Carmi's Water Tower is as unique as the architecture you find while driving both the main and backstreets. The intersection across from the City Hall is a delight to see in the Spring. Garden statues and bird houses show civic pride and interest in attracting both wildlife and visitors. Residents have found ways to blend their garden pieces into their landscapes. Many fine examples of tastefully organized lawns can be found.
Residents are into attracting more than just visitors.
This church has put out the welcome to birds in order to add additional color from nature. Yellow is one of the more widely used colors by nature during Spring. The residents have given nature a boost by planting various plants that carry on the yellow theme. Great old historical homes can be found on many of the side streets leading off from the business district. Manicured lawns is what you keep seeing to remind the visitor that this town takes pride in how it looks to the passerby.
