Pineapple as Raspberry

September's I Spy update

by Sally Bjork

posted 10/2/2009

"The post-modern pineapple," writes Alice Ralph, identifying September's I Spy photo, "tops the building for Liberty Title at 111 North Main." Adds Siri Gottlieb: "It may have been installed as a nod to home ownership. The pineapple came to be a symbol of hospitality in Colonial times."
