Still in use since the 19th century? Super. In Canada they'd have knocked it down and put up a skyscraper. Oh, okay, unfair to Canada in general. "In some places..." is better.
Very interesting photo, Julie.

The angle combined with the band of columns makes for a very interesting photo. The roof's shadow almost makes the top floor of columns look like pencil points.
Nice!
I like the lines, Julie.
Great light and perspective.
At first I thougt it looks like a gate about an river. But as barrack it is interesting, and in a city it's certanly good motive...
