The derelict abandoned Texas Longhorn Motel has been put behind a chain-link fence and demolition has begun. Watch my video visit to the motel made earlier in 2022.
I view the photography of abandoned buildings as a form of architectural preservation -- a memory of at-risk locations that are endangered from the threat of progress, being condemned, or collapse. Here's one that I missed.
Thank you to Illinois radio station 100.9 The Eagle for featuring my YouTube video about the old Shawneetown Bank. I had a lot of fun visiting the oldest bank building in the state of Illinois and researching its history.
