Vintage shots from days gone by!

This is the Market House in the center of Fayetteville, North Carolina. This was sort of a produce market (although some claim it to have been a slave market, that institution's location was a few blocks away). It was built, in 1832, on the site of an original building where NC ratified the U.S. Constitution. As a kid it was a trick to drive straight through the Market House rather than follow the street around it.
