Was Escher the architect?

pillars and balustrades

This set of stairs on the second floor is in the Second Empire style.  The scene is presented as a relaxed view 3d stereograph.

 

A stereogram scene from the fifth floor may be seen here.

Seldom scene

 

Red door (sunlit)

 

This red door at the back of the building is seldom seen.  This scene is of more interest than what is seen at the front of the building.

 

 

 

Stairing at a fence

 

... a stairway to ...

Sometimes, no longer used infrastructure is just left in place.  These barely noticeable stairs lead from the railroad tracks at the Piers signal mast up to a ... fence?  

 

Leave the stairs

 

Left in the corner

 

Left behind by the wind, the left over leaves are on the left side of the stairs.  

 

 

Mid lower level

 

Up or down or stay

 

The marble stairway leads up to the main floor.  The door on the left leads to a plain stairway that goes down to a sub-basement.  Both this floor and the sub-basement are accessible by taking a self guided tour of the building.   

 

This middle level is presented as a relaxed view 3d stereograph.

 

Stairway to back deck

 

Back stairs

 

The stairway allowing access from the ground level to the second level deck also allows egress from the interior upper floors of the building to the exterior ground level of the building.  This bi-directional stairway is presented here as a relaxed view 3d stereograph.

 

 

Sunny stairs

Up to the roof

Although seldom seen, this sunlit stairway at the back of a commercial building continues to cast its shadow, purely for its own enjoyment.

 

Store door

Not in use 

Although it is no longer used, the steps and the doorway are periodically painted and swept so they are in harmony with the rest of the storefront.
