A very interesting architectural style. I'm not so good with American history. Is this a railway depot? Fabulous photo, Richard.

what a spacious, empty and clean photo of this glorious old depot. I believe it's a museum now. Do you know the architect, H.H. Richardson? If not, he perfected this style---this depot was done under his influence---consisting of wonderful rusticated stone, and those beautiful earth-red "trims" (of arches, around the windows, and under eaves, roofs, etc). His influence runs from Massachusetts to the West Coast. It's a lovely old, regal, yet warm building...and you caught it from wayyyy down the plaza, with no one there (how do you DO that! the sun is low, but it doesn't look like 'dawn' low: you know just when to shoot to get your road and city shots with absolutely no one in them, and it showcases the buildings and scenery so clearly). And the long sweeping plaza makes such a pleasing space, leading to that grand old station. The lone table is a fine inclusion too, sitting there like a sculpture. I love this shot, Richard.
(Richardson's style was called "Richardsonian Romanesque," after the Romanesque/rounded arches from medieval Romanesque. That, in turn, was based on Roman style ((from Rome)). If you already know this, you can delete this paragraph and ask for your money back, lol...but his style is a wholly american, earthen version of the Romanesque. And it's wonderfully heavy and rustic..)
