Some cool details I spotted on a walk around Fairhaven MA
Good Morning
Today I will share a few shots of some of the cool details I noticed when taking a stroll around Fairhaven MA one day.
Now Fairhaven is a town with a Population of a little under 16,000 so not small but not big enough to be counted as a city
There isn't a universally agreed-upon population number to define a city. and I know some may consider a city to be more than say 5 or 10 thousnad people, but here in the United States, a city is generally considered to have a population of at least 50,000, especially when it comes to the U.S. Census Bureau's definition of an urbanized area.
so I guess with its population its considered a small town, but it sure is big in character, with some well off people having donated various buildings ot the town, including the town hall building where many of the featues I share today are one
Such as this cool detail above one of the columns

Designed by Charles Brigham and built in 1892 the Fairhaven Town Hall was given to the town by Henry Rogers, a wealthy industrialist and businessman. This high Victorian gothic inspired hall even includes granite trim quarried from various Massachusetts towns
I am not sure what it is about old lights like these but they always catch my eye
