I'm a little surprised that, for all the pictures I have from our neighboring state of Pennsylvania, I'm only now getting to one if its small towns for the Blogging from A to Z Challenge.
Towanda, Pennsylvania, population about 2800, is located in Northeastern Pennsylvania and has over 400 historic building. I've never officially visited the borough, but I had to pass through it several times in late 2024.
I took these pictures of some of the beautiful architecture downtown or near downtown in November of 2024.
The MacFarlane House on Main Street. This is a 1854 Greek Revival home that once housed the Bradford County historical society.
The Bradford County courthouse. Towanda is the county seat.
Another view.
Part of the downtown historic district.
The Keystone Theater, originally Hale's Opera House. Unfortunately I had to take this picture from a moving car (I wasn't driving!) and couldn't capture the beauty of this historic building. You can find more
about this treasure here. I love it when I find historic theaters still operating.
This is only a small sample of the beautiful houses in and around this community. I wish I could have spent more time there.
T day in the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. My theme: Beauty of our Land.
