Here are two architectural survivals, All Saints Episcopal Church, built in 1885-6, which my family attended, and the Baker Hotel, built in 1927 and now an abandoned shell. The hotel was actually closed by the time I graduated, enjoyed a brief revival, and is now as you see it. FZ1000, mono conversions in Topaz BW Effects:
