Blair County Courthouse

USA / Pennsylvania / Hollidaysburg / Allegheny St., 423
 courthouse, historical building

The Courthouse (1877). This attractive building sits on one of the narrow streets making up the old downtown of Hollidaysburg. With its narrow streets and small blocks, Hollidaysburg has a colonial feel, unusual for a western town.

The front, in a Gothic style, dates to 1877 and the rear projecting section is an addition of 1906 done in the same style, even to matching the facing stone and trim. The clock tower rises out of the back center and the Gothic front is churchlike with the towers framing the triple arch entrance. On the left down the street is a modern annex built to blend with the courthouse if one doesn't look up.
