Thread: Beautiful buildings

Im afraid that 100 years from now, the building made now wont be standing but the 200 year old building will still be standing tall. Its really ashame. Nice pics. Thanks for sharing.

Neither do I and I hope so. They're are built because they're needed right now as fast as possible. Not because of a certain history or occasion like the old ones. I've built some of the new ones as well, it's boring but you can earn good money. Thank good money is not everything, so I stopped that again.

What incredible old buildings...thanks for posting these pictures. I always prefer the restored brick buildings and warehouses to the new construction. The city's latest restoration effort is the old brick Wonder Bread factory.

Another great example is the first Washington Water Power power generation facility on the river. It was designed by Kirtland Cutter. You can see some pictures showing the original look here (just today, I learned that the steel domes on each corner were donated to the war effort in the '40s):

A nice building, I hope to add to this thread when I get out and about with my camera.

Just amazing buildings and craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing

Very nice but let's be honest. How much restoration has been done on those buildings?
