A triptych of buildings in Wythenshawe, Manchester, 2024

A view of three modern office buildings with rectangular windows and concrete exteriors under a partly cloudy sky. The glass windows reflect the blue sky and clouds. A tree branch enters the frame from the right side.

A narrow, barred window set in a textured concrete wall with vertical lines. The window has a metal grille and wire mesh, and is bordered by two wider windows with similar grilles. Fallen leaves and grass are visible at the base along the concrete sidewalk.

An entrance to a modern building, featuring a glass double door and glass side panels, topped by a flat black canopy. The wall above is covered with square, brown tiles, and the ceiling above is concrete with visible patterns.

Housing Disrepair? Yeah, I BET!

William Temple Parish Church, Wythenshawe, Manchester, 2024

Four men stand on a paved path leading to a brick building with a sloped roof and multiple dormer windows under a blue sky with clouds. A white car is parked on the left and trees and grass surround the area. One man walks toward the entrance.

Large vertical windows with rectangular glass panes are set in a brick wall. The image is taken from inside, with daylight coming through, creating a strong contrast and making the interior appear dark and shadowed.

A modern church interior with red brick walls, wooden ceiling beams, and tall windows. The central altar features a white cloth and wooden elements. Wooden benches and a large cross hang above, with soft natural light illuminating the space.

A solid wooden door with vertical panels and black studs is set in a white brick wall. There is a small sign on the door that says “Clergy vestry” with a simple illustration of a church on it. The door has a modern silver handle.

A rectangular window with vertical and horizontal metal bars is set in a wall of multicolored, weathered bricks. The glass reflects a cloudy sky and faint outlines of nearby buildings and people.

Roundhouse Hotel, Bournemouth, 2024

A multi-story building with patterned concrete facade and many windows rises above a sloped parking garage entrance. Two parking barriers and signs are at the entrance, with a traffic cone and tape nearby. Blue sky and clouds are visible overhead.

A round, modern hotel building with several floors and many windows, “The Roundhouse” sign above. The building is backlit by the sun, creating a halo effect. Blue sky and some clouds are visible; palm-like plants and a fence are in the foreground.

A wall with a geometric pattern of repeating hexagonal openings made from concrete is seen behind a solid blue construction barrier. Above the patterned wall, white railings and part of a window are visible. The angle is slightly upward.

Final bit from Bournemouth: Roundhouse Hotel. The reviews of the hotel are pretty dire, but no matter. I love any rotunda, especially when it’s also a car park, and especially when it’s wrapped in a beautiful concrete lattice.

Bonus: the logo of this restaurant and bar on the ground floor of the hotel.

A round, multi-story gray building labeled “THE ROUNDHOUSE” sits above a blue and white restaurant called “WAVE RESTAURANT & BAR.” Patio tables, benches, plants, and trees are in the foreground on a sunny, partly cloudy day.

South Western House, Bournemouth, 2024

A narrow city street with a large, aging, gray office building reading South Western House. Shops line both sides, including a blue Leaders real estate office. The street is empty, and sunlight creates sharp shadows. The sky is mostly clear.
