Description

  • Content Description: Photograph of Bowie County Courthouse in Boston, TX. A paved road runs in front of the green lawn the courthouse sits on, faint yellow lines indicating parking spots in front of the road's curb. A sidewalk leads up to the entrance of the courthouse, which faces the left side of the photo. A short set of stairs lead up to the dark front door of the courthouse, which is a square building with off-white walls and a roof covered in dark shingles. Three rows of windows span the width of each side of the courthouse. The portions of the building containing the center two columns of windows on each of the building's sides project out from the rest of the structure a short distance, and are topped by A-frame roofs that similarly project outwards from the rest of the upward-sloping roof. Behind the right corner of the courthouse is a flat-topped tower made of off-white bricks. Next to the front right corner of the courthouse is a short, wide building with doors at its left end, wide windows across its walls, and a flat roof. Green bushes sit along the base of the building's walls.
