WOOD TRANSOM DOORS

ANDERSON SOUTH CAROLINA

Anderson, South Carolina is a beautiful upstate city with one of those rare gems of small-town America; a Carnegie Library.

Andrew Carnegie donated a slew of these opulent structures to lucky communities throughout the country in the later years of his life, and their architecture is varied and rich.

What caught my eye about this particular building was the front doors. They seemed overly tall for the building....

But upon closer examination, I saw the transom doors, separate entities of their larger twins below. I didn't get a chance to see them from the inside, so I have no idea if there are actual glass transoms behind them.

 

They are the only wood transom doors I've ever seen.
