I saw this on a wall and couldn't resist. Click here for a different and more complete picture of the sign.

I liked this building because of the street names etched into it.

For a cup of morning joe on a lazy Sunday morning Dunkin Donuts coffee will have to suffice.

Interesting sign for a Restaurant/Bar on Water Street. I don't understand why they have a guy sleeping on an ironing board for a restaurant & bar, but I found it one of the most interesting signs I've ever seen.

Brattle Book Store

This is the Brattle Book Store on West St. in downtown Boston. The bookstore is full of all kinds of old books and is a great place to look for old books. Here is a link to the store's history. The picture above of a book and a quill and ink pot hangs over the front door. The picture below is in a vacant lot next to the book store where they have an open air market of used books. I particularly liked the mural on the wall.



I don't know how they can afford to use this lot to sell books, land in the downtown area is so expensive and could be used to generate a lot more money as a parking lot or sold to a developer for a new building, but it is certainly much nicer being used as it currently is.
