This is the Linnean House inside Missouri Botanical Garden
& as you can see, they're renovating it and should be finished Spring 2011.
The bottom shot was taken off of a sign in front of the house
from 150 years ago when Mr. Shaw first opened the gardens.

Is that going to be a greenhouse? That's amazingly huge. Great shot!

Che bella questa foto :)
Bye Myriam
Lovely garden, Tricia. And the sky is sooo blue! (It's overcast here right now - not very exciting!)
truly enjoyed this image. thanks for sharing.
Lovely yellow flowers and the blue sky is lovely.
beautiful!!!
So interesting and, yes, glorious blue sky. Love the old barns, too.
Wonderful blue in the sky, and great to have gardens with such a long history.
Fantastic, the blue sky looks so pretty through those brick arches!
Love the building up against that vivid blue sky. I bet it will be wonderful once they have completed it.
What a beautiful blue sky - and the rest ain't bad either! :-) Have a super weekend. I am hoping to see some Fall color this weekend.
Great photo - that building looks really interesting - I love the old brick
A beautiful old structure. Our Gardens in Denver are also undergoing renovation, though there are no historical structures. I like the way the sky peeks through the building.
That looks gorgeous. The whole set of Botanical Gardens photos is wonderful.
What a gorgeous snap! And just look at that Missouri Blue sky...
Glorious blue sky, perfect day to enjoy the gardens.
Beautiful!! It almost looks like a reflection in the windows at first glance. Love the yellow in the foreground.
So nice to see the building repaired and restored. It looks wonderful in front of that blue sky!
There is so much to see at the Missouri Botanical Garden. Thanks for giving us the occasional glimpse.
Wow - love the clear crisp colours of the flowers, sky and very impressive building!
What a beautiful setting - and a very clear and crisp shot - nice!
Nicely framed image. I wonder what it would have been like to walk there 150 years ago!
what a delightful garden. love the blue sky too.
Beautiful view.
this must be an awesome garden. i love the contrast of the blue sky and red bricks.
Great photo, always nice to see vintage buildings being appreciated for their beauty.
lovely garden!
Beautiful photo.
Very beautiful and very well kept!!

Looks like it'll be a beautiful place :)
I love all that brick, and the reflections, and the yellow, and the sky is everywhere
beautiful!!
thanks for visiting my cat post :)
Great shot. We visited the Missouri Botannical Garden last year and just loved it.
A fine picture of this renovation-underway building. Love the symmetry of your shot too. Have a great weekend, Tricia.
Beautiful. And the old photo from the sign came out wonderfully well. Good work.

I love visiting gardens. What a lovely day to be here!
Lovely gardens with bright bright yellow mums. Yes the sky is blue our sky is peek a blue--haha!!! some sun and sime clouds. MB
Old buildings like this feel so solid and conjure up great memories! Glad it is maintained.
Yeah, now that I look a bit closer I see that its innards are missing! Pretty flowers in front, though, and nice blue sky, and I would imagine the building will be splendiforous when it is completed. And you will be there to take more photos, right?
Thanks, Tricia - your comments today meant a lot! Much appreciated!
You were at the Royal Gorge when you were 14? How cool is that? Probably enjoyed the gorge a whole lot more than I did.
Let's see you were 14 in, ah, what year was that? Oh yes, I remember ... that makes you ... oops! I guess I'd better not say any more!
Its not only old it is gorgeous, Tricia. I really like your header photo!
What a beautiful shot!!!
What a beautiful orangerie - much bigger than mine...
Thanks for your comment :-)
Interesting and beautiful.
A really zingy Skywatch!

I love your header photo too! Great colors in this SWF shot. Bricks always look good against blue skies. The house's name is almost like mine!
