As promised, I have photos of my office building in LaGrange. If you aren’t familiar, my office in LaGrange is in the beautiful Abbott, Jordan and Koon Building. This building was once a JC Penneys. I think it is near 100 years old. Wayne Abbott, the owner of the building, restored and remodeled it. It has a great central space that Wayne would like to rent out for events after hours.
It’s a gorgeous spot and is perfect for events up to 125. Being right on Main Street and a block down from LaFayette Square, you couldn’t ask for more. There is even a parking deck behind the building, so you are never in need of extra parking.
So, last week, I had one of my favorite people come out and photograph the building so that I could put together some marketing materials. The super-cool Robert Smith of FlipFlopFoto.com in Opelika came out and worked his magic. Robert has a very artful eye. And he and his wife Pam are extremely involved in the historical preservation of downtown Opelika, Ala. So, he is more than familiar with the character of a building like the AJK. I think he did a great job of letting the building shine. A few of my favorite shots are posted here. By the way, go visit his site – flipflopfoto.com and their blog.

A shot of the storefront. Main Street stores behind it.
Front entry. I love the recessed entry of the building. You could do a lot with it for an event.
Inside the building. This angle is taken from the back of the main space looking towards the front door.
