In school we were required to build final presentation models for all of our design classes. I HATED model building. It was tedious and painful. I have not built a model since leaving school; and i don’t intend to start now
The architectural models in the article are WAY beyond the cardboard models I cobbled together for school, and cost WAY more than any of my sorry attempts. 🙁

| POST OFFICE AND POST CARDS The Postal Service had its 250th birthday this summer; and they have had post offices and post cards for most that time, with the post offices following the architectural trends and style of the period in which they were built. https://www.archpaper.com/2025/07/250-years-usps-built-environment/ |

| RUNNING OFF THE RAILS Long time readers may have noticed that i have been numbering each of the monthly newsletters; with this being number 60. Yes, once a month for 5 years. Time to slip off, and on to other things; with a new word and a little sound track. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMDFv5m18Pw |
