Somewhere NE Mpls


The first two pictures are of my favorite building. I have no idea what building it is. I do know that it is in NE Mpls. This building fascinates me because of how it curves. Who knew brick buildings could curve ever so gently? The building gently approaches the tracks and then turns away.

I think these are lofts/apartments. I'm jealous of those who get to live here (if they are dwellings) and of those who (may) work here. I often wonder what the people think, hear, or see from inside that building as they see the commuter whip by. Annoyed? Maybe. Curious? Probably.



Below is a sneak peek into "someone's" backyard. Even though it's industrial, it's "someone's". I realize that there are other people on the train with me, but for some reason i feel like i'm the only one who is completely fascinated with what is whipping by us. I feel like i've been granted an exclusive look behind the scenes. It doesn't matter if it's junk, i'm seeing the secrets the front of the building is hiding.


Believe it or not, this is still NE Mpls. I still have no idea where this is. The one thing about railroad tracks, i never realized the places they could pop up. It doesn't matter if there are signs to see from the road, it still surprises me. Often times i assume the tracks are never used...


And then there is the urban serenity...
