  • Summary

  • Any Old Place is a series exploring unique places in Frankfort Kentucky, collecting stories from the past and following them through to the present. Each episode of Any Old Place features a different location, with guests sharing their connection to it. In this episode, host Clay Wallace interviews Russ Hatter and Mark Overstreet about the old federal courthouse and post office building at 305 Wapping Street - known more recently as the former Paul Sawyier Public Library. This is the first of a pair of episodes exploring this space - we'll be posting the second half in the new year!

    If you’re listening to this episode the week it airs - Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! Every year, the Capital City Museum puts out an ornament highlighting a special part of Frankfort. This year’s ornament features a three-quarter view of the place we explored today - the old U.S. courthouse and post office building - suspended in a golden frame. If you want a little piece of Frankfort history on your tree - or, if you want to send a bit of home to a loved one far away - you can snag an ornament by coming down to the museum at 325 Ann Street. Ornaments are 20 dollars or free with a one-year membership to the Wilkinson Society.
