Depicts: Town Hall (Manchester, United Kingdom)

Another direct swap I proposed, and it was the first one for Teresa, which always makes me happy! And this instantly become another one of my favorites because it's so beautiful - and glossy like a photo, even though the picture doesn't show it.
Manchester's famous Town Hall was designed by architect Alfred Waterhouse in 1877. Its design is Victorian Gothic and was chosen out of 136 other proposals, due to its ability to fit into the triangular-shaped space allocated to it.
