A quick one

Tasha's groomer arrives at nine this morning, and I have to walk her before that, so I don't have much time for posting. Of couse, Smart WCS would have prepared the post yesterday, but he was nowhere to be found.

The back, or eastern façade. of the D&H Building, Albany, NY, May 2016.

This is SUNY Plaza, the administrative headquarters of the State University of New York since 1978. It was completed in 1918 as the HQ for the Delaware & Hudson Railroad Company. To me, it will always be the D&H building.

  1. I’ll bet a lot of locals still call that the D&H Building, and many don’t even know why.

    I bet you're happy to get Tasha groomed. By now, she is all done :)

  3. We can't be smart everyday, can we? I hope Tasha enjoys her spa treatment.

  4. I smiled a bit as I saw the photo and thought this didn't look too French.

  5. Years ago, after college, went on a cross country bicycle ride, in Montreal, rode the train to nyc, and on the head end of the D and H train were some repainted ATSF ALCO diesel locomotives, with their blue headdress paint. Railfan heaven.

  6. Very attractive building. It looks similar to some of the architecture in Montreal and Quebec City.

  7. mitch, I'll bet you're right.

    judy, it's nice when her fur is untangled and trimmed. Her shaggy feet make her look like a Clydesdale. LOL
