Old Spaces New For Me Part One

May 16, 2013

Another angle in the world of vintage I would like to explore are places I have always known but never really saw till now.

This is a medical plaza that as it turns out was built the year I was born. I visited recently to see the ophthalmologist my husband has gone to for years. I know I was in this place at least once in my younger years but dont remember why. I was excited to be inside again to see if it was the same as I remembered. To my delight it is.

Tell me now how lovely and peaceful this looks. It truly is what it seems.

So calming.

As a person who stresses over even the most benign doctor appointments, yes even getting my eyes checked, this is the kind of place I’m drawn to.

It is a very simple two story structure that has stood in the neighborhood I grew up in for decades. Driven by thousands of time in my life.

Love the wear of the paint. I could detect red in one of the layers.

Turns out the ophthalmologist started his practice the year after the building was built and the year after I was born. He was great guy and the staff was a pleasure. Not always found these days.
Well Mr. G and I get our appointments taken care of and I truly didn’t want to leave. We stroll around a bit more and look what we find.

You are free to depress yourself now or in the doctors office.

Stones??? No explanation

I don’t get the stones thing at all but thought it was cool among the fountains and foliage.
I don’t have a pic but I always thought it was odd that directly next door to the medical plaza is a funeral home. I hope you enjoyed my look back to the past through the present.
