He was responsible for a number of limestone block buildings throughout Kentucky in that period. My father's original medical clinic is directly behind the Old Courthouse, and for as long as I was registered to vote back home, it was where I voted (it is still my parents' precinct). It's a lovely old building and quite typical of the older counties; we are fortunate to still have it, because the other side of the square burned largely to the ground in the 1930s.AiredaleGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18342380256740406514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3864190975528857884.post-14449913888268510222010-10-01T16:28:04.438-04:002010-10-01T16:28:04.438-04:00I love the limestone construction.
