Welcome to the Southwest Observer's new feature - iWitnessed. Every week or so we'll post a close-up photo of local importance ranging from schools to churches to businesses to historical landmarks.

In return, we'll be asking our registered users to try to figure our just what the heck it is that they're looking at. At the end of each contest we will reveal the full photo along with a couple tidbits (just to let ya know that we're up on our neighborhood history as well as the next guy).

A hint will accompany each photo ... but don't think too hard about it. After all, the answer might be in your own backyard.
