The NiMo Building, Art Deco Classic, 2010


I took this photo shortly after the tower was renovated in 2009-10. Of particular note in the following weeks of blog posts is the lighting in the tower. There will be other details as well. 

The lighting changes with the holiday and when Syracuse University plays an important game. Originally the colors were generated with an array of neon tubes. They were converted to LED during renovation. Perhaps the neon gave a richer color; I regret I have no photos from the neon period.

Ottawa: The Chamber of Canada, To Be Renovated

The grand Red Chamber, home of the Senate of Canada, and all parts of the Centre Block of Parliament Hill, are undergoing a 10-year renovation. In the Red Chamber all the desks are removed, the lighting is subdued, and there will be no work done in here for a decade.

We were very fortunate to visit the Centre Block only days before is was closed for the duration.
