I'd overlooked this image as I didn't think it was particularly strong, certainly not exposure wise and maybe weak compositionally too. Whilst I couldn't do much about the composition, a bit of tweaking and twiddling brough out a totally different image.
You do have a point Bob as I thought exactly the same thing and I did burn the brickwork down but maybe not quite enough. I could also maybe darken the shadows overall.
Profitable use of the colour sliders, after converting to B & W, in Lightroom would help this image. Lower the orange and yellow until the bricks are darker - to your taste.
