You are correct, Steve. It was a joke on my part, stating that here municipal architectural review boards would prohibit the construction of building that looked like that. I did not mean to suggest that there was anything improper about photographing those buildings. Nor was I criticizing the quality of Bipin's photos; I was only suggesting that I did not think the buildings themselves were very attractive. I share your suspicion of architectural review boards. I better economic times, a large part of my practice was representing developers of commercial real estate, and I had many disputes with architectural review boards and planning boards the wanted to redesign my clients' buildings.
