Travelers Tower

There are many modern glass-walled office buildings in Hartford's downtown, as well as many older buildings with traditional lines.  I enjoy it when the two collide.  Today's image is of the Travelers Tower bounced off a modern building.


It is Friday, so James' blog Weekend Reflections is again showing photos with reflections.  Take a look.

    I wonder how the modern architect would feel if someone told him or her that the best part of his or her design is that it enables a reflected view of the work of another architect.

    Not the house, but the BUILDING that Jack built? I wonder.

    I like your shot : it just looks like you took the picture on a very hot day, and the heat in the air make every thing blury...

    Perhaps that's the only thing I like about modern glass towers, it's reflections. Glad you catch the reflection of the beautiful architecture on its the boring glass surface.
