deconstruction (& not the postmodern kind)

[pipistrellafelix]

The construction next door has become more bearable--perhaps it really is quieter, or maybe I'm just used to it--or, more probably, it's gotten all interesting to watch. They're ripping down the building, & now it's to the point where we can see into the demolished building through all the holes. It's too late now for what I really wanted to do--go exploring in there & take pictures--but I can take photos from our balconies.

.....


A broad view from our living room balcony.




More close up on what used to be the second floor (is it still a second floor when it hasn't got a floor anymore?)


I really like this stairwell, aesthetically.


With the Paramount behind it...I'll bet they're loving all this construction around their theater.


A different view. I'm not sure why all the broken brick & weird lines are this interesting to me.




What it looks like out the window. Mm, a city view...


From Erin & my balcony, now--the light's shifted a lot.




& a close on that little stairway I like.


I went outside but I couldn't get close enough for the shots I really wanted. This is the only one that turned out.




Also, I really enjoy days off. I slept till noon, I cleaned my room a little, I did some homework that I'll be getting back to soon, I taught Nikki how to make curry. It was good.

You live downtown(ish)? Luckyyyy.

Yep, right by the Paramount (obviously). It's pretty cool.

I wants to visit!? You can come see my apartment-thingy when Zac and I have our house-warming.

Hey cool! I would love to see it.
You can come visit some time, of course...but it should probably be later when I am actually at home at a reasonable hour.

That's strangely beautiful.

But I like the smell of paint and gasoline, so my asthetics are a bit wonky.

No, I think so too..an urban sort of beautiful, but sure.
