Let's see your area's historical markers, Bldg estb. markers and other identifying markers... anything with dates, names, historical significance or interest. Photos if possible or links! National or local. This is for historical or simply dating plaques for bldg establishments. I hope the mods will leave this in OT!

Here's one from a road near my house...
