Shooting the Appanoose County Courthouse

Centerville is the county seat of Appanoose County and this is their courthouse. Located in the center of an uncommonly large square, this is a handsome courthouse in an impressive setting. Unlike most communities, Centerville centered their courthouse on an intersection. This positioning means that, as you approach, you see the bulk of the courthouse from several blocks away. The streets that surround the courthouse square are unusually wide. There are the normal lanes in each direction, angle parking on the outside, and a set of angle parking spaces going each direction between the two lanes of traffic flow. It's like stringing a parking lot around the square; probably nice for downtown visitors.
