UNION PARK ON A SULTRY DAY
********************************
-- There are three images here
-- (Not my normal)
-- But I’m trying to illustrate a point here.
-- The first image is an oblique image of some wonderful old houses on Crossway Street in Norwich
-- Backed up by an unfeeling pile of brick on Broadway.
-- It ruins my image, it depresses the neighbor.
-- What did the Architect think he was really doing.??
-- Did he think that this flaw would ad interest to the model like a gap in its teeth.
-- Not in my opinion...
-- Exhibit “B” is a picture of this Pile of Bricks at #177
-- And next to it is Exhibit “C” to the south of it trying, nobly, to keep its head up.
-- I hope #176 gets a reduced tax rate for having had its property devalued by its neighbor.
-- Unfortunately, so many architects and builders think only of themselves and so often forget that a building has a responsibility to its neighborhood not just to the bank.
-- OK end of rant, for today
-- But don’t think it’s not on my mind every day…
