Today I'm continuing my look at the bank building featured yesterday. The round parasol-like structures seen in the above photograph surround the building and dot the park-like grounds around the bank building. They call them "parasols" in the book I mentioned yesterday but, they make me think of a ballerina spinning out from the building and on to the landscape.
In the small photo you can see how the property is located in the shadow of Camelback Mountain with the camel’s head peeking under one of the parasols.
Tomorrow, I'll show more views from this wonderful building.

This is indeed an unusual building, and I like the photo with the view of the Camelback Mountain.
they should cast shadows, they must cast shadows, but i see no shadows. were you out in mid-day to take these?
It is a strange look.
I drive by this corner many times, as it is not far from our house, and I have thought of these accents as mushrooms, not parasols, and certainly not spinning ballerinas.
This is so much more imaginative than a normal bank branch on a busy intersection.
They look like tops spinning around to me. Or those neat two-leaf spinning things that come off of some kind of oak tree - I think.
When I was a kid I always thought they looked like spinning tops.
Very strange, but beautiful!
I'll bet there are many different notions as to what these "parasols" look like! To each his own. Delightful!
How fantastic that everyone looks at these and sees something different Sharon, love the view of Camelback Mountain.
These parasols look a bit like space ships to me. Beam me up Scotty.
Fabulous - and what a location!
very useful and praticular
I didn't realize there were so many of those parasols. These are quite interesting.
Those are very interesting. Bet they provide some good shade in this summer sun!
