Citizens Bank

Rock Hill, SC  2024
 
Built in 1924-1925, the Citizens Bank Building was the first "high-rise" building in Rock Hill with six stories.  It housed a couple of banks, and an early radio station on the second floor.  An observation deck on the roof was used by the Civil Defense during World War II and can be seen in yesterday's post.

Post Office and Courthouse

Rock Hill, SC  2024
 
This building was opened in 1932 and replaced an older post office that had been in use from 1906. It served as a post office until 1986.  It also housed a district court, various federal offices, and the local headquarters for several US Congressmen.  It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988

Wire Scuptures

Rock Hill, SC  2024
 
I found these whimsical wire sculptures while walking around downtown, Rock Hill, SC.  While very interesting, I couldn't  really find a good shot that would really isolate the sculpture from the busy backgrounds.  Perhaps someone with a better photographer's eye would find a good image here.

12 Mile Creek

Waxhaw, NC  2024
 
The effects of Hurricane Helene were felt throughout the state of North Carolina with the worst of the damage occurring in the northwest part of the state.  The Charlotte area was spared this time, but there was some flooding and downed trees.
