Ah the North Fork Salt River in northeastern Missouri: It ought to be more widely-known and it ought to have a better name.

"I'd think it'd draw tourists if more people knowed about it," I said in a mocking imitation of a country dialect.

Go stand on that sandy bank in the left foreground, I'll take your picture. No I'm just kidding that's a bad idea.

The North Fork Salt River joins the Middle Fork Salt River to form the Salt River, which flows to the Mississippi River.

Look at this modest commercial building!, with its off-center asymmetrical stringcourse of inverted brick ziggurats.

I hope the chimney on the building next door will never topple, even after human beings go extinct. I'd like to drive my car down that alley but that dumpster is in the way.

In downtown Hannibal, Missouri, on October 30th, 2020, a building on the east side of South 7th Street, south of Broadway, a "contributing property" in the Central Park Historic District, 82000586 on the National Register of Historic Places.

1912 brick backside.

Are you a regular at Rookies Sports Bar. Is it part of your lifestyle to drink there a lot.

The widespread U.S. practice of reducing the sizes of windows is too-little-remarked-upon imo.

INDIANA LIMESTONE ARRIVES IN MISSOURI in 1888 in the form of a post office and federal courthouse. by Tim Kiser

INDIANA LIMESTONE ARRIVES IN MISSOURI in 1888 in the form of a post office and federal courthouse.

The popularity of the "Second Empire" style of architecture in the U.S. in the late 19c was an expression of Americans' widely-held desires to dissolve the U.S. and become subjects of Emperor Napleon III.

-----------------------

In downtown Hannibal, Missouri, on October 30th, 2020, the former U.S. Post Office and Court House, a/k/a the Federal Building, at the northwest corner of Broadway and North 6th Street, (built 1888, designed by Mifflin E. Bell, 80002377 on the National Register of Historic Places), in the Central Park Historic District, 82000586 on the National Register of Historic Places.

A skyscraper built 1909-1910, covered in cellular antennas, PROMINENTLY SITUATED in DOWNTOWN HANNIBAL MO. by Tim Kiser

A skyscraper built 1909-1910, covered in cellular antennas, PROMINENTLY SITUATED in DOWNTOWN HANNIBAL MO.

According to this, "the front door is framed by a pedimented Tuscan Doric tabernacle." Would you have been able to figure that out just from looking at the building? Or do you need somebody to tell you what it is?

Also when they say "tabernacle" they mean "aedicula." Also I think when they say "Tuscan Doric" they mean "Tuscan."

Also the bottom is surfaced in ashlar of famous Bedford limestone from dreadful Indiana.

In downtown Hannibal, Missouri, on October 30th, 2020, the former Hannibal Trust Company building at the northeast corner of Broadway and North 3rd Street (Missouri Route 79), built 1909-1910), a "contributing property" in the Broadway District, 86002128 on the National Register of Historic Places.

The Appliance Depot's building is from 1873! The store sells used appliances. by Tim Kiser

The Appliance Depot's building is from 1873! The store sells used appliances.

On the Google website I read a review that said: "They sale broken equipment for really expensive prices" [sic]. That sounds awful!

Do you prefer the semicircular arches (3rd floor) or the segmental arches (2nd floor).

"Draper's Block," the building is called. Apparently the gabled parapet at the top is not original to the building!! And the third floor was designed to be a Masonic temple!! Scary!

1873 is famous for the Panic of 1873; the 1873 World's Fair in the city of Vienna, Austria-Hungary; and The Tempest by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

In downtown Hannibal, Missouri, on October 30th, 2020, Draper's Block (built 1873) on the north side of Broadway, west of North 3rd Street, a "contributing property" in the Broadway District, 86002128 on the National Register of Historic Places.
