Graffiti is very much prevalent over in Europe, but it's rapidly cleaned up it seems. When I did some traveling over there, I was amazed at the _lack of_ graffiti, but the guide told us that the owners have penalties for not cleaning up marred surfaces. I don't know how true that is, but it would explain the lack of graffiti over there. I think owners should be responsible for cleaning up graffiti if it is on their property. The city and volunteer groups can only do so much. If property owners take pride in (or are forced to maintain) the appearances of their property, the city as a whole benefits.

Some different angles of Cincy than I'm used to. Very cool.

Wow, I've never heard of Georgetown Ohio before. Looks pretty nice!

Of course they're off because of all the hard freezes in early November south of US 30. Not. I've always wondered if there is an actual cliff in Marble Cliff. I mean... it's Columbus. I believe the area used to be a quarry, from which the stones for the State House were procured... I could be completely wrong though. I always enjoyed that little neighborhood :) Those autumn colors are looking BEAUTIFUL.

If I hadn't read the title of this thread I'd have though you were doing a photo thread on Easton! ;)

Yeah, I don't think OSU is looking past any games this year after what happened with Florida in the Championship. This team is on a mission.

OSU's crew team won't be pleased about the Olentangy narrowing near the Drake Union.

How many county seats do you have left to visit?

Poor little California... has anyone else seen that hood? It's a bunch of trailers on the river. Not what I expected when I saw "yacht club" on the map!

That cladding in the third to last photo is downright scary.

Great season so far... two more games to go!

Damn, that was built fast!

Exciting times in good ol' Columbus... now get that damn streetcar started!

The HNIC blesses us with another wonderful photo set.

Played like #1 against Penn St :)

Yay! This thread has been needed for quite a while. Good work KJP! My suggestion would be to add a neighborhood listing, with maybe a short description about each.

Pittsburgh never disappoints.

Is it a rule that advertisements for morning radio shows have to be 100% ridiculous?

I would like to point out that the OSU defense allowed ZERO touchdowns today... defense wins championships :)

I don't think he was trying to recreate Venice, per se, but he was inspired by it.

So they're liberals, but don't value your freedom to speech. Interesting breed over there.

Detroit = Quebec?

I just spoke to Abbot, and his response was "When's the last time X master planned a community, eh?!" Don't shoot the messenger.

Welcome to Venice, an eclectic neighborhood of Los Angeles, South of Santa Monica and North of Marina Del Rey. Venice was designed by Abbott Kinney to resemble it's namesake in Italy. Enjoy!
