    Not a bad point. The section facing Smith was a later addition and it doesn't seem to have the architectural merit of the original structure on Louisiana. I don't care what they do with the new wing, but it would be nice to save the old section.

    It's sad to hear the tattoo parlors and whatnot are gone, but implementing the ideas of a design "charette" from Gulf Coast Institute and Urban Land Institute would be putting a nail in the coffin of whatever character the intersection used to have.

    Saint James Place.

    True, although they have been making noises about moving to a new location for years now. They could find something cheaper and more convenient to transportation.
  5. Subdude
    Eh, they tried that before.

    Featuring Ireland! Good craic!

    There was a proposal a few years back that when the post office sold the property it should be purchased by the city for use as fair grounds. This would avoid fiascoes as when the International Festival moved to the Reliant parking lot, or even the problems having to close blocks of streets for various festivals.

    Note Liberty Hall topics combined.

    I could swear there's a topic about that here somewhere..

    I don't think a traditional Irish breakfast would have boxty, but there would certainly be black pudding. The less said about which the better, except perhaps to note that it constitutes suitable nutrition for vampires.

    I thought it was supposed to evoke a railroad station?

    The 1980 Celica! I would love to own an old Toyota from the 1970s or 1980s. Very nimble and well-made cars.

    Link?

    Short for "Panamerica". And the 1980 Celica was actually quite cool. At the time it looked like a car from the future.

    Looking like this you would think that they would WANT to be mistaken for another make. Here is BMW's entry in the sedan-that-looks-like-a-coupe sweepstakes. What do you think?

    Talk about damning with faint praise! To me the Panamera looks like a giant beached humpback whale.

    A really, really ugly Porsche - the new Panamera:

    Maybe they could resurrect and modify the design for the unbuilt Menil guest house by Legoretta that was planned to have been east of the museum. It would have made an interesting contrast.

    Oh my. The renderings early in this topic included a kind of visitors pavilion and giant globe at the base! Where'd they go? These things really do need observation platforms on top.

    Cheers!

    For us it was singing "Las Alamedas, we ate at Las Alamedas, Las Alamedas...." to the tune of "Guantanamera".

    Check out this topic.

    Looking forward to additional pictures. And I understand, urban exploration is a lot of fun!

    If they are in the midst of asbestos abatement are you really sure you want to be walking around there? It is a difficult process. I think you pretty much have to get rid of everything except the frame and floor slabs.

    Note new post with urban exploration pictures moved to Holiday Inn topic here.
