Adair County Historic Courthouse: Open Door Policy

2019-08-20 - Columbia, KY
This photo of the historic Adair County Courthouse now hangs in Mayor Pam Hoots' office. The photo shows the days when the doors were open wide in summer, back before the wings were added.

It is hoped by many that Rep Bam Carney is in contact with the Kentucky National Guard who may be able to remove the wings as part of their training projects. Once the additions "wings" from the 1970s are removed the Courthouse could be back to its original shape as shown here.

This view is from the Greensburg Street entry to the Public Square, as was the photo yesterday at the same spot (see paired photo link below). Without the wings, more businesses are shown. First National Bank to the immediate right of the courthouse and Nell's Variety Store to its right.
