Re: Please show me a photo of...
While away for a couple of days in Liverpool, I came across this grand-looking building, near the Liver Building, which my friend told me about.
Apparently, when the Titanic sank they held all the names of the people who died on that ship in these offices - known as the White Star Building. Local people were pressing for details of news about their loved ones and in the end the rather callous people in this building decided to throw pieces of paper from the upper windows with the names of all those who perished written on them. That is how the people found out about their relatives. How awful would that have been? If you look closely in the bottom window there is a white star.
An interesting story though all the same.
