  4. Interesting shot, Magiceye! It could probably be replicated all over the world, although construction has certainly slowed down in the States...

  6. ta ville bouge, elle est en pleine mutation, cela veut souvent dire que les affaires vont mieux
    your city moves, it is in full mutation, it often means that business goes better

  11. I do hope they keep the old coz it gives the place so much more character. But yeah, they probably will need to restore it. And soon, I hope. :-)

  15. Wow. Talk about needing a power wash! Those old buildings in foreground could be rehabilitated if somebody was wiling to make the investment. They're much more interesting than the newer models. Maybe somebody will see that before they're demolished and replaced by more concrete and steel towers. I hope so.

    Great shot!

  16. I wonder if 50 years from now they will be weeping over the heritage that was lost with all these impersonal high rise buildings.
