Lewisville

Old Buildings on North Side of Hy40

The Corner Building

Here is a view of  the corner building of which I find the rock chimney and bay window along with the stairway very interesting. I wish I had thought to take a morning shot of these features. I  took the modern pole out along with the stop lights for a better view.

Corner Building - Rear View

Here is the rear view of the corner commercial building and it isn't what I would have expected. Being a former brick and stone mason from many years ago, this just simply intrigued me. This shot also gives a closer look at the bay window. The rear of the building to the right is interesting and rather attractive also.

Porch Detail

A closeup view of the porch which has a Romanesque feel.

Federal Building at Hy40 & 1st Street

A fine old Federal styled building on the southeast corner of the main intersection Hy40 and 1st Street. Looking southeast on the afternoon of May 29, 2010.

The Wildey Building

The Wildey building is located at US40 and William Street,  one block west of the main intersection of US40 and 1st Street. This view looks to the southwest.

This photo is looking southeast and was taken in the afternoon.

The Old Methodist Episcopal Church

From Hy40 I noticed the cupola in the distance over the trees and thought I should check it out. I don’t show many churches but I like this one, a bit unusual. This view is looking to the southeast and yes the old power pole does lean. Looking to the northeast shows the old pole and wires to best advantage but not the church. I very seldom choose to have poles and wires in a photo if I can help it but in this case I feel it adds to the scene. For a small town, Lewisville takes the prize for wires.

Cupola Closeup

A closeup view of what I call the cupola. Barns have them, do churches? I sure hope they never tear this one down.
