the old state pen


 I tried to get a picture of the new federal courthouse that is being built on the grounds of the old state penitentiary but I could not get to it because the streets are currently under construction. I took a picture of a lookout tower on the wall of the old prison and the house across the street. The house was originally built by prisoners and was at one time, the home of the warden and his family. It was later occupied by a law firm and now it's for sale.

The area around the old prison is nice and flat and a great place to walk. Plus, I enjoy the history of it!
