35 Treasury Street - I only had a few hours the day I was in St. Augustine in February of 2008. I had not been there previously and had not done any research on what I should see (I knew about the fort but didn't make it there) so I wandered around random streets. After researching after my visit I found that I had somehow managed to hit many of the important buildings. Unfortunately I only took one picture of this building. For a detailed history of the church visit their site at http://www.thefirstparish.org/history.html.

Boscoso Italian Restaurant - Palm Springs, California
707 North Palm Canyon Drive - A simple little mid-century building, the most interesting feature are the screens covering the windows and reflected above the awning. We had dinner here one night and it was quite good. The interior featured some fun modern accents as well.

Macy's - Columbus, Ohio
This former Macy's from 1968 is at Eastland Mall. The two distinquishing features of this store are the mod canopies and the great blue glazed tile that covers the building. This mall also featured a Lazarus department store. When all of the Lazarus stores were changed to Macy's, the chain closed this location to use the newer structure that previously housed Lazarus. I'm sure it's only a matter of time this older store gets demolished.
