Here’s a somewhat austere but grand building. Where is it? And for bonus points, what is it? Make sure to add your name and hometown to your guess and send to: feedback@statehousereport.com.
Our most recent mystery, “Historic storefronts,” shows a line of old buildings along West Main Street in Spartanburg near South Church Street.
“Most of the buildings listed on the National Register nomination form date to the late 19th and early 20th centuries, when the textile industry was growing in that part of the state,” writes David Lupo of Mount Pleasant. “While the photo is more than a decade old, Delaney’s Irish Pub (the green building with shamrocks on the second-floor windows) is still in business today.”
Congrats to these sleuths who identified the buildings: Allan Peel of San Antonio, Texas; Curtis Joyner of Charleston; Gil Bulman of Spartanburg; Jay Altman of Columbia; Frank Bouknight of Summerville; Penny Forrester of Tallahassee, Fla; George Graf of Palmyra, Va.; and Bill Segars of Hartsville.
- Send us a mystery picture. If you have a photo that you believe will stump readers, send it along (but make sure to tell us what it is because it may stump us too!) Send to: feedback@statehousereport.com and mark it as a photo submission. Thanks.
