Contiguity - a photo on Flickriver

Contiguity

            Architecture should speak of its time and place, but yearn for timelessness,
~ Frank Gehry.

I took this in Surrey (BC).
 The foreground building is the Surrey Central Library designed by Bing Thom. It's an incredible building and I wish I could have captured the entire building, but there were too many things in the way. I will try to post more of this amazing building if I can find another one that shows a bit more. 

The Civic Hotel is in the background. This hotel is also in my image "Window to the World."
