The downtown area and surrounding neighborhoods are studded with architectural marvels from the turn of the century. This mysterious staircase leads into the shadowy recesses of the Bradley Building, built in 1880. According to one of the fellows visiting together outside the junk store there, the Wabash and Erie Canal once ran directly behind the building.
The staircase leads to a ballroom on the top floor. Can't you just imagine the ladies and their gents, decked out in their finery, arriving for a night of music and dancing?

Interesting tale and mysterious shadow shot!
i like that. i'd HAVE to climb those stairs just to see where they went.
Jody - They go to a locked metal door now, I'm afraid. But yeah, if they weren't blocked I'd have been up those puppies in a heartbeat.
