As far as I know those are all private property. They do not take trespassing to lightly. If you go down further towards the Facemate building you can walk right down into the area, walk along side the canal and right into the back of a few buildings. But be careful. The misguided youth of the area love to hang out back there and cause trouble. <BR/><BR/>I wouldnt stop taking pictures if I am standing on a public road. Infact I would have photographed the person telling me I couldnt. In public no one has the right to tell you to stop as much as they like to think they do.<BR/><BR/>I was photographing outside a building the other day and had a guy walk up to me. He asked if he could help me, I was like with what?? He goes security saw you on the camera and I thought Id come and see what you were doing. I was like school project, want to see my Id? Even though it was a complete fabrication, he apologized and ran off to do something less important.Jeffrey Byrneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00294895415815148525noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092064722783879490.post-44028427392798717152009-02-12T21:10:00.000-05:002009-02-12T21:10:00.000-05:00We (bloggers) will just have to keep testing the l...We (bloggers) will just have to keep testing the limits, and the security guards..! <BR/><BR/>That basilica was built in a faraway frame of mind, if not a faraway place; they certainly don't build them like that any more...Tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16265475275476389339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092064722783879490.post-41327605696058653282009-02-12T16:47:00.000-05:002009-02-12T16:47:00.000-05:00That guard's explanation seems dubious to me too. ...That guard's explanation seems dubious to me too.

Car patrols are one thing, but they seem to catch you most every time. <BR/><BR/>On the other hand, there's probably no worse situation than being on a dark street, empty street with a security guard.Cecilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01330240120689925498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1092064722783879490.post-20022738735089493782009-02-12T13:08:00.000-05:002009-02-12T13:08:00.000-05:00Those photography prohibitions seem particularly a...Those photography prohibitions seem particularly arbitrary and capricious, especially when you consider the thousands of video cameras recording (without permission) nearly every move you make in virtually every corner of the civilized world!Kristi Bodinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06352102727645214566noreply@blogger.com
