Chicago

St. Pauls Kirken with Nyboder, Copenhagen

A rare one where the church came centuries after the neighborhood around it - Nyboder is one of Copenhagen’s most unique neighborhoods, originally built in the 1630s to house the seamen who comprised a new permanent Danish navy, rather than the seasonal levies of the past.

Søpavillonen, Copenhagen

Originally built as a clubhouse for Copenhagen’s Ice Skating Association in 1894, who’d skate on the frozen Peblinge Sø, the Søpavillon is one where I wish it would’ve been disassembled and moved elsewhere - there were once plans to replace it with a public swimming hall designed by Jørn Utzon.

Dill Implement Company, 1531 Stadium Drive, Indianapolis

Gotta admit I didn’t expect this one to still be standing - I’m pleasantly surprised that this old tractor sales and service center in Indianapolis is not only still there, but it’s been rehabbed and converted into offices across the street from the city’s 16 Tech innovation district.
