Welcome To The City Of Jasper

Working People, Working Together

Eric & I park near the Walker

County Courthouse.

Eric with the Jasper City Clock

& Parker, one of the 50 Mule

Team Art Project 2011.

That's a young Mule.

Adult Mules are about the

same size as Adult Horses.

The War Memorial to honor

area residents who died in 

World War I, World War II,

& the Vietnam War.

Downtown Jasper was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2004.

The King Building is a 

well preserved early

20th Century construction.

The covered second floor

veranda reminds me of

buildings in New Orleans'

French Quarter.

Its neighbor has a

rooftop patio.

It looks like a fun

place to hang out 

& people watch.

The First United Methodist Church

 of Jasper was built in the

 Beaux-Arts Neoclassical style.

It was dedicated in 1927 & is on the

National Register of Historic Places.

Across the street is the

Masonic Lodge York 201

F. & A.M.

The Cigar Box & a banner

Eric "feeds" one of Jasper's Mules.

Bones Cargo: Unique Clothing,

Jewelry, Housewares, Gifts

Restoration Hall has paintings on its outer wall.

The State Farm Office is so

 welcoming!

Eric and I met Gina Scruggs, the owner, on the street & told her how much we like the seating & water bowls that she provides for local dogs.

The mural was painted in April when Gina's business was closed because of Covid Restrictions.

This empty building is

ready for redevelopment.

This building may have two

different owners with two

different plans for its space.

chose to maintain a distressed

look for its facade.

Sendy's Beauty Salon's front 

looks freshly painted.

Gina Scruggs told Eric and me that downtown Jasper is seeing a rebirth after years of decaying, empty storefronts.  The community's efforts are appreciated.
