T-House Down

THouseDown

 

When the old Territorial House burned on July 23, 2012, I was saddened by the damage to the historic landmark I had grown up with, worked on, and even performed in. The demolition started last week and the first two photos show all that was left of it at 8:00 am this morning. I took the last photo of the orange barrels on my way to class this afternoon as I imagined the stormy sky marked the time that the last vestiges of the T-House were dumped in a trucked to be hauled away. The site where the 213 year old hacienda once stood was vacant and scraped clean when I passed by on my way home tonight.

  1. That’s sad. Another one of those historic buildings.
    Great sky shot.

  2. It’s hard seeing something that means something to you, burn down or be destroyed. Last shot is eerily beautiful though.
