The 60s Live On

The 60s Live On

The round light globe, the influence of Bauhaus or International Style on the stairwell sheathed in glass, the interior and exterior transparency. . .they all scream 60s to me. This Mid-Century Modern apartment building stands out at dusk in the heart of a neighborhood of well kept Queen Anne, Edwardian, and Craftsmen style homes on Queen Anne Hill.

I am patiently waiting for a time machine to take me back to the Sixties...what fun then. In the meantime, I rely on places like this and my vivid imagination and memory to remind me!

The 60s had its highs and lows. Not sure I'd want to relive it. But I'm glad to see this photograph and reflect on the impact of the 60s, socially and architecturally.
