A view of the north side of Raymond's business district on E. Broad St. On the corner is the L.F. Boothe & Co. building constructed in 1859. Boothe was a men and boys clothing store. The building has been home to a variety of businesses over the past 160+ years. Today a coin laundry is located on the ground floor, with apartments above.
The Village of Raymond is located in Montgomery County, 13 miles north of the county seat of Hillsboro. This rural, Central Illinois community had a population of 928 at the 2020 census.
The Historic Centre of Brugge illustrates continuity on an urban site that has been occupied since the early Middle Ages. Historical records of the town administration and regulations are condensed in the city records from the 13th century onwards.
An area of continuous settlement, the Historic Centre of Brugge has retained the original pattern of streets and places, canals, and open spaces. A very specific skyline of towers and taller civic buildings (such as the cathedral, the belfry and the churches) dominates the city. For the most part, buildings have retained the original parcels of land. The transformations that have taken place over time respect the functional changes in the town, and have become part of its historic authenticity, in a parallel way to other historic cities such as Siena in Italy.
The history of the town is well represented in the urban and architectural structures that harmoniously unify all periods of history since the origin of the city.
Since the second half of the 19th century, much attention has been paid to the history and the architecture of the town, and major debates about modalities followed the international trends in the field of restoration and conservation. This chronological and historical stratification is clearly recognizable in the urban morphology and architecture and is part of the present character of Brugge.
