Ship Canal Bollards 2




Here are some bollards that are popping out of the flower bed on this curve leading to the Ship Canal. A very nice industrial looking bench is placed on the boardwalk behind the protective bollards.

And now for something completely different...


I stopped by a car show down at Canalside on Sunday and grabbed some nice photo's. I'm not a car expert but these were pretty cool.

More from Silo City




Here are a couple of pics I took at Silo City. The first is a railroad bumper, the trains used to back up to the silo and get loaded with grain. The other is a group of run of the mill bollards protecting some transformers behind the chain link fence.

Queen Annes Gate





I just wanted to feature another gate that is great looking and still functional. This is Queen Annes Gate on West Ferry Street, this is a private street with two houses on it.

Marine Bollards





Here are some nice marine bollards I spotted along the sea wall at Lasalle Park. It looks like they have been there a long time.

Upping Stone



Here is another upping stone I found along Porter Ave. It appears to be carved out of sandstone. This one was relocated when they redid the street and set it on it's end instead of flat.

Good Luck Symbol






Well that good luck symbol the pineapple showed up again along with a nice lighting bollard at one the mansions of Millionaires Row on Delaware Avenue.
