I love these!
The tower on that fire station... I know why it's that tall, but it's so out of proportion! Not aesthetic at all!
The street scenes are so full of life...
And I love the colors in your sunset pic...
Thanks for sharing!
:hi:

Ironically, that fire station nearly burned down in 1972.

I'm glad they were able to stop it!

I think one of the purposes of the tall tower was to dry out hoses after use, so that may be the source of the name. :shrug:

7. Thanks. It was a close call with that one. |

You'd be shocked how few people jaywalk here. Drivers get all discombobulated when they see someone standing in the middle of the street, especially someone with a camera.

8. I can visualize you standing in the middle of the street in photo one, which is |
|
a telling study of that dangerous traffic hour, if you don't turn your lights on at the right time. I like to study all your city photos, so much going on. That possible pool shark's car with the rackemup license plate is a great catch. I find the fire "hose" station fascinating as well. A great look at parts of your city.
