Neat old building.
A beautiful old building. They made much more of an effort to build in those days. Then again I like modern buildings too with their big expanse of glass,which are much more open and light.
Great shot and I like the postwork very much Richard! Hope you are feeling better!
Wow! What a gorgeous shot! I love the richness of your colors.

Stunning building..And it was even robbed haha...damn.. I bet the neighbour buildings which were once there, was fantastic too.
