Captured: Stained glass, Logansport City Hall

Stained glass, Logansport City Hall

I was in Logansport recently for a quarterly board meeting of the Historic Michigan Road Association. We met at City Hall, where we honored Michigan Road historian Juanita Hunter. Juanita, who is in her 90s now, spent her early retirement years traveling the road with her husband, taking photographs and documenting the road’s stories. Her work is on file at the Indiana Historical Society.

After Logansport mayor Ted Franklin proclaimed it Juanita Hunter Day in Logansport, we continued with our normal agenda and even had a little lunch together. I wish now I’d photographed Juanita as well as this beautiful stained glass that makes up much of the ceiling on the City Hall’s top floor.

    Stunning stained glass. Do you recall if the photo was taken on a sunny day?

      Cloudy day. Which I think helped the photograph — I think that a sunny day would have tended to wipe out the highlights in the photo.

      It really is stunning. The exterior of this City Hall building is art deco, making it really stand out.

      An ice pack can help with that.
