Wow what a great way to begin this one Motts! You know I love your IR work.... okay, settling in now for the ride! :-)

Stormy, if you look at the corners at the same level as the clock faces you can see the gargoyles sticking out from the tower.

Oh wow, that's an incredible picture Motts.

I love up up up shots!

The clock looks so tiny compared to the tower.

Looks like an old postcard.

Wall paper! ;)

Or perhaps the building is growing a little stubble. Very nice shot.

Though I'm sure the ones in the basement won't survive 8-)

Gorgeous! Just absolutely gorgeous

loving the levels in this one motts. I agree with Nathan you really can imagine all the people working and staying in these places and the beauty they held when they were once in perfect condition. They dont make these type of beautiful buildings much anymore tis a shame

i love this i love the staircase on the right B-E-A-utiful shot Motts, i love these English ones.

Ghosts from yesteryear....
I love imagining all the stories that took place in these old abandoned buildings...that's why this site is such fun. You can imagine things the way they were. Imagine the people that lived/worked within the walls of all these old buildings. People that are gone forever, their stories forgotten.

It's wonderful they're going to rennovate the building rather than just knock it over and build another...

You've got to remember, what we would consider beutiful architecture nowadays was taken for granted back in the day. That was just the way you put buldings together. No one would have thought anything of it. I think most people that lived and breathed in the days when that sort of architecture was considered "plain" would be horrified by the boxes we work in nowadays.
