I guess I just like images with a lot of character in it. And this place has some character. It was one of the first buildings built in the are, its about 200 years old. It's quite worn out, with broken windows, crooked lamp posts and so on. It was actually just at the end of its life. It was torn down about 10 years after this picture taken, they replaced it with a fire pump station.
This place had all sorts of shades on each level, a variety of shutters and windows. I can only assume it had a number of colors as well. I made the building a red and pink theme. I was originally going to make the light parts tan, but that would have overwhelmed the piece.
