When I was 12, I walked down all of the stairs. Today it would be the elevator or marooned. Lovely shot. You can see what looks like a watermark about halfway up. That was when it was halted during the Civil War and when building resumed, they used a different material.

I haven’t been to see this since the early 80’s. Thanks for the reminder and opening up those memories. Be safe!
