How can you tell when you’re dealing with cast stone (architectural precast concrete) of the type spread in the NYC area by the Coignet Stone Company? The texture that seems to be a beautiful tooled surface is exactly the same in block after block, with maybe two or three patterns for all of the stones. No stone carver is that perfect, but casting from a mold is.
I should also mention that a guy was watching me as I took this shot, wondering what kind of villain would want a photo of the side of the Fort Johnson, NY, post office.
