Looks like it's well kept but just used for storage now? Seems to have a lonely feel about it.

@gavin hart: it hasn't actually been used yet - it's a new building in the middle of a newish shopping area.

The gray of the walls almost seems glossy, and looks really nice against the dark asphault. I like the detail under the eave also.

A surreal image. It does have that seaside Victorian feeling but with a dream like aspect to it. Without your title I do not think anyone could guess this buildings purpose. The light shining on the scalloped shelves is wonderful and also a bit eerie. Love the dark tones and how the light hits the interior objects. As in a dream so much remains inexplicable yet very striking. Wonderful image…

Is this wonderful building not in use too? Very sad if it isn't....I love your photos and the details on this building.

What a classical-looking rink. Has a Disneyland Main St. look to it :) Nice shot.

Reminds me of beach boardwalk amusement parks off season. But you're in Kansas and beach-deprived. Wonder what it's like here during the season. Cool shot.

They really put some fancy detail work into this structure. I like the deep saturation of your shade of grey. Really nice image.
