There's one thing that I've noticed here in London that I haven't seen much of in Las Vegas. Things like gargoyles or using other such animal figureheads in architecture, like this dragon..... actually, I'm not quite sure what that would be used for. It kind of looks like it's either a guard for the column that it's attached to, or you're suppose to use the surrounding ring to scrape dirt off your boots before going into a building. I would believe either one. But the use of Animals in practical architecture is something I haven't seen much of in the more modernly built America and it's something that I wish would come back.
A swan candelabra, I'm not even sure how that works since it's taller than me or if I just think that a candelabra is something completely different.
