STOPS ALONG THE WAY

SEEN ON A WALK (TWO PHOTOGRAPHS)

One of several entrances to The East Memorial Building, a federal government office building, with federal heritage status, in Ottawa, Canada. Its construction began in 1950, and it is an example of Classical-Moderne design.  Like many of the older federal buildings, it has a wonderful bas-relief over the doorway.

    I like the reliefs over the doors of these older buildings. Our newer government buildings are definitely more prosaic now. Great photo; thanks for sharing.

    Almost looks like a prison.

    Those interesting reliefs on older buildings is something really lacking in modern buildings!
