    Your willingness to track down the names of the vessels floating and otherwise is much appreciated. I also very much appreciate your listing the architect and year built of the buildings you photograph when the information is available. Thorough!

    • Glad to hear my pedantry is appreciated! Actually finding all this stuff out afterwards seems like an addition voyage of discovery after the walk when my response is more on an emotional level. I trained as an architect so that’s an interest close to my heart and I like the give them credit.

Whether you have comments on the photos, some knowledge or a personal story on this area you’d like to share, or you’ve spotted a typo or error, I’d love to hear your thoughts.
