last week’s Photo Challenge was posted 2 days before UN Day.
The image showed United Nations headquarters, taken decades ago. (Click here to see.)
That was easy. The hard part was figuring out where in Westport it hangs.
I did not give credit to the reader who sent it in: Lisa Wexler.
That might have given the answer away. She’s Westport and Weston’s probate judge. She’s also host of a popular daily interview show on WICC.
You can see the UN photo not in her radio studio. But it is very visible to anyone entering Room 102 at Town Hall: The Probate Court hearing room.
Susan Iseman knew exactly where. Barbara Sherburne guessed “somewhere in Town Hall.”
I also noted that the photo was personally autographed. Susan nailed it: U Thant,
The third secretary-general of the United Nations signed it on June 28, 1969, in honor of jUNe Day. It was a gift to the town of Westport.
We’re back to 2023 for this week’s Photo Challenge. If you know where in Westport you’d see this, click “Comments” below.

Donut Crazy at the Saugatuck train station! The other side of the wall says “donuts” in the same light-up letters which might have given away the photo! (It also looks like they should replace some of the bulbs in the letters!)
