Nice Providence shots again! I really would like to get down there someday. From what I understand it's not too far away.

I'm typing with a hangover right now. I was in Providence last night for some of the March Madness (they're hosting a bunch of the games) and it's like being in the French Quarter. People are roaming the streets with beers and bars are hosting block parties. If you can get to Providence this weekend, you're going to have a good time (just don't expect a hotel room).

 

[Boston02124]

which would you like to see next? Easton or Newport?

 

[vanshnookenraggen]

Um.. Easton. I expect amazing buildings in Newport, but that Easton shot gets my curiosity up.

 

[Ron Newman]

Ditto. Easton is unfamiliar to me, while there are thousands of photos of Newport all over the web.

 

[Boston02124]

and yet again I'm in Providence!

some day I need to walk around this city and take some real pixs!

 

[Boston02124]

Watertown Ma. one side

other side

2 other recent additions to the sq.

did'nt get a good pix but this was about it,unsure what this is?

 

[Ron Newman]

I'm not too fond of those new apartment towers in Providence. They look like they belong in Charles River Park. Maybe they look better in real life than in these photos?

 

[Lrfox]

^Not really. The architecture is sort of cheap looking and they don't do much with the street around them (Exchange) which actually has a large surface lot (at a lower grade) across the street. Not wonderful.

The towers are sort of unique in that they were designed to align with the large, round basin of the Waterplace park/riverwalk. They are VERY cool from that perspective as they sit right on the walkway/ stage area there. Great for the Waterfires.

*edit*

Is that a Wild Willy's in Watertown? Yuck. That's one of the most gawdawful burger places I've ever been in my life. I don't know how they survive.

Took an impromptu roadtrip out to Chicago, many more pictures await. Here's some Hartford. Let's just say that being the passenger while stuck in traffic = major luckout picture-wise!

 

[Patrick]

Nice. On a road trip to Long Island, I had the same good luck, but unfortunately the camera wasn't as good as I would have liked, and most if not all of the pictures came out blurry due to the time of day. Can't wait for the rest!

 

[Boston02124]

funny I was in Hartford/Waterbury yesterday and took almost the excat same pixs!

Waterbury Conn.

dam rain!

Beacon Falls Conn.

my destination!

that was about it!

Beacon Falls again, Waterbury again

that clock tower was tall,I was on a bridge or high overpass?

Timex musuem

took this from far away unsure what city,but nice Gothic skyline!

back thru Hartford and the same pixs DHZ22 took!

the sky was cool despite the rain

see yah later Hartford

back home!

 

[Patrick]

awesome, thanks!

Waterbury is an interesting city. Seems underrated, but maybe that's just because I've only ever seen it from the highway and the highway cuts straight through downtown (must have been pretty devastating for downtown when it happened).

 

[FLAindy]

Agreed. Waterbury is one of the more interesting cities in CT. The architecture is more interesting (readld) than most of the suburbs around Hartford.

 

[Boston02124]

took these awhile ago! Easton Mass.

downtown

old farm

[Ron Newman]

What college is in that last set of photos?
