Brick on the (closed) Klondike Gold Rush National Historic Park ... all the bricks on this building from 1890 Era. Interesting to note that these bricks - formed and fired in the frenzy of rebuilding after the Great Fire - incorporate all manner of bits and bobs.

Interesting brick, pitted, amd.it clearly contains things like cinders, other bits of brick, etc. Close up.

Another morning street view: this time, a madness of plants in enormous pots out in front of a hotel, it turns out, in Pioneer Square. The plants include Musa (banana), Dicksonia (tree fern), and asiatic Mahonia (Oregon grape).
