A series of entries designed to capture the ongoing adventures of NINA! See how we came to be where we are today, and follow along as we enter the new century of social media!
Page: 2Shoddy snow clearing observed at the intersection of Capitol Avenue and Broad Street, in Frog Hollow.
The snow plows went around the posts, substantially reducing the width of the lanes at the intersection.
The Hartford unveiled its new logo at its Asylum Hill campus today - or earlier, because I haven’t been walking to work as much as I should. This is part of a major re-branding effort, and the new logo will be reflected on NINA's website as well.
I realized this morning that yesterday, as I was taking detailed shots around 847 Asylum Avenue, that I had forgotten to get a photo of the light fixture in the billiard room, so I went back for just a few more shots - 11 in all. These constitute the last photos I will take of the interior of 847 Asylum Avenue while it is a NINA home!
The photo here is the actual last photo, a shot looking out a north facing window in the billiard room. This is the 10,085th photo that I have taken of 847 Asylum Avenue.
I went back today to get a few additional shots of finish details at the house. All of these were "original" to the house, as in they were there when NINA acquired the property. We think that most of them are original to the Mead addition done in 1884-1885.
Some details of the two closets and the bathroom in the primary suite on the second floor of the owner’s unit. The chest in the bay window was built by two carpenters working for Fresh Start Worx.
I don't show off basements all that often, but hte basement at the Plimpont House i bright, airy, and spacious. The photos here run from the back stairs down into the basement, then around the basement, and then up the stairs at the middle of the basement, which is right by the kitchen on the first floor. These photos may show up again if I decide to do a before-and-after display of basement photos.
I just really liked these two.
