Downtown St. Augustine (FL) has it's share of historical buildings; across from Flagler is a castle-like hotel built in the 1880's named Casa Monica. If you make a trip to the area I recommend paying this landmark a visit, it's very impressive.
Whimsical shot from street level towards the stars and stripes:

Re: Casa Monica | St. Augustine FL
I looked at it this afternoon with to much daylight lighting the room for optimum viewing conditions for my monitor. Nearly commented on the building looking to dark. Glad I did not comment as it looks fine now with the normal artificial lighting in the room. A very strong diagonal composition. Would look great with a cloudless dark blue sky. Interesting balustrades and architecture.
