A huge congratulations to @philipthalis on his well-deserved award.
Philip is undeniably both one of Australia's most respected architects and a tireless advocate for good urban design.
More importantly, he's not afraid to speak up publicly against bad state government planning decisions, as he did with Barangaroo, even when there's a personal cost.
Photos around a few areas close to Downtown Midland, MI: Dow East End Building, a mural underneath a bridge, right behind that mural is a view of a river that runs underneath that same bridge, a bird mural on the side of a building, flowers, and a residential building. Shot in June 2023.
#FairwayGorgePaddlingClub is located in the curved building you see, in this looking up from ground photo. I was waiting for Mom to bring car from parking lot. I loved how beautiful the skies looked & took 2 photos, while I was waiting. One is of the skies & buildings. Another of my pants & sneakers.
A pic I took of the Jacksonville, FL skyline on an old digital camera back in December 2011. I revisited this photo several years later and tried to go with a “cinematic” look.
