Edina, Return to the West Side of the Square, November 2012

Copyright St. Louis Patina -014

In a first for this website, I’m actually publishing pictures I’d let sit around for years after I published later photos. But renewed interest in Edina’s stunning west wall of buildings got me to pull these out of storage. It was an early morning in November 2012, and the light was hitting them beautifully. Read about these buildings at their National Register Nomination. And see the photos from 2008 and 2016.
