I thought the "photo quiz" of Hartford JViello posted here was fun so I thought I'd do another one from my own photos taken at work today. I apologize for the quality, it was overcast today and most of these were taken through windows as we were driving, but it should work. I work tomorrow as well so I'll try to get a better variety of different areas of town.

OK here we go. We'll start easy and get harder.



Where am I? What establishment is at the end of this block on the right?




Where is this?




What building is this, and what street is it on? What is directly across the street?




What building is this and where is it exactly?




What the heck is that? Where is it and tell a little about this building's story...




What intersection is this? Which way is East?




What intersection is this?




What is that? (Bonus question: Who is that dude??)




Where is this, and what used to be in this same location?



Again, I apologize for the quality. I'll get better/more tomorrow if there is any interest.

This one has me stumped.

Is that the Capewell "Horsenail Factory" building?

LOL at Amy's description of #5...I've heard that before and it still cracks me up.

That building is an embarassment to the city. I wish someone in city hall would start putting "additional" fines on folks who just purchase property and sit on it for decades so they can just "get their return" out of it.
