whole show.

President Lincoln's box

Wooden Window Elements

Wooden window elements and some roof accents on a building right by Ford's Theatre.

Ford's Theatre

Across the street from Ford's Theatre is the house where President Lincoln died. Architecturally unremarkable, but historically significant.


This is the new entryway to Ford's Theatre. It has just reopened after renovations.


Some exterior building details.

Look At Those Acanthus Leaves!

These acanthus leaves are definitely in the Roman style, but who would expect anything else from Washington D.C.?




These Corinthian Columns are on the pavilion in Arlington Cemetery. This structure is up by the tomb of the unknown soldier where the changing of the guard takes place.
