Madison, Georgia · · PAGE 4.
July 20, 2019: The main entrance to the
hotel is at the north end of the building. We went inside to see the architecture
and one of the normal guest rooms.
Looking down West Madison Street toward the center of town, some of
the older commercial buildings are still in use today. This street is part
of Georgia state highway 83.
The town square is located about three blocks from the park.
This is the intersection of GA 83 where it turns right with three US highways,
US 129, US 278, and US 441. US 441 comes down south through central
Georgia to Florida and is only one block from where I am typing this web page
today near Kissimmee, Florida.
The Morgan County court house is at the southeast corner of the town
square. It faces the US post office which is at the center of the park
area of the town square.
This is town square viewed from the court house. The US postal
service delivery truck is parked behind the post office building which faces the
north side of he square.
This is the view of the intersection where we came in from the right
on Georgia 83. Looking west is the path of all the highways going toward
Atlanta and Macon, Georgia.
If you look to the left while waiting for the light to turn green,
you see the front of the post office and the shaded park benches in the town
square.
Several blocks west of the town square are some fine old homes on the
main road heading for Atlanta and Macon. Linda took this photo from
directly in front of the house.
She took a few steps to the right from her location for the photo above
and got this view showing more of the porch around the west side of the house.
There was another interesting house nearby seen from the other side of the
main road in this image captured by Linda.
She took this additional photo to emphasize the round corner of the house
and the west side of the property. This place is bigger than the front
view suggests.
