Hahaha. We have that in common and our love for labradors

Nice to see that photo of Taft. Sadly, never saw it without the LRT. I'm glad I saw EDSA before MRT and those dirty markers. Remember the marker of Makati in Guadalupe?

one has to cross Isaac Peral (now UN), P Faura, and Herran, to get to PWU from where the picture was taken.

My bad, I was thinking of EAC. You are correct dr. d. It's after Herran when you're coming from Lawton.

so where did that bird fly to?

[falken]

the big question is, who machinated the demolition of the jai alai bldg?
it's a national heritage bldg and should have been protected by the government.

Iirc, it was Mayor Atienza. It should have been preserved and never been demolished.

They removed it during the construction of MRT.

Agrifina Circle. The place to go when you love roller skating in the 70's to early 80's. It draws a crowd during nightime.

for the longest time, i was wondering who this ms agrifina was.
yun pala, it is a combo of the Dept of AGRIculture and Dept of FINAnce, which used to be housed in the two big buildings set on opposite sides of the circle.
