​

Above is a rare old scene of the Hardy Hotel in West Point, Hardin County, Kentucky, ca. 1900. Guests were waiting for the train at this railroad hotel which was owned by the Hardy family. The railroad station used by the Illinois Central Railroad and The Louisville, Henderson, & St. Louis Railroad was located across the street from the hotel.​

[Creeker]

That's really cool. Isn't that where Rhonda's restaurant is now?

 

[Kyboy]

It's across the tracks from Rhonda's. I can say that the hotel looks exactly as it does in this picture. Hasn't changed in 100 years.

 

[Creeker]

Ahhh. I got my buildings mixed up. Now i feel dumb living here and not recognizing the Star. Still great food either way.
