Smalltown, South Carolina

This is Main Street in our town.

Downtown is less than two short blocks. This is the upper portion. Only one building, a bank, is not visible.

This is the lower portion of downtown.

The opposite side of the street, upper portion. The fence and decorative street lights are new.

Lower section of downtown.

When we moved here in 1982, there was only one traffic light. We now have four. We now have a Wal-Mart and a small shopping strip within the Wal-Mart plaza. While the number of permanent residents has grown little, our student population has grown because of the large number of new apartments and condos built for exclusively for students.

These photos were taken very early on a cloudy Sunday morning. That's why the pictures appear to be a bit dark, and there is very little traffic. As usual, click on pics to enlarge.
