Side door and round stairs

 

Egress doors

 

The side door of this capital building is just as impressive as the front, even if it is not used for entry.

 

 

 

Rusty red hydrant

 

Red bonnet and caps

 

Resembling the Downtown Charlottesville fire hydrant that is located some 460 miles away, this one has a white body, red bonnet and outlet caps, and, rust stains.

 

 

Two keystone waters

 

TYLER WATER water cover

 

WATER water cover

These two water utility covers share "keystone" design elements but show no definitive indications that they were both made by the same company.

The second cover shows salt crust rings around the raised portions of the cover.  Both of these were seen in the street beneath our feet.

 

Other exemplars of the "keystone" cover may be seen here and the links there. 

Water worn

 

GACCO WATER

 

This street traffic worn GACCO water valve cover was seen in the street beneath your feet.  The traffic wear highlights the mixed typography, especially the font used for the letter "R".

 

A more recent GACCO water utility cover may be seen here.
