Carnegie Library,

Crown point, Indiana

During my years on the road exhibiting at Art Shows and Festivals, Crown Point, Indiana was a regular on my tour, as it was held on the Court House lawn in the center of town.

The library, built in 1908 was located at 223 S. Main Street, just one block from the center of the town, from the Court house. With the expansion of the library, it now extends all the way to Court Street.  The original part of the building is now being used as office space for the Crown Point Community Library.

The Carnegie Library was one of four paintings from Crown Point, that I painted.  The others were the Lake County Court House;  the Criminal Justice Building and the former Lake County Jail.
