My first errand Friday was to drop off the car at Lowell’s for maintenance. That left me with plenty of time to explore downtown. One of my favorite things to do, after breakfast at Lexington Diner of course, is to wander the streets looking for just the right shot of downtown. Most of the time, though, the best image(s) aren’t of the idyllic cityscape, but in things rarely seen; angles, rooftops, juxtapositions of all manner of things. As I came near the corner of Mill and Second, just across from the Carnegie Center, I caught a glimpse of the First Presbyterian steeple. Do you prefer it in color or black and white? I’m going for the black and white myself, but I offer both for fun. In any case, either of these houses must be incredible places to call home. Old, steeped in a modicum of mystery, urban, and cool. I would love to know the history of either house.
