MYSTERY PHOTO: Identify this classic building

Here’s a classic-looking building that may be closer than you think.  Send your guess about this holiday mystery to ebrack2@gmail.com.  Happy holidays.

The previous mystery was solved by several people, as Allan Peel of San Antonio, Tex. described: “It’s a photo of Plaza de España, a large plaza located in the northeast corner of the Parque de María Luisa along the eastern bank of the Guadalquivir River in Seville, Spain. It was designed by Spanish architect Aníbal González (1876-1929), who designed many popular landmarks throughout Seville and Madrid. The Plaza was completed in 1928, a year before González’s death, but well before the May 9, 1929 opening of the Ibero-American Exposition of 1929, the world’s fair in Seville for which the plaza was originally created.”  The photo came from Molly Titus of Peachtree Corners. Also solving the puzzle were  George Graf, Palmyra, Va.; Lou Camerio, Lilburn; Stew Ogilvie, Rehobeth, Ala.and Jay Altman, Columbia, S.C.

Recycle Christmas trees at “Bring One for the Chipper”

Gwinnett Clean and Beautiful is planning its annual   “Bring One for the Chipper” event, transforming live trees into mulch that will grace public spaces and parks over the coming months. With the help of its partners at Jackson EMC, Walton EMC, Republic Services, and the Gwinnett County Departments of Transportation, Parks and Recreation, and Fire, GC&B will collect cut trees between December 26 and January 22, 2025, at select fire stations throughout the county. The trees will then be transported to Bethesda Park at 225 Bethesda Church Road in Lawrenceville for Bring One for the Chipper 2025 on Saturday, January 25, 2025. Volunteers are needed to help haul those collected trees to the chipper, where they’ll be transformed into mulch. To volunteer, interested parties must register online at Volunteer Gwinnett. Questions may be directed to gwinnettcb@gwinnettcb.org or 770-822-5187.
