The Culpeper County Courthouse, located in Culpeper, Virginia, was built between 1870 and 1874 and was preceded by two earlier structures, the first dating to 1750. Information from the Virginia Tourism Corporation website.
Also visible to the left is a memorial honoring area residents who served and died in the Vietnam War. Happy Veterans Day tomorrow, with thanks to those who have served.

Courthouse Towers marks the end of the one mile trail from park ave and is one of the larger stand alone rock faces in the park. Sunny clear skies again :sigh: I did manage to get the sun just peeking out the top to add some interestingness though.

The Highland County Courthouse, located in Monterey, Virginia, was built in 1948, as noted in a regional news article. I've also photographed this courthouse during the Highland Maple Festival in March, when many vendors are set up on its grounds.
Built: 1767, still in active use.
"The Chowan County Courthouse is a historic courthouse in Edenton, the county seat of Chowan County, North Carolina. Built in 1767, it is one of the finest examples of public Georgian architecture in the American South. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1970.
The old Chowan County Courthouse is located in downtown Edenton, at the northwest corner of East King and Court Streets. It is separated from the city waterfront by a one-block park. It is a two-story, T-shaped Georgian style building. It has a one-story semicircular apse at its center rear and features a two-stage wooden cupola with ogival roof surmounted by a tall-weathervane. The interior has a large courtroom on the ground floor, and a ballroom on the second. The building has seen only relatively modest alterations.
Edenton was settled in 1658 and incorporated in 1712, and is counted as the first permanent European settlement in North Carolina. Its first courthouse, built in 1719, was also the seat of the colonial assembly, and was located on the land of the park. This courthouse was commissioned to be built in 1766, and completed in 1767, and its design has been attributed to Gilbert Leigh, who was living in Edenton at the time of its construction. It has also been attributed to John Hawks, who designed Tryon Palace in New Bern, was active in North Carolina at the time. It is the oldest courthouse building in North Carolina.
The courthouse is one of several sites of Historic Edenton. Other historic sites open for tour include the James Iredell House, Roanoke River Light, Barker House, Cupola House and St. Paul's Church." (Wikipedia)

Courthouse Falls is a relatively short and easy/moderate hike off Summey Cove Trail in the Pisgah National Forest near Asheville, North Carolina. This is a great hike, that my neighbor and friend, Reid did on Friday, 4/17. It was just one of many that we visited that day
The Milwaukee County Courthouse is a high-rise municipal building located in downtown Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Completed in 1931, it is the third county courthouse built in the city and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Situated on the crown of a hill, the building is 174 feet (54m) tall and has eleven floors. The Neo-Classical Revival style of the building was the result of a nationwide design competition, in which architect Albert Randolph Ross with the New York City firm of McKim, Mead, and White was selected out of 33 entries from across the country. It was constructed using Bedford limestone and features architectural details and sculptural decorations with a Beaux-Arts influence, such as a flat roofline, stone owls and lion heads. Masonry was provided by Andres Stone and Marble Company, owner Edgar Andres whose family also helped construct the Library and a local bank which is now the home for the Milwaukee Historical Society.
The NRHP nomination observes, "the most monumental of all Neoclassical courthouses in the state, the Milwaukee County Courthouse is perhaps the apogee of the Neoclassical movement in twentieth century civic architecture in Wisconsin."
While heralded as one of the grandest courthouses in the United States, it was once called a "million dollar rockpile" by famous American architect Frank Lloyd Wright.
On the other side of this building is the much more colorful Superman museum in Metropolis, IL. However, instead of focusing on that, I decided to focus on the rear of this fairly innocuous building. The thing that drew me to this building, of all things, are small yellow signs by the doors indicating that this building would serve as a nuclear fallout shelter.
The United States Courthouse in downtown Kansas City. I was coming back from a photo walk of the downtown area when I noticed the sun rising on the Western side of the structure. This is part of a two day entry this week. This image is the front of the building. Tomorrow I will give you a glimpse of the back.
Built: 1767, still in active use.

The courthouse in Lawrenceburg, Indiana was built in 1870-1871 from limestone in the Greek Revival Style. Image was taken from the floodwall to it's south. Dearborn County has the reputation of being one of the toughest on crime in Indiana. Drugs are responsible for much of the crime. Drugs changed America. The steam in the background is from a gas fired generating plant.
The Old Courthouse (officially called the Old St. Louis County Courthouse) was built as a combination federal and state courthouse in St. Louis, Missouri. Missouri's tallest habitable building from 1864 to 1894, it is now part of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial and operated by the National Park Service used for historical exhibits and events. The Old Courthouse was the site of the first two trials of the pivotal Dred Scott case in 1847 and 1850. It was also where Virginia Minor's case for a woman's right to vote came to trial in the 1870s.

This is The Courthouse, Athy, Co. Kildare. Quite why it warrants an entry in the Irish Tourist Association collection is not clear at all. It is a fine building in the “very curvy style” and I see our old friend Bill Stickers has been very busy on the gable end.

Date: Likely May or June 1944.

I waited months to take this shot, coming back to this spot numerous times hoping for a decent sky. I would always get the bald blue conditions so many of us loathe in landscape photography. This particular morning, however, I was rewarded with a great sky that moved in just about 10 minutes before sunrise! Arches National Park, Utah
Here's a straight-ahead shot of the Culpeper County Courthouse, which I took with a vertical perspective, as opposed to the angled horizontal shot already on my photostream.
Located in Monterey, Virginia, the Highland County Courthouse was built in 1948, as mentioned in a regional news article. During the Highland Maple Festival, its grounds are the location for numerous vendors' tents that attract many visitors. In this shot, the tents are located out of view behind and to the right of where I was standing. While there, I bought some maple syrup from one of the county's syrup makers.
Trying out my Mavic Air 2 today. A smaller drone that held it's ground, or should I say air, during 15mph winds. Details, at a first glance seem to be there. I'll want to do some more exploration for sure. Nervousness meant that this would be my only shot using the new drone.
The Carter County Courthouse anchors downtown Ardmore with the kind of quiet authority only an early‑20th‑century civic building can carry. Completed in 1910, it rose during the oil‑boom years, when Ardmore was transforming from a frontier town into a regional center of law and commerce. Its Classical Revival style shows in the symmetrical façade, tall arched windows, and the proud Ionic columns that frame the entrance — all meant to project stability in a fast‑changing era.
More than a century later, the courthouse still stands at the heart of the community, a solid piece of Oklahoma history watching over the red‑brick streets of Ardmore.
