Scenic Adair Co., KY: Columbia jutting through canopy 2011-08-23 - Guthrie ST Hill - Photo by Ed Waggener. With the compressed view familiar places are frustratingly hard to place. The view is from Guthrie Street. Diagonally across the frame, from lower left to the water tower in the upper right, are the Grider Building on Jamestown Street, 107 N. Reed ST and City Hall on Campbellsville Street, the Columbia Christian Church, and then a long sweep over Russell Creek to the Columbia/Adair County Water Tower in Green River Commerce Park. The Adair County Judicial Center, left, and Grissom-Martin Funeral Home can be recognized, and middle right can be seen the side of the one time Chelcie Barger home at the foot of Jamestown Hill, and nearby the Ernie Curry creation at the foot of Jamestown Hill.

The Changing Face of Fairground ST, Columbia, KY II 2011-08-23 - Lindsey Wilson College, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener. There's a dramatic set of facades peeking through to the traveler eastbound on Fairground Street at the swoosh traditionally remembered simply as the Jethro Davidson Harper / Joe Barnes & Sam Breeding / Grover Cleveland Gilpin / Pete & Creal Harris Curve. The focal point from this angle is the classic School of Nursing School of Professional Nursing. Beyond that is the roof line of dorms near Young Street. The tall columns, right, are part of Fugitte Science Center. The little garage went to the Ben Harrison place - still standing. The cars in the foreground are on the old Harris property. There are cars all over the hill now, as well as continuous building fronts, bringing back a memory the four decades old prophecy of the late Travis Scott, who said, even then, that Lindsey was going to swallow up Columbia, "It's going to cover the town like kudzu," he said. It virtually has, but everybody seems to agree, today, it is a super idea. Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
