The Heritage Trail --Now this one is old

...Along the Heritage Trail is the oldest building that is still currently being used in Edmonton. The Land Titles Building was built in 1893.When settlers arrived in Edmonton this is where they would come to purchase a deed to a piece of land where they could set up their home. Today it is home to the Elizabeth Fry Society

Such an interesting contrast in architecture against the modern building in the background. Nice shot!

I love the old with the new in the photo too. Great shot!

We also have old and new buildings living together in Brisbane here in Queensland; and they look great together. We've even used an old building as a casino and made it look great - it's the Treasury Casino. Strangely enough, we have only one casino here in Brisbane and half the place started calling the city Bris-vegas... how corny. :P
