What we don't love about our city... Huge hotels springing up, in so many places. Just big, high buildings. Not in keeping with old architecture.
Oh I know... How can we expect today's builders to give us period architecture? But! Some have tried. A local builder, has put up a replacement building right on Broadway, which fits in with the old. It probably cost him more. But he is local! From a local family, which has a history of loving this city and working for its betterment. These new hotels are not being built by locals.
Pardon my mini rant...
~~~~~~~~~~
ADDITION: I'm having troubles, trying to leave comments in other's blogs. Bahhh humbug.

ANOTHER ADDITION: Apologies! I put this in Draft yesterday. And forgot to post it! Duhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh me! Sorry MB!!!
