The stately home of Sir Harry Oakes, now the offices of the Niagara Parks Board.

What a wonderful looking old place that is! Got to love all that old stone work. I like this 2nd shot ... good texture.

Really a beautiful structure, needs a little care and mainetance. I am pleased with how the post on the Lion detail brought out the texture.

Couldn't agree more Rinkdaddy - good to hear from you again.

No definitely not condemed, don't know the complete history, but Sir Harry was murdered down in the islands and now his home is office space for the Niagara Parks Board. His a company owns half of Clifton Hill, the most prized real estate in Niagara, the other half is owned by the mob.

Good luck finding a stonemason/tradesman capable of this work today.
