I always fantasize about having a place with great architectural detail. I'm kind of drawn to old looking places. Places that tell stories of another time.

I SO agree about a place with great architecture features!

I don't know about other cities and areas but in Seattle and especially in West Seattle most of the buildings with great architectural designs have been ripped down and replaced with ugly glass and metal structures!

Surly this isn't what they are teaching these days in architecture classes..

I know right? It would be such a treasure if the old buildings were preserved. When I look at some of the glass and metal buildings i think welcome to your special cage, but hey the view is great. LOL
