Brian Hall<p>I took a tour of the Shawnee North Community Center today. Built between 1920-1923, it was originally the Shawnee County Poor Farm.</p><p>I&#39;ll post more pictures in the usual places within the week or so but Mastodon will get a little tease.</p><p>There are hopes to create a small museum at the center detailing the history of the land. I hope it happens. <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/ShawneeCounty" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>ShawneeCounty</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Kansas" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Kansas</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/history" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>history</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/poorfarms" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>poorfarms</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/parks" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>parks</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/hospitals" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>hospitals</span></a></p>
