Loudon

Shopping

 

This was my favorite place.

Walking around town

Courthouse

More history!

Loudon is a city with a lot of potential.  A nice layout for the town and it is very easy to take a walking tour.  It could certainly benefit by having additional places to shop.

The Carmichael Inn is a very nice building, but it is very close to the bridge and surrounded by concrete, so the site is not very appealing.  I looks at a very large fire station across the street.  The station is very nice and modern, but I would think that Loudon could have found another location for it and used this property for a riverfront development project.  The Carmichael Inn seems to closed and there do not seems to be any other businesses in this area.  It was sad to see such an obvious missed opportunity.
