It's Coming

This is the other side of Queen St W from yesterday's post and you can see the signs of modernity approaching the older buildings. Some of the old ones have disappeared completely such as where the H&M store is. Here's hoping that this doesn't happen to the whole street.

Wow, what a difference. The modern buildings are creeping that way. I'm with you, I hope it doesn't creep across the street.

Developers are relentless.

Hello,

That is sad to see the old buildings disappearing. Enjoy your day, happy weekend!

It's a shame that modern buildings are taking over the area.

Oh, so sorry to see those old buildings surrounded by all that horrible glass.

Michelle said...

I love the older buildings!

Older buildings give cities and identity. Lose them and you can be anywhere.

Glass vs. brick.

Perth has a great way of combining old and new architecture, I hope this goes for this place, too.
I still have a t-shirt I bought at age 18 (I´m nearly 48 now.. help!) at H&M, when they were still cheap (I wear it at night only ;-) It´s a little "worn"...)

It looks like the new glass buildings are gobbling up the old ones here.
