That's 425 Mass, not the Meridian.

Thanks Octavius!

John,

I bike by that old building every day on Kansas Ave, and though I knew that it sat right beside that new apartment building/Yes! Organic, I've never seen it from that perspective and so I've never noticed how stark the contrast is between the two buildings. Thanks!

"Octavius"/David. I didn't realize who you were until just now when I saw the link to your website. :)

Thanks Ryan! I bike by there on Kansas Ave all the time too, but never noticed it until I saw it all lit up in the sun, when I was passing by at an unusual time.

Excellent Juxtaposition John. Mind if I call you that? Best flicker pool photo I've ever seen.
