Creature

This is a close-up of the details found below the bay windows on the main floor of the Gladstone Hotel.  The fierce creature is super but once again it is the wonderful carving in the stone that I love!

    Gorgeous carving and stone work here. It looks like a new take on the standard building gargoyle.

    The detail is fantastic, and the closer you look the more detail you see. Especially on the creature in the middle!

    I love the detail in older buildings. So much nicer than the glass and metal of new ones
