thanks so much. we have a number of these type walls downtown with old windows and doors filled in. this particular one is now gone - new construction on the site i was standing on has covered it up.

so glad you like it. we have a few of these type walls around town. i've never figured out how they came to be, but sadly this one has been torn down just the other day.

The photographic possibilities of brick are limitless. You have created a fascinating record of this building showing the original material along with how it has suffered from water damage, and the unsympathetic (but beautifully contrasting) infilling. It is imposing and stark.

Thanks so much. I love all sorts of old walls. We've had a few of these type walls around downtown, I think all of them are now gone.

There is quite a story here.

Indeed. We have a number of buildings like this 'ghost doors' people call them here. I do not understand them - but instead just enjoy them.
