Just last week, Bob Gilreath and his daughter were upholding a longstanding tradition where they shop together on Christmas Eve for Mom's present and while doing so, Bob snapped some photos of the interesting historical buildings in downtown Calumet.

Great shots Bob!! By Gary W. Long (Gary_in_co) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 07:39 am: Great shots. They look like the old hand-colored post cards of 100 years ago. By Janie T. (Bobbysgirl) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 07:44 am: Beautiful and stylish buildings built in an era like none other. By Alex "UP-Goldwinger" (Alex) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 07:48 am: Nice to see older buildings with character, maintained. There is way too much tearing down and rebuilding going on these days. By Allen W. Philley (Allen) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 08:29 am: Cherish these older buildings while we can. A few remain in good original character and in use. A few remain in use while having modern facelifts. Some unoccupied will slowly fall. We don't pay much attention when a building slips away. But look how many are gone since the 1960's and a few more just ready and waiting to fall. I do enjoy these images. By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 08:53 am:
I agree with you, Alex. By sometimesyooper (Nancyd) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 09:48 am:
Love those old buildings in Calumet. I agree with maintaining By Dr. Nat (Drnat) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 10:06 am:
St. Anne’s was built in 1900 by Prendergast and Clarkson Company of Chicago. It ceased serving as a church in 1966. By kay Moore (Mskatie) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 11:20 am: Oh how I love these type of old buildings. It makes me sick even today when I shop or have appointments in our buildings in Sterling. To think of all the beautiful homes and buildings torn down for parking lots etc. These treasures make me think of beautiful elderly women. All the wrinkles and changes just show off the life they have lived. May we save as many as we can to treasure one by one. By below the bridge (Wolterdr) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 02:07 pm:
The one in the middle has the arch that looks By Ken ja Mimi from da UP (Kenjamimi) on Thursday, January 2, 2014 - 11:16 pm: I noticed it, too, 'below the bridge'. The same kind of arch as the Italian Hall had. Those old buildings have character, it's' a shame when they get demolished.
