Eric & I drove into Gulfport to
sample Chandeleur Island
We're early. Let's take a walk and I'll take pictures of historic buildings.
In 2007 I developed an interest in architecture while in Buffalo, New York for a Library Conference. I often share photos of buildings in cities and towns Eric and I visit.
I love the cornice work & the
decorating the second floor
windows.
Must investigate...
The Horne/Trustmark Building
has Art Deco features.
A "Ghost Sign," the faded
remnant of a bygone
business ad.
Hewes Brothers
Clothing Shoes Hats
The Anderson Building
now houses law offices.
Eric stops in a shady
spot to check his
phone.
City Hall was built in
the 1840s.
Gulfport Art Galleria of
Fine Arts now occupies
the Carnegie Library.
Steel Industrialist Andrew Carnegie provided funding for public libraries across the country to provide resources for Americans educate themselves.
I like the tiled roof.
Early 20th century architectue
has lots of detail & looks
substantial.
This style of architecture stands in stark contrast with ethereal looking glass faced buildings in Dallas, Texas.
easy to find.
Albuquerque wasn't
as well advertised.
Gulf & Ship RR Offices
Murky Waters BBQ issued a
challenge we can not
refuse....
Roses Are Red
Our Burnt Ends Are
LIMITED
So Come Inside
Don't Be So
TIMID
Bartending is the only accredited
gaming & bartending school in
the US.
Eric and I are thirsty after our walk. Let's return to Chandeleur Island Brewing Company to sample their brews.
