Couple of new shots...














I found this building down in Binghamton the other day. As a Mason, I've recently been learning about styles of Architecture, and I'm honestly not sure What this one is, but I found it very attractive visually. There is just So much stuff going on with all of those columns and such. It looks like a dentist built it years ago, and it is one of the key buildings in downtown Binghamton. I love the colors and the busy nature of the building. It is to my eye, akin to the 'painted lady' Victorian houses of old.






Earlier the same day I happened upon a Hysterical Marker:









and the Tower for which it was placed, which was built to test telegraph transmission to Moving railway trains on the Lackawanna Railway. Binghamton has a huge railway presence to this day. Numerous low overpasses around down. I used to manage a trucking fleet which delivered to the area, and I had several trucks damage trailers under those rail bridges. Much to my drivers' and my chagrine.
