This is the Richmond Dairy Apartments. It used to be The Richmond Dairy. I am glad that they did not renovate and remove the big bottles, what an extraordinary building! There is actually another milk bottle on the other side of the building, and I am sorry I missed it. You can see just a tiny bit of it in the header if you look over to the left side of the building. This photo session was quite fun! On my next post, I will show you another big building with a different giant object on it!

beginners, inexperienced in God's ways; solid food is for the mature, who have
some practice in telling right from wrong.”

I am going to be busy all day today, and will not be able to be on the computer. So I will see you on Wednesday!

Have a great day!

What an interesting building. I'm glad they converted it into apartments rather than tear it down. It would have been a shame to break those giant bottles. :)
LOVE this, Ginny!! Now, if you could just go take a tour of one of the apartments. LOL!!! This is really, really cool. Thank you. blessings ~ tanna
now thats a unique building, you always make me smile too,
Oh I'm glad they left the bottles there too!
I love it! I want to live in the bottle. So cool.
Ginny,
The apt. building is lovely and I'd love to see it from the inside! I bet it is marvelous and unique.
The dog treats coupon caught my eye too but Hurricane is so finicky that I doubt he'd like them...and last, the skies over the Blue Ridge are gorgeous; definitely 'frameable' love them!
Enjoy your day out!
I, too, am glad that so many of these old buildings are being repurposed rather than torn down. I'm enjoying my tour of "oddities" with you.
Best,
Bonnie
i want to go inside that bottle, wow. i love it. i am wondering if they made this into loft apartments. i really would love to tour that building. glad they left the bottles. i wonder if some of the apartments have a room in the bottle.
Very interesting! I've never seen anything like that before! :)
I love this! I love the way you see the world Ginny. Such fun. Maybe the milk bottle on the other side was "lactose free", for hubby. I must say, giving directions to that apartment building would be a blast, who could miss those milk bottles? Yet, that is just my point, you do SEE, what so many others just pass by. Love your blog.
That was so wonderful - don;t think I have ever seen anything like this. Is this near to your home? You have the most unusual things there. sandie
Great shots. This must be a unique place to live.
A fun and delightful post. I love the photos, too. :)
What a neat thing to do with an old building/company... I'm glad they kept the milk bottles... SUPER!!!!!
Thanks for sharing.
Hugs,

That is one unique building! Glad they left it! Hope you're having a great day!
that is a very cool and unique building. Glad to see they put it to good use
Loved this! So glad they kept the buildings!
Hi Ginny, Interesting looking building for apartments. I am glad that they turned it into homes rather than tear it down. Good for the owner. Nice pictures. I so enjoy the variety you post. Have a good day tomorrow!
Now that is something I have never seen anything even similar! If you lived there, you could just tell everyone that you lived in the Milk Bottle apartments.
How well I remember Richmond Dairy delivering milk to our front door! We always got a gallon of milk and some cream at least twice a week.
I would love the apartment right in the milk bottle part of the building! too cool!
Blessings, Joanne
