Oh dopey me. I don't know why I tagged yesterday's photo FensterFreitag because it clearly wasn't Friday and there were no Fensters. Well what can I say? Even light sabers, when they age, get less and less sharp.
Anyway, here is a picture of my favorite building in all of San Francisco: the 190-foot tall concrete grain silos on Pier 90. Built around 1920, the silos are now abandoned. Having ceased operations following the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake, they are sadly are slated for demolition, date to be determined.
Honestly, I will miss this giant behemoth on the waterfront. Massive buildings thrill me... and, photographically speaking, asphalt and concrete are the meat and potatoes of urban photography while trees and bushes are just vegetables, side dishes, readily pushed aside. You may quote me on that
Happy Monday, everyone. It is raining here in San Francisco.

@BobHorowitz Happy Monday! Yeah, so much of this old industrial stuff is going away down there. Or it was starting to when I left.
I feel a culture needs ruins to remind itself of what was.

Bodacious behemoth, Bob. There are some big old grain silos not far from here that I tried to render with pastels about 20 years ago, before I had a camera. I have to go see if they're still there. They were showing their age back then, as well.

@BobHorowitz Yeah, that C&H factory you see from the train. It’s pretty neat. All the bees.

@BobHorowitz The “… vegetables, side dishes, …" bit got a “YEAH!" from one of my brothers.
