I actually visited the park a couple weeks back and really liked it. All kinds of historic buildings. I am in Dayton regularly now that I have friends living there, I usually stay with them every other week. I will probably go back sometime and get pictures of these buildings. Deeds Barn- "Within the walls of Deeds Barn, Charles Kettering, Colonel Edward Deeds and other members of the "Barn Gang" spent many late nights upstairs working on inventions. Some of these inventions included the automobile self-starter engine and the ignition system created in 1912, which eliminated the need for "crank" engine starters." Miller House- built in 1806 and is the last remaining house from the Watervliet Shaker community. It will have Shaker artifacts. Hetzel House- old summer kitchen formerly located on Stroop Road. It will become a center for baking and weaving activities. Newcom Greer House- early residence from East Dayton. It will be moved next to the William Morris House to serve as a comparison between an urban and a rural dwelling in the 19th century. http://www.tcnewsnet.com/main.asp?SectionID=16&SubSectionID=261&ArticleID=150889&TM=61935.22

Better then Detroit's problem of not doing things at all!

I like!

These 3 buildings on Main caught my eye when I was in Dayton recently. They look nice on the outside but when I looked in the windows (sorry no pics) it looked terrible. Does anyone know the history of them and what their deal is?

Wapakoneta is the seat of Auglaize County. As of the 2000 Census it had a 9,474 people. It is the birthplace to Neil Armstrong.

Looks nice! My great-grandparents came to the US from Germany and settled in Kendallville.

The DDA voted unanimously to demoish the Lafayette building. Demolition could begin in less then a month :( http://www.detnews.com/article/20090626/METRO01/906260361/1409/METRO/DDA-votes-to-raze-1923-Lafayette-Building

Dequindre Cut Greenway

Troy is the seat of Miami County and has a population of 21,999 (2000 Census).

I already know everyone is going to comment on how dead it is, it was about a quarter to 9am.

I really want to visit Minneapolis one day.

Some great buildings!

Here is a little article about 6 projects that have been approved for brownfield tax credits. I'm glad to see the Forest Arms apartments on there. There was a big fire a while a back http://www.flickr.com/photos/vanessamiller/2247376485/# I'm surprised to see the that the Scott Castle (James Scott Mansion) will be turned into apartments and condo's. I figured it would just sit there and get demolished one day. http://www.flickr.com/photos/detroitderek/2281128266/# I'm curious to know what 7 building near Eastern Market are being turned into townhomes and apartments.

Lame

What are they doing here? What’s the deal with this place?

^Cool pic, I was in there just recently and got a similar picture. I've been urbexing in the D a lot recently so I have a lot of pictures to post.

the year i was born, 1988

I took these wandering around Belle Isle recently.

Gettysburg College is a private national four-year liberal arts college founded in 1832, adjacent to the famous battlefield. Gettysburg students come from 40 states and 35 countries.

We stopped here to get some gas on the way home from Gettysburg so I figured why not take some pictures in this tiny town of 1,725 (2000 Census).

Very nice, what's the deal with the buildings that only the facades are left of?

Sweet, I think I have an old postcard from Mount Vernon. The town sounds really familiar for some reason.

Our hotel:

Looks like a cool little town. thanks.
