A Touch of Glass

Glass Wall

I love this building. I don't know the name of it and I don't know when it was built exactly

though

I believe it was put there in the 1980's.

I believe it's purpose lyes within the medical field.

This

building is a work of art. It stands three stories high and it's a 10 minute walk from my

apartment.

I love this design obviously because of it's bold glass tile which stretches from the

ground to the

roof top.

Although it wouldn't look that dramatic without that square wall with that one window

engraved in it.

The entry doors are all

glass

and curvaceous just like the wall of glass.

Looking UP

As I got closer to this glorious glass wall I began to really appreciate the beauty of the

design and workmanship. Yet I had to wonder how will it fair with an earthquake. This is

one of the reasons why I took these photos for just in case one day it came tumbling down.

Then I thought wait we've had many earthquakes since the 1980s and it's still standing.

On the 4th of April 2010 we had that 7.1 quake and it lasted almost 20 seconds and look

She's still standing!

Standing TALL

This view depicts that curve and it's futuristic design. Sitting right between homes that were

built in the 1940's. A future location for me to shoot at that's for sure!

A Glass of Water

The closer you get to this wall the better it looks. You can tell that there was a lot of thought

put into this design. And who ever it was that designed this amazing work of architectural

art has a lot of style, class and a real appreciation and love for glass wall tiles.

I applaud you who ever you are!
