I've wanted to photograph this building for a very long time, and I finally did it Monday morning. It's a first for the blog-- the very first out of state header photo.
It's the Broome County Courthouse in Binghamton, NY.
I couldn't find much information on-line, so what you see below comes from Wikipedia.
If you're ever in the area, get off Interstate 81 and take a look around. There's a great deal of revitalization underway in downtown Binghamton, especially around the courthouse, and you'll see that on some weekends in the near future.
Broome County Courthouse is a historic courthouse located at Binghamton in Broome County, New York. It is a massive 2 1⁄2-story structure, built on a raised foundation, in the form of a Latin Cross and topped with an elegant copper dome. Originally constructed in 1897-1898 in a "T" shape, the south wing was added in 1916-1917 to form the cross. It was designed by noted New York State architect Isaac G. Perry. The courthouse is located within the boundaries of the Court Street Historic District. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.
