Houses - Kissimmee, Florida

Orange Boulevard and Philip Street - A few houses with concrete block screens.


These house in these first two pics is circa 1961.


The yellow house is circa 1965.

This one is circa 1957.  If I had to guess I would say that this garage was originally a carport.

Drake Hotel - Miami Beach, Florida

1460 Ocean Drive - Art deco circa 1937.  It's sugary sweet and brings a smile to your face.

Los Angeles Times - Los Angeles, California

202 West First Street - Completed in 1935, the LA Times building was designed by Gordon B. Kaufmann.  These are mostly detail shots of reliefs and such.  This is another building which I wish that I would have gone inside.  I really need do better at getting inside buildings as I've missed lots of great stuff by just walking by outside.





I love these little reliefs.  I'm not sure what they all are as the flash obscured them.  The ones I can read are:  Aeronatics, Society, Art, Radio, Bridge, Literature, Real Estate, Oil and Sports.

Commercial Building - Columbus, Ohio

535 East Broad Street - So many things about this building intrigued me.  I believe it was vacant at the time I took these pictures back in 2009.  Screens, door handles, giant windows, interesting patterned tile, it just all works for me.
