Hello,
I do research as a hobby and came across your website while looking for INFO on the abandoned Old Bureauguard County Jail in De Ridder, Louisiana. It intrigued me when passing it while visiting relatives!
I am amazed at the history and architecture of the Englewood Post Office in Englewood, CO.
I also, enjoyed looking at your other places of interest, Keep up the good work. I’ll be visiting your site more often.
