Hotel - Bowling Green, Florida
4705 US17 - I believe this was constructed in the 20's and I'm sure it was quite the oasis for weary travelers in its day.

Edward R. Hills Residence - Oak Park, Illinois
313 Forest Avenue - In 1906 Frank Lloyd Wright remodeled this home to something resembling its current state. Since then it has been remodeled, mostly destroyed by fire, restored, remodeled and restored. I don't think I've ever read about a house that's gone back and forth so much between owners wanting to change it and ones wanting to restore it to its 1906 incarnation.

Eastern-Columbia Building - Los Angeles, California
849 South Broadway - One of my favorite buildings and one that I was very happy to see up close and personal and yet somehow I only took six pictures and one of them ended up blurry. The horror! This magnificent tuquoise terra cotta art deco gem was completed in 1930 and designed by Claud Beelman.

Rear of the central main entrance (blurry but still fantastic).
