Buildings with Character

[dexdog]

The famous painting by Ed Hopper called "Nighthawks" would be a great basis for a Coen brothers movie. The building portrayed by Retro-Grouch in [NODE="376"]Hologon 16mm lens for the Contax G2.[/NODE] coulda worked in Raising Arizona, but only in glaring, over-exposed Arizona daylight.
The Nighthawks painting is in the Art Institute of Chicago, an interwebs search will reveal an image. I cannot post a link here, but it is easily found.

Interesting style! Those two above look like a blend of Art Deco with stucco and a Spanish tile roof!
