I liked the look with the small grass lawns out front. Not a fan of concrete.

AS PROMISED....A NEW POST WITH MORE SOUTHOLD.

FIRST THE LIBRARY COVERED WITH IVY 1940'S:


TOUGH TO GET THE SAME EXACT DUE TO NEWER BUILDINGS TO THE LEFT:



AND THE SOUTHOLD SAVINGS BANK ALSO MOSTLY COVERED WITH IVY 1950'S:


I THINK IT MIGHT BE A CAPITOL ONE BANK NOW SOME 50+ YEARS LATER WITH AN ADDITION AS WELL:


NOTICE THE TOLERANCE FOR THE IVY?

[Curly]

I always liked the look of the ivy growing on buildings but it is bad for the masonry. Really beats up the exteriors. Nice stuff DOC.

[DOC]

TO ME, THE LIBRARY LOOKS MORE LIKE A PRISON (NOW). SHOULD HAVE LEFT THE IVY! LOL!

NEW ADDITIONS FOR SOUTHOLD...

THEN: 1909.


NOW: 2009.
