Buildings with Character

[Ambro51]

Well....the lens is from 1911, the camera designed in 1913, the church built in 1808 and all those graves are pre 1900......so Yes, in every way that photo is timeless. The white marble monument far left is the grave of Ironmaster Jesse Richards...the Patron and “Lord of the Manor” in the early 1800’s. A huge man tipped the scales at 300 and was very wealthy.

Before 1975, the location of a well-known French restaurant catering to the city's upper crust. Post-1975, it served as a warehouse. The building was demolished a few years ago to make place for an institute for the blind. Good karma.

The Palace of Fine Arts' central rotunda usually gets all the attention, but its surrounding colonnade has a lot of character, too.
