I liked the architecture. I don't know much about the topic, bur some basic themes lept out at me. Pillars are popular, whether they are real or "bump outs" to give the impression of pillars from a distance.
Columbus has a diamond exchange. Very cool. I wonder if some of the many men walking around in suits had diamonds in their pockets.
From a distance, Eric and I saw a "Ghost Buster Building."
The LeVeque Tower is a beautiful example of Art Deco with
step backs and a tower. Up close, the building is
constructed with light tan stone. From a distance, it looks
white, possibly marble.
I liked the curved angle of the building on the left. The kink of tiered effect of the shorter building in the front made me think of a cake.
Columbus City Hall. This is a side entrance.
This is the front of City Hall with a massive statue of Christopher Columbus.
I'm very impressed with the ornate doorways.
This pic shows the hold out to real estate development. Look at how short the brick building is. It's just a few rooms deep and it stands in the middle of an area with government buildings and looming bank building towers.

Thanks Alex. We saw the Motorcycle Hall of Fame on the list of museums. We are now @ Columbus Museum of Art checking out glass sculpture.
Ah, nice.
What's the ETA on repair of the rig?
The part was due in at 10:30 am. We're waiting for the work to be done and hope to get a call by 2 pm. Our guesstimate was right and we hit the road at 3:20 pm.
Eric and I will be returning to Columbus. I look forward to touring the the Motorcycle Hall of Fame.
