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.
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)

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.

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 courthouse was constructed in 1871. Architect Elijah E. Myers designed the building in the Second Empire style; the courthouse is one of the few remaining Second Empire buildings in the county. (Source - Wikipedia)
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.

The building was designed by Thomas Brown II and built 1844-48 with (mostly interior) alterations by Kinnear and Dick Peddie in 1892. It is a 2-storey (4 storey at rear) 3-bay, irregular-plan, former court house and jail in the Jacobean style. It is prominently positioned at the western head of the High Street on ground sloping down towards the river at the rear.

Bath County Courthouse
Warm Springs, Virginia
The courthouse was built in 1914; the 1980 addition at the rear doubled its size. Bath County was created from Augusta, Botetourt, and Greenbrier counties (the latter became part of West Virginia when that state was formed) in 1790. It's name reflects the presence of mineral springs and associated baths, which drew people to the area. The county seat is Warm Springs. The Homestead Resort, dating from 1766, is at Hot Springs, also in Bath County.
At the 2010 census, Bath county's population was 4,727; the Census Bureau estimates it lost over 5% by July 2015, falling below 4,500. Still, this is about twice the population of Highland County, its northern neighbor, whose population also is declining. The two counties are in the NW corner of Virginia, adjacent to West Virginia; US 220 runs through them, NE-SW.

Governor George Deukmejian Courthouse
Long Beach, CA

The courthouse in Long Beach used to be the ugliest public building in town. Followed by City Hall. Thankfully, both have been replaced by beautiful big glass structures, all reflective and gleaming, shiny and new.
The new courthouse opened in 2013. The new City Hall opened this past month and is located where the old courthouse used to stand. The old City Hall will soon be demolished and a 36 story residential tower built in it's place.

San Diego's first building by Richard Meier is the new courthouse, just completed downtown. Alas, I just missed a spectacular sunset, because I got there too late (I hadn't been planning to shoot this). I'll go back...
I wonder why I landed first at the Courthouse the Town and it's Habitantes sure have a history of being a bit of a volatile place and bunch
Local writer Ronald Hugh Morrieson presented a dark, seamy version of mid-20th-century Hāwera in his novels. Many locals found his descriptions offensive. An attempt by fans to save his house from demolition in 1992 failed, partly because of this. It is now the site of a KFC restaurant.
