Phillies CAT


Here is a picture of Pablo sporting the new Phillies Baseball Cap we got him this evening at the Phillies game.

Mercer Museum & Fonthill



This past weekend Fauzia and I took a little trip up to Doylstown PA, where the Mercer Museum & Fonthill are located. This is the Museum that I am currently working on at my office. We are in the process of adding a new gallery and entry pavilion for the Museum. The current building was built in the 1800's buy Henry Chapman Mercer, as a museum to document the history of American work tools. The Building was designed by Mercer to look like a castle and it is entirely made of concrete. As part of the Mercer Experience we also visited Henry Mercer's House Fonthill, also made out of concrete and clay tiles. Doylestown is also a very nice little historic town well worth a weekend trip.


The Inside of the Museum looks like a scene out of a Harry Potter book.

Greece in Philadelphia


This weekend we walked along the Schuylkill River in Philadelphia. It was a nice sunny day and we passed along the water works building located behind the Philadelphia Art Museum. We were amazed at how much it looks like a mini-Greek village.

Birthday Dinner



For Fauzia's Birthday, we went to dinner at XIX, the restaurant located at the top of the Bellevue Hotel, one of Philadelphia's most Historic Landmarks.
