"...a city without old buildings is like a man without a memory."
Graeme Shankland, Architect

Old buildings possess soul and memories and history. Proudly they stand between glittering hi-rises, their windows reflecting sky and clouds. Old buildings are vital, welcoming, alive with an inherent grace and structure not often seen in today's architecture of glass and steel.
