OK - so I had to have my fix. As many of you know, I thrive on detailed
artwork. Putting in every nut and bolt so to speak. So as I was looking
at a photo I took of the Powers Building in downtown Rochester I
wondered what it would have looked like in its' hey day from that
vantage point. So I did some research. it didn't take long. This is a
popular building and there are many pictures of it going back to the
late 1880s'. Using a photo from 1904 I did some reconstruction of the
details that are no longer there. It took a while but the end result
was wonderful(and painful to my fingers). There may be a detail or two
that I did incorrectly. But with this much on one page how can you
tell. LOL. Anyway here it is as it was and below is as it is today.
