Since many of you here are interested in home repair and buildings in

first floor is cast iron.

I'm very interested in this stuff. I've seen a lot of "cast iron
buildings in SoHo in NYC, and it's good to see the range of them.

Thanks.

The northeast is a very interesting place to live. That's why I tried
not to move too far away (Baltiomre.)

I went to New Haven today to buy a new Borsolino cap. I'm not sure of the
age of the building, but the business has been here since 1908. The bottom
photo shows the cast iron columns and header trim. Some building used cast
iron for structural support also.
