On Sunday, my friend Dee and I wondered around downtown Glendale to take some pictures of a building. The building we needed to photograph was stunningly boring, but we found some other interesting buildings there. Here are a couple of photos. The entire set is here, on Flickr, but it's not terribly interesting.

A mural on California, corner with Brand.

This was also on California, across Brand from the building with the mural. This was the building Dee and I had come out to photograph. It's a historic building, but they renovated it in the worst possible way and it was so boring it almost gave me a stroke. They had these along the side of the building that broke up the coma-inducing monotony.

The Maryland Hotel. Rents by the month, by the week or by the day.

The lobby of the Maryland Hotel, photographed through the plate glass window. Frozen in time.

A random building off Brand. I think it was a bank building. I didn't mean to use soft focus here, but somehow it works. Next time I will try to use it on purpose.
