In #Pasadena , #California there is this adorable little #ArtDeco substation. Right where Walnut Street splits off into a wye, with Foothill Blvd being the other stem of the wye. Right next to the Honda Dealer. 📸:me/10/2024

The phallic one is appropriate for having the last name of Bangs. The other one is awesome for obvious reasons.

Was just driving down the street yesterday in Boyle Heights, as one does, and drove by this lovely #ArtDeco building at 2619 E 8th Street. What a nice surprise !

1360 Montgomery St- #SanFrancisco• AKA the Malloch Building. Not the easiest building to get photos of since its 4 stories are nestled on a steep hillside. Sea views & the Coit Tower are just a brisk walk away. #ArtDeco #mallochbuilding 📸:me/02/07/2025 #TelegraphHill

Art Deco in the Chicago Area that I am aware of. I'm sure there's a lot more out there than this. Green Marker with Dot means I have seen it, personally..

Well well well, I guess I did get photos of the Medic Building in Chicago before they tore it down around 2017 @dmercer.bsky.social . It was a dreary April day, as you can tell. #Chicago #MedicBuilding #Demolished #2012Photo

It’s AOk, it’s not like you owe any of us anything, and I am eternally grateful for all the great architecture you bring into my life & look forward to more. I actually didn’t mind the sleuthing & was quite happy when I solved it.

Spring Stirring-Donal Hord. Displayed in La Jolla @ the Scripps Oceanographic Institute. After photographing Donal's exterior work, you learn you need to bring a soft cloth & water to clean dust & bird poop off if you want to create a quality exposure. #ArtDeco #DonalHord #LaJolla #SanDiegoCounty
