Nice flying.
Silos!....why they look like Bank buildings.
"The Anghel Saligny silos were built between 1904-1909 and 1912-1915 by engineer Anghel Saligny are 45 meters high and 30,000 tons each.
The buildings are made of brick and metal structure. The neoclassical elements on the facades as well as the general appearance are strongly inspired by the US architecture of those times.
Each silo comprises 250 reinforced concrete compartments with a total capacity of approx. 30,000 tons of cereals and a flow of 125 tons per hour on receipt and 200 tons per hour upon delivery. Saligny succeeded in designing a technology whereby silos could be loaded and downloaded at the same time. The large number of compartments and their smaller diameter make the grain, barley, corn, etc. at the time of loading the silo, not crushed at the impact with the walls or during storage by pressing against the walls of the silo."

Thank you.

You are right they look like they belong to New York isn't it?
Anghel Saligny was one of the greatest engineers that Romania have.
