There's Roxie's courthouse, it looks like Big Ben. It's cool, it looks gothic to me.

I love old architecture. They sure do not make them like this anymore.I just wish that cities would keep old buildings and repair them instead of tearing them down for new office buildings.

Me too. It's crazy. Tearing down our history to make convienince stores.

DD, you would probably enjoy reading James Howard Kuntsler. You can catch him at clusterfucknation.com. Go to the library and pick up World Made by Hand

You inspired me and I posted some some old buildings from my childhood.

Pat, you inspire me. If I take some of your blog ideas and use them, please be flattered.

I've become obsessed with Googie.

hey! This looks awesome on here! Thanks for sharing this. Yours was really different and looked like an old southern mansion to me. Very regal, and aristocratic. This is Big Bens baby. We love it .
