Uptown

I snapped this from a bus as I was riding through
Harlem early one morning.  This building has
lost some of its original architectural details
(the boarded-up rectangular window tops used to
be filled with stained glass), but I love the
little terrace and the turret.  Wouldn't it be nice
to see it brought back to its former glory?

[It's Ruby Tuesday. To see more, go here.
And to see more of Our World, go here.]

  7. It is beautiful and I would love to explore the interior. There are so many buildings which we could not afford to build today, nor could we find the skilled craftsmen to create, that are falling into ruin.

    Great blue-sky shot!
