Well, i think it's a pride thing. Its a mine, true. It's gonna be a bit dirty, true. But little accents like this really showed off the money they made.

Way back in the late 1800's and through to the mid 1900's coal was a very important commodity especially for travel. I mean the total tonage required for the Titanic to cross the Atlantic was incredible! The world revolved around coal, that is until gasoline and airplanes took over.

It's weird, i'm an interior designer with a concentration in Kitchen and bath cabinetry. More and more people are demolishing the old victorian houses and then putting new modern houses in...yet they get cabinets that look like they've been through the war for that authentic look! LOL!

That's always my favorite part, when there's still paperwork in the old buildings. It reminds you that the place was a part of someone's life and the building lived through the lives of those who worked and lived there. People laughed in the halls, they ate lunch together in the cafeteria, that human element only adds to the beauty of these places.

Someone looked at this building and was proud.
