Well, my parkitecture outside the parks didn't attract much interest, but I made a point of photographing and trying to gather information about notable structures within the parks as well. I'm sure you guys can add more than I know about any of these wonderful structures, and as always, your input is most welcome.

This familiar and near-and-dear structure needs no description. Suffice it to say, this year I got lucky - this is the only really nice shot (well, I took several while the sun was so beautiful) that I have of Roosevelt Arch. Bad year for photographing bears, good year for photographing arches :-)

I understand it is not known with certainty but that it is thought that Robert Reamer designed it.
