Whats so great?

Whats so great about your home town? Post a photo (or several)of what you think captures the essence of what your town means to you. I would like to restrict this to urban shots, or municipal parks. Later on I will be running a thread on your general area. So, lets get started gang, get those photos uploaded!
 
"urban shots, enh...."

Well, here's an historic building in the very center of "downtown"



Taken on a dull winter day with my Brownie Target Six-20.
This neat old building in Lederach (Montgomery County, PA) has a freight elevator
in the back and has been a cigar factory, general store, gift shop and now a restaurant
over its long history.

And here's a "municipal park"



The Heckler Farmstead, one of the first places settled in the township. The barn in the
background is a 1761 vintage "bottom barn" once common in the area.
The photo was among those on the first roll I put through my Ercona II.

As may be noted, 'taint very urban -- and that's what I like about it!

Excellent beginnings! I'll assume that your home town, for you, is history, and a proud heritage.
