Boston, a beautiful city with lunatic drivers. These fire escapes grabbed my interest, since you don’t really see them in Sydney. I’m not sure why, but I suspect it’s some difference in historical building codes. Then again, Sydney doesn’t have a history of tall residential apartment buildings in the city like America seems to have. That’s probably it actually, workers housing in our early days consisted of tiny victorian terraces, and people lived out of the city if they could afford to. It’s only in the last 15 years or so that residential development has taken off in the city.
I really wish I’d done another exposure for this one, because that washed out building in the background has a wonderful golden metal top.
