Last Wednesday's "Insane Love" Mystery Spot was no sooner posted than guessed. I never learn. As
Thomas and
BF correctly guessed, and despite my severe cropping, yep, it's the old Ypsilanti Farm Bureau grain silo on the north side of Forest Avenue near the railroad bridge, most recently occupied by the Frog Island microbrewery.
I see that if I am to have any chance at all at stymieing you-all, I'll have to delve into my "Photos of the Lost" collection. All right then. Here's an old crenellated-tower beauty of a--whoops, almost said it. Where and what was this? This is pretty obscure, so I'll be impressed if anyone guesses this correctly. Good luck; answer next Wednesday!

It was at the current location of the "Normal Street Lot" bounded by Normal, Cross, Washtenaw, and Summit.
(Evasively) interesting guesses, both of you. We shall see...
ReplyDeleteThis is EMU's old gymnasium which was located next to the water tower, and where the parking lot is now. I would have to agree with the other comments posted. :)
