The Stone Wall


After doing some research, we finally found a picture of the old Saint Paul City Hall and Ramsey County courthouse.

E.P. Bassford was the architect for the city hall building built in 1889 and demolished in 1932. Stone from the demolished city hall building was used to construct the carriage house and wall surrounding the property at the Emerson Hadley house.

There is a big pile of extra stone in the back yard. Obviously it has been there for quite a while. We're trying to figure out a good use for it.
