Beautiful Buildings Downtown

 



To the left is the Suntrust Bank Building, left is our Chamber of Commerce. it looks like a grand building 

and it is, but is is a giant parking lot, disguised as a beautiful building. The Chamber of commerce is the small glass office you see. They built a Marriot downtown, with zero parking. that is what this is.
Great Idea!

this is what Big Boy saw when he watched me on his next to last ride, in this photo below. We drove him to downtown Oct 7th so Mama could show you how pretty the chamber of commerce is. 2 days later he was gone

    So sad. The buildings look modern and pretty. Looks like the garage is bigger then the office!

    I never would have guessed that was a parking garage. Pretty fancy.

    Hello,

    They were able to disguise the parking lot, it looks better than some I have seen. I look for the green, like the pretty palm trees. Love that Big Boy photo. HUGS, have a happy day!

    Oh, Sandra, you know how much I love architecture, and the bank building was the one that caught my eye - but I do love the slightly 30's retro feel of the CoC/car park concept... and then my eyes started to leak at the shot of BB sharing the view with you... YAM xx

    My heart! Just imagine all the beautiful vistas Big's enjoying at the Rainbow Bridge.

    Clever building design. But I'm scratching my head over someone building a hotel with zero parking. I know, it's done in many cities, but at what an inconvenience (and extra cost).

    I like the idea of disguising the parking garage to look like a beautiful building.

    Ah..your precious BB got so many beautiful sights in his last days.
    Can you imagine what he is really seeing now??
    I do like the retro garage. It's better than a huge ugly thing blocking the view.
    Hard to believe a big hotel with no parking.
