A Tour of North Street

· · 🌡️ 57°F

On a lighter now. We decided to do a tour of the Carapelli museum in the old Christian Scientist Church. The building seem so empty and lifeless. It looks like what would be the the government's Ministry ministry if there was one. It has a few manuscripts that you can freely look at. Currently, the selection includes hand written notes by famous criminals. The one from Charles Manson was peed on, he even wrote the word pee on the pee spot.

I do not believe that the hand written note from Gallileo, once of the only ones in the western hemisphere is sitting, unprotected in that empty building that you can just wander around in.

Their guest book seemed rather slim.

I have to say they had the nicest urinals I have probably ever seen. If they ever go out of business I would buy them. In buffalo you can actually wish for that kind of thing and have it be possible, lol.

I really love the Bemis house. I wish someday I could own a house like that one. Also, maybe could be possible in Buffalo.

Can you imagine having those bricks or those gargoyles.

The Mark Twain house was also pretty aweosme. You can't really tell how big it is till you go right up to it, or you see a picture with a person in it.

Look how big that freakin window is!

They are really fixin it up.

Three assholes on North, lol

And then there is this insane remudled house across the street. What the fuck is up with that upside down brick thing in front of the natural doorway. How did anyone decide to do that?

    My brain is drawing a blank. Where is the Bemis house? I'm imagining NForest, but your post is a tour of North. I cant visualize where.
    I haven't been close up to the buildings you, Matt, Terry and Dave were at. I love that gigantic window! As you said, its a lot bigger up close; which I hadn't thought about just in looking at them.

    It is right near the corner of elmwood and north. Going toward symphony circle it would be on your right.

    I have walked past those Buildings a bunch of times and never thought to walk up to them, I wonder why that is. The same can be said of that Manuscript place. Great pictures by the way.

    Ya, the manuscript place is free. You should go, just to see it. That bathroom is in the basement and is kind of creepy and in the dark. It looks like something out of a horror film or a gay porn, lol.
