How in the world did you find a location in Baltimore that was free of graffiti and vandalism (as far as I can see?) Most of that city is covered in it. (I'm originally from the Baltimore area). It must have taken a lot of "creativity" to get in that place. I sure do appreciate your efforts. (-:

Is this Hansel and Gretel's cottage, or the home of the witch? (-: Very fairy-tale-like.

It would be interesting to see what the colors were like when this place was operated by the Germans. Maybe the black at that time created a lovely "pop" against the decor. They certainly didn't seem to skimp on beauty as far as the architecture. I'm sure it all fit together somehow.

Has anyone on here ever looked at recent pictures from Pripyat (site of the Chernobyl disaster)? Fascinating. I would love to see what Motts could create artistically with that place. Planned any trips to Russia, Motts? (-:
