And now the end is near and so i face nanananana... Never did like that crappy song. But it's true nevertheless.

So apologies for the lack of postings over the last weeks. This is post number 380 something so I suppose one post every two days is not a bad average.

Anonymous 3: Once the weather improves I will try to get out walking around and take more pictures. If anyone knows any areas of the city that might be good to search for these kind of buildings let me know.
I would like to see it restored in the old way :(
Ourman, thanks for bringing us these pictures.
