For Wall Wednesday. Taken in Worcester, Massachusetts, USA. This building was built in 1929 and has some historic significance, but I could not find any information. It is listed in the National Registry of Historic Places, but the records for Massachusetts are not yet available online. The local preservation organization has commended the owners for their efforts at maintaining the building. It is now an apartment building. I like the facade details and the symmetry.

Not knowing how much time I would have with the train here, my goal was to get as many shots as I could get from as many different vantage points as I could. I wanted a wider shot than I had gotten previously, in order to incorporate the old, out-of-service road bridge adjacent to the rail bridge. The only way to accomplish that was to walk out into the cornfield. Normally, by this date in August, the corn would have been way above my head, but due to the extremely wet spring in the Midwest in 2019, where most fields did not get planted until June, so I was able to get out into the field a little for something different. A few other photographers opted to follow suit.

This old barn is part of the Twin Lakes Historic District in Twin Lakes, Colorado. The pond in the foreground is frozen over and all is very quiet.
"Located next to Colorado's two largest glacial lakes, the Twin Lakes Village began as a stop en-route between the mining districts of Leadville and Aspen. In the late 1880s, however, mining magnate, James V. Dexter, built the nearby Interlaken Resort, a 100-acre complex featuring a dance pavilion, stables and servants' quarters. Soon after, the area became a haven for wealthy tourists who boated in the summer and skied in the winter. It remained popular until the 1950s, when enlargement of the lakes cut off access to the resort.
Today, Twin Lakes Village as well as Interlaken Resort, have been carefully preserved for visitors." (www.fs.usda.gov/recarea/psicc/recarea/?recid=12537)
"The 2006 reinstallation in the Museum’s Visitors Pavilion adheres to the guidelines of the International Congress of Architects and Technicians of Historic Monuments in the Venice Charter for the Conservation and Restoration of Monuments and Sites: “the aim is to preserve and reveal the aesthetic and historic value – based on respect for original material and authentic documents. It must stop at the point where conjecture begins ... any extra work which is indispensable must be distinct from the architectural composition and must bear a contemporary stamp.” Hence, the structure that envelops the 18th-century artifact, along with the auditorium seating and ambient lighting, are all distinctly of the 21st century."
Ended up in the nice little town of Galena, IL today after hearing about this gem leading a westbound empty grain as Kansas City Southern 4791 goes by the historic depot.Only bad thing the clouds rolled in five minutes before it's arrival.
