My wife and I are in Boston for the Memorial Day holiday attending her close friend's wedding. It has been five years since our last visit and I forgot just how amazing this city's architecture is.
The Fairmont Copley Hotel is recognized as a Historic Hotel of America. Did you know - it's sister hotel is The Plaza in New York City. Both were designed by the architect Henry Janeway Hardenbergh.
I try to keep an eye out for interesting architectural details when I visit cities. These little details sometimes can be used in future projects.
This column is part of a bridge crossing in The Public Gardens. I like the shape of the dentil mould and the pyramid center panel on each side. Might make a nice island detail...
Beautiful tile inlay for a bathroom?
Arched paneling for an entranceway. This photo is from Peacock Alley in the Fairmont Copley Hotel.

Happy Memorial Day
