The main street architecture reminds me of a lot of the old west towns out in California.

Wow, very nice thread.

Pleasant indeed!

It seems like DT Youngstown keeps improving as time goes on. Nice to see that. Thank for the photos!

:clap: Wow, all the county seats in one year! Nice job! :clap: I have to admit though... this Columbus thread is a bit depressing. Maybe it's just the weather.

The traffic is definately a pain in the ass. I've learned how to deal with it for the most part. The key is to live in a neighborhood where you can walk to most of the things you need, and not have to drive to far to work. Also living near to major bus lines is helpful. If you're going to drive a significant distance, do it on off hours or use back streets when you hit freeway congestion. The back streets usually flow pretty well. They are working slowly to improve the rail system too (Expo Line) which will eventually help.

In response to Cincinnatus, LA is very difficult to grasp without spending a substantial amount of time here. I was initially drawn to living here by the mix of nice year round weather, the beach culture, and the urban environment... the mountains were just an added bonus. As I've lived here and have gotten to know the city better and explore many facets of it, I've come to appreciate the diversity of people that exists here, the randomness of the neighborhoods, and the urban density that isn't aparent from aerials of the city. It's a love it or hate it city, that's for sure. The city has many flaws... just like all of us do. I however, have fallen into the love with LA!

This is the last piece of the puzzle in connecting DT to OSU with continuously nice areas. Very important. Kroger getting redeveloped is a major milestone.

Good to finally see some success coming to the Crew. If I know Columbus... that attendance will shoot up really quickly if they keep up their winning ways.

EXACTLY!

Booo! That's like me saying, "Kentucky, Ohio with less teeth!" Anywho... nice pics as always Chris! Always a pleasure seeing your photos from LA... or anywhere else for that matter.

I like the atmosphere of the photos since the weather is dreary. Trump's new tower has come pretty far along!

When I would walk from my apartment in Harrison West to the Lennox Town Center I would also make a point to go through this neighborhood. It is a very pleasant area indeed.

There's some fairly tall building there!

Quite the variety of home styles!

Awesome!!!

Santa looks like a real bad ass. Library and post office look nice. What's the story with all the quaker references? Quaker Foundation... Quaker Theater...

That Philadelphia set was awesome. Was a lot of that around Society Hill and South Street?

That game last night was insane! What a final!

Buckeyes peaked too late... imagine if they had made it to the NCAA tourney and played like this. I would think they could have at least made the Sweet 16.

That doesn't look bad, not bad at all!

Not a bad set at all. Love that first photo!

Best pizza is either Hounddogs or Rotolos. Massey's? Please... that's insulting.

I perceived that article as saying, "things are looking pretty good, but we can't slack off now and let some loose ends prevent this from materializing." Totally a practical way of thinking.

The building in that second photo looks like a real fixer upper opportunity.
