Wednesday, on a recently rare sunny, blue skied day, I took these pictures in downtown Binghamton, to show both the sky and some of our local downtown buildings.
A silhouette of the Broome County Courthouse, built in 1897.
A noontime picture of a historic church, the United Presbyterian Church on Chenango Street (if you saw my Thursday Tree Love post, the Korean Dogwood is in this church's courtyard).
Finally, from the church courtyard, a picture along Chenango Street. The tall building in the center of the photo is the historic Press building, once where our daily newspaper was produced, and now student housing called The Printing House. Also on this block is the historic Stone Opera House, which, alas, may never be restored.

ReplyDeleteI was looking forward to the explanation why it's bingo. (I've more often seen different approbations.)

ReplyDeleteLove these sky watch pictures. And I never knew Binghamton had the nickname Bingo.
ReplyDeleteI do love your very blue and beautiful skies and appreciate the back story on some of the buildings.
ReplyDeleteKudos to you for carrying for your brother. We have a 19 year old son with Aspergers and the jury is still out on whether he will ever be able to live independently or not.
Lovely skies!
