I love the old interesting stuff. There was a LOT to look at in San Fran when I was there earlier this year. Houston, OTO, have very little interesting architecture. There is some, but most of it isn't even 100 years old yet

This is one of my favorites. If you are close enough to the top, you can see that there's a bunch of red and blue in the embellishments at the top. Inside is cool too.



Entrance of one of the Houston Chase branches.



and another of my favorites, the Bank of America building. The entire outside of the building is red granite. Even the sidewalks around the block are red granite.


The whole thing, even the high rise portion is topped with the "spires"
