The Bayliss Public Library, a Carnegie Library 100 years old.



As you can see, it's Bunco night at the library, so I couldn't put my bike right in the front because of the cars lining the road. Also didn't want to get run over by an eager arrival. Tongue

Here's the Witch's Hat Depot from my town's small historic park. Notice in the background of the sign pic is the Witch's Hat Brewing Company.

Haha well maybe the latter reason should also be added to why it's in the register! Just looked it up - pretty cool that it's been around since 1909!

You may have seen it in Blues Brothers, Shawshank Redemption, most recently Prison Break, and a few other movies. It's a pretty cool old building. I've driven by it a few times, but never stopped. I included one shot with pics of plaques, so you can see it is legit historical. I also thought this Blues Brothers wall was cool so Inam throwing that in (I know it doesn't fit the challenge). Joliet is pretty run down, but it has some great history, check it out if you're ever around Chicago. It's also the start of historic Route 66.

That's pretty cool, I was obsessed with Prison Break but never got to finish the series. Also - your bike looks great!

Here is my CB at historic Lecompton, Kansas.
The sign says:
In 1855 the new town of Lecompton became the capital of Kansas Territory. President James Buchanan appointed a governor and officials to establish government offices in Lecompton and construction began on an elegant capitol building. In the fall of 1857, a convention met in Constitution Hall and drafted the famous Lecompton Constitution, which would have admitted Kansas as a slave state. The constitution was rejected after intense national debate and was one of the prime topics of the Lincoln-Douglas debates. The controversy contributed to the growing dispute soon to erupt in Civil War. The Lecompton Constitution failed, in part, because the antislavery party won control of the territorial legislature in the election of 1857. The new legislature met in Constitution Hall, now a National Historic Landmark and immediately began to abolish the preslavery laws. The victorious free-state leaders chose Topeka as capital when Kansas became a state in 1861.
Constitution Hall, a National Historic Landmark, still stands in Lecompton and is a State Historic Site. Part of the never-completed capitol later was rebuilt as Lane University. President Dwight Eisenhower's parents met while attending Lane University and were married in Lecompton in 1885. The building now is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is a museum of territorial history.

Nice picks and pics mjpark and Redbird! I really enjoyed the history behind each of these too.

This is the La Quinta Inn in Irvine. 101 rooms of this joint were once the grain silos of Irvine's former bean and grain warehouse. They had to use diamond saw blades to cut through 6-inch thick concrete to carve hallways, doorways, and windows out of the hexagon-shaped silos.
The other half of this place used to be home to Tia Juana's Long Bar, which I didn't know had closed until I stopped by the other day - I've had some good memories at that bar! Now it's some marketing agency, go figure.

So, we're a week out before I post the July photo challenge. Here's a recap of the first half of 2017. January was from the post originator, EmptySea in Illinois, U.S. (post #1, statue), February was from InHouse Bob in Virginia, U.S. (post #62, animals), March was from Ben70 in California, U.S. (post #101, bridges), April was from Wisedrum in Germany (post #195, a gathering), May was defaulted from use2b in Florida, U.S. to the Ferret in Ohio, U.S. (post #252, body of water), June was from c-breezy in California, U.S. (post #305, historical building, site or strutcture).

So far, we have two countries and two continent winners. Instead of posting the July theme in daylight hours where I live in the U.S. Eastern Time Zone (and consequently daylight for everyone else in the western hemisphere), look for my post to appear in the wee hours after midnight EST July 1st. This will give the Eastern Hemisphere a chance to play right away instead of waiting for darkness to pass.

I intend to pick a 'geographical feature' as my option EmptySea list in post #1. You'll find that this geographical feature can turn out to be quite scenic or plain and simple but I believe available to every forum user we have. Stand by!
