Walking Day 1

The Walk Back

This also marks the point where I turned around and headed back to the hotel.

Building with more facade than building! (Wasn't obvious what the building was used for)

A mock front on that building. It looks quite impressive from the front, but side on, the illusion suffers from reality.

Trinity Church, Copley Square

Quite an interesting building! Consecrated in 1877, it was designed by Henry Hobson Richardson (1838 - 1886) in the Richardson Romanesque style (named after the architect). He solved the problem of building on landfill (which this whole area is) by driving wooden piles into the ground.

Old Trinity Church, Boston MA reflected in John Hnacock Tower

The church is reflected in the glass of the Hancock tower.

The eastern end of I-90, and strange directions (New York is SOUTH!)

A sight which Seattlites don't see. For us, I-90 only goes east.
