The Montauk Club

The Montauk Club in Park Slope, Brooklyn. I loved the look of the columns. The spindle-effect that you see on the corner column is amazing. I wish I knew the actual architectural names of all of the features found on this building.

John Kennedy and his brother, Robert, were members of the Montauk Club as were a few other presidents in the distant past. I guess this was a gathering place for the movers and shakers of those times in the past. Not sure what role the club plays today. Hopefully nothing sinister is going on here. I’ve walked around both the Skull and Bones building in New Haven, Ct. and this building and the Skull and Bones building is much more creepy feeling, if the ‘creepy’ index of a place can be an indicator.

North Head Lighthouse

Thought I would dig into the archives today. These photos were taken a few years ago using my Minolta X700 and scanned into the PC. The location is the North Head Lighthouse at the mouth of the Columbia River on the Washington side.
