repowers' photostream

In a nutshell: Architect-in-training, photographer, urban wanderer, bicycle commuter, writer, traveller, music fan, bit of this, little of that.
My primary claim to fame is Built St. Louis, a long-running, voluminous web site about the city's historic architecture. I joined Flickr to have a quick, easy place to dump images online that don't necessarily have anything to do with that site, since I generally take tons of photographs wherever I am.
My specialties:
* Mid-Century Modern, especially churches, New Formalism, and the Emil Frei stained glass company
* Urban decay
* Louis Sullivan buildings
* Architecture in general
I run a couple of different web sites:
* Built St. Louis
* Built St. Louis blog
* A Chicago Sojourn
* Milwaukee Streets
Many of my Flickr photos are uploaded specifically for the Chicago and Milwaukee blogs.
I once left my profile logged in on Hoop's laptop. Astonishingly, none of my site links were re-pointed to Goatse. None that I know of, anyway.
