Looking down on Deco
Don't you just love those elegant curved walls and small window panes of the 1930's office block on the right? Art Deco we salute you! Down near Angel Meadow.
This is so much better than the all glass towers we are seeing now. I think the buildings (and windows) stand out more in this style. But then, everything stands out more in art deco, no?
I like the the old fashion way doing windows rather than the new way of buildings covered entirely in glass.
ReplyDeleteI like this view. Where were you?
ReplyDeleteI definitely do Chrissy, ArtDeco is one of my fav architectural styles..

ReplyDeleteHi Chrissy! Love the photo! Such great architecture. Brings back fond memories of when we visited and our walk around Manchester!

ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite eras, architecturally! Some things really need a comeback...like this:)
