King of Prussia: Lunar, Loopy


My new page in Otoliths 50 allowed me to discuss the Philly suburb King of Prussia, and its fantastic architecture. King of Prussia (Upper Merion) is as fascinating to me now as it was twenty years ago, if not more so, because the sense of transcendentalism/ethereal levitation in-built to it ages well, has not diminished for me over time, so that being in or seeing King of Prussia is always a treat. Conshohocken (Plymouth-Whitemarsh) architecture tends to be stately rather than lunar or loopy, and the dichotomous tension between the two styles/modes of presentation make for two physiological reactions which complement each other in intriguing ways. I may eventually have something to say about lonesome, windswept Bridgeport at some point too.
