Holiday Inn...Kirksville

Post by silverstreak »

On a trip to Kirksville Missouri, I stopped along the way on a tip that this building might not be here for much longer. I had passed the building dozens of times, and always wanted to check it out. Not too much background except that it is a Holiday Inn Motel that gave a few nice photos. I must have taken 25 shots of just the horses and their multiple layers of peeling paint.

**this is now, an antique mall, the rooms that I toured are not going to be used for store fronts any time soon, more likely demolition. I also came across this old Postcard of the building...

Those big empty cubes in the pictures look like the gutted rooms to me...
