This storefront is on Main Street in the small town of Hudson, Indiana. All of the storefronts in Hudson were vacant except this one, the post office, and a bar. This one was closed when I was there on a Tuesday morning, and I don't know if it is still in business.
A bumper sticker on the front door says: "Proud Steuben County Democrat." That's a bold thing to say in Indiana, which is solidly Republican outside the large cities.
Judging from the stuff I could see through the front windows, this place is or was an antique shop. The traffic light over the door is the sort of thing that you see as an attention-getter on many antique stores in Indiana.
The second-floor door leading to a long fall to a hard sidewalk is something I have seen on a lot of old Main Street commercial buildings in small towns. I imagine that they must have had balconies to walk out on to when they were built. I wonder why they're gone now.

All of my prints are available framed or unframed. I use black metal Neilsen & Bainbridge frames with white cotton unbuffered museum board for the mat and backing board for maximum archival protection. Photographs are printed on an Epson pigment printer using Epson's archival ultrachrome inset for long life.
