As compared to the numerous gray tiles and tan tiles, the brown tiles have been applied with a stinginess that is clearly intentional, which imparts to them an idea of scarcity-driven preciousness: The brown ones are the "jewels" of the arrangement. It is inspiring.

According to this, "the front door is framed by a pedimented Tuscan Doric tabernacle." Would you have been able to figure that out just from looking at the building? Or do you need somebody to tell you what it is?

Also when they say "tabernacle" they mean "aedicula." Also I think when they say "Tuscan Doric" they mean "Tuscan."

Also the bottom is surfaced in ashlar of famous Bedford limestone from dreadful Indiana.

On the Google website I read a review that said: "They sale broken equipment for really expensive prices" [sic]. That sounds awful!

Do you prefer the semicircular arches (3rd floor) or the segmental arches (2nd floor).

"Draper's Block," the building is called. Apparently the gabled parapet at the top is not original to the building!! And the third floor was designed to be a Masonic temple!! Scary!

1873 is famous for the Panic of 1873; the 1873 World's Fair in the city of Vienna, Austria-Hungary; and The Tempest by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

I assume this Vac-Shack is not affiliated with the basement storage room of "Vac Shack Vacuums" in suburban Grand Rapids where the accused Michigan governor kidnapping plotters (and an FBI informant) allegedly met to discuss their plans. Missouri is a long way away from Michigan!

Do you like italicized all caps.

My favorite vacuum cleaner brand name is Filter Queen.

Holy shit the building (one of the "Helm-Cheever Buildings") was built in 1865 or earlier.

Broadway Theatre District, Los Angeles, California

Eighth Avenue | West 42nd Street 29/047/2015 18h18
The corner of the 8th Ave and W 42nd St is close to Times Square and in the center of the Broadway District. At this corner the Westin, already a landmark.

Westin New York
Owned by Tishman Realty and Construction Company, the Westin in 2002 was the first "grand hotel" which opened in Manhattan since 1993. The construction of the hotel, in the central shopping area of Times Square, was overseen by the founders of architecture, the Peruvian Bernardo Fort-Brescia and his wife, the U.S. Laurindo Spear, professors in the School of Urban Design at Harvard.
The building had caused some controversy as many as bizarre or branded as "miamero" (term used in the U.S. to refer disparagingly to buildings in the city of Miami).
The complex comprises two buildings, one high (47 floors) and one low.Both relate to the hotel and its many facilities. The hotel has 863 rooms, 126 of which are suites.

The complex curtain wall of 10 colors based materialized in 8000 glass panels with so little repetition in color or form that the parts had to be labeled with a bar code at the factory to know where to place them in the work.
Each piece of giant puzzle has its own isolation and comes framed in a context of an extruded alloy containing mainly aluminum.
The curtain wall that covers the 47 floors of the building changes colors throughout the day as they are reflected in the sky, the sun and nuves. Changing this picture is animated by a stroke curved white vertical layout that seems to brush emphasizing the idea that the facade of the building is actually a box. The trace of white lights from dusk until midnight marking the presence of the building in the chaos of the lights of Midtown Manhattan as close to Times Square.
By building more and more under asymmetric opted for a curtain wall made from aluminum panels are tinted. The complexity of the assembly due to the low repetition was the same as with the glass panels as it proceeded the same way.
