The Leaning Tower of Bond Street
Sunday, June 14th, 2009
A local resident passing by saw me drawing this building and without breaking his stride, said, “Oh, you’re drawing the leaning tower of Bond Street!”
You can see by the angle of the chimney that this 3-story apartment house has a serious foundation problem.
The siding was added sometime after the shift occurred; it runs over to cover the gap between the two buildings, and there’s a wide strip of roofing materials that covers the gap on top as well. I wonder what the floors must be like inside.
