A few urns before the Shutze's

I'm going the 2011 Shutze Awards tomorrow, February 12, at the Piedmont Driving Club. You should too. In the meantime a handful of urns from Shutze designed buildings.


This urn "on location" at the Andrew Calhoun House (1919-23) The Pink Castle is not quite as big as a refrigerator.

The Grady High School Urns in 2 by 2 formation.

  4. There isn't room here to list all the things I like in this and yesterday's posts, although the semi-circular entrance vestibule, the little William Jay-inspired pavilion, and almost all the urns top this list..
