I walked almost (very close almost) 9 miles yesterday. There’s always a lot to soak in here. The architecture is top level. I’ve never personally seen a place that’s more arousing to my personal architectural aesthetic. My hometown, while small and shabby, has a great deal of Victorian homes and some of my earliest memories are of marveling at them. Of all times in history I think I would like to go back to when these homes were being built. I want to bask in the vibe of people who revered craftsmanship and good building materials and hope for the future. And while, yes, their bathing practices left a lot to be desired, they really understood the importance of regularity and internal hygiene. I think we would get along.
