That hotel is actually the Dr. P. Phillips Hospital. My wife needed to visit one of her doctors who has an office in a nearby physicians complex. That second photo is looking out of that building’s lobby.

The early training does stick. But even more than that, I watching images on a black and white television. I grew up dreaming in black and white. To save money I ran several darkrooms in Atlanta as well as to earn a living. I can still smell the stop and fixer to this day. I don’t ever want to walk into another darkroom.

Shame about the modern intrusions, but they’d get nowty if you took the signs down and towed the new cars away. The bus could almost pass for era-correct. :)
B&W is still the right choice for some shots. I prefer to shoot colour just in case it isn’t. Maybe it’s because like you I couldn’t afford a lot of colour film in my younger years. Now it’s “free”! I can shoot like crazy and not worry about the cost. Yet I still don’t. That early training sticks with you, eh?
