No problem at all about linking, but the old courthouse was actually south of where the Holiday Inn came to be ... notice in this 1929 pic looking southwest showing Montgomery Wards construction that the courthouse was south of where the Holiday Inn came to be located. I don't recall the reason for the demise of the courthouse ... probably part of the Pei Plan demolition stuff, but I'm not sure.
