This is the Jackson County Courthouse, built in 1934. Notice any resemblance between the courthouse and City Hall? You might, given that the same architecture firm designed both structures!

In the early 1900s, the Glennon Hotel sat on this same corner. Inside the Glennon, you could shop at a small haberdashery. You might be asking, “Wait, what’s a haberdashery?” Basically, it’s a fancy word for a men’s clothing store. But today, we remember the Glennon Hotel haberdashery for its famous owner… Harry Truman!

    Interesting tour, lots of history but not much about present day. Difficult to access, navigate and return to. Liked that I could access it later for more depth.
