Lost in the Midwest: Dunbar, IA.

Dunbar is a community or populated place located in Marshall County. Like many small communities in New Mexico, the church is the only public building. In the southwest, the church is the center of a central plaza. This provides a feeling of unity and closeness. In Dunbar, the church is located on the top of the highest point in town. This sense of place is one of isolation and power. (click on image to enlarge)
