Andrew I still do not understand your facination with mid-century architecture but bless you for sticking by it.
Hideous building if you ask me but and I would argue that the person who designed it is hardly an architect and if I was Gordon H. Fuller I would demand my name be taken off of it. But hey thats just my opinion.
Poor Gumby... :) One day you'll understand.
Besides, I was never really a fan, until my project with the Art Gallery of Windsor. It has however, started to grow on me...
Who is Fuller? Did he work for the WUC?
Richard,
I have idea who Fuller was... Must have been a director or something....
Yes, I think I've heard of him. He was blind as well, wasn't he? ;)
Andrew,, I sent you an e-mail regarding Sandwich St. Not sure if you received it or maybe it went to your junk folder.
Rich.
Fuller was a Utilities commission member who also owned an excavating company called Fuller construction.
