In San Diego I feel the most beautiful building is the California Tower in Balboa Park.

Do you have the "before" picture for this one? Before it fell down? It must have been beautiful.

This was a hard decision, but for San Francisco:


The way the Carnelian-laced facade glows at sunset kills its competition.

As for San Diego:


Emerald Plaza, the green hexagons toward the right of the photo. It's like an 80s bamboo cluster, yet, to me, there is elegance in the mindfuck of neon lights.

Photos by me.

It's one of my favorite buildings in Buffalo as well. Here's a few more shots from the New Year's Eve '08 celebration...
