Going Down?

Uploaded: March 17, 2010 06:24:09

Description

The visitor center at Mill Creek Park in Youngstown, Ohio, is a beautiful building. The lower floor often is used for wedding receptions, flower shows and such -- and I love the winding stairway that takes visitors there. Converted to B&W, obviously! Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone -- as you might expect, the RYANs will be out and about celebrating much of today!
