  1. I can't wait for future updates! The 300 block is between Rhea and Gray Avenues. While it had a bunch of houses, the 400 block only had eight last time I checked: 401, 405, 421, 425, 402, 408, 420, and 424. That's low enough for me to rattle off the numbers! 8-) Granted, it's more than the 500 block between Gray and Webster Avenues, which had none at all. :lol:

    The Kings Island episode of The Brady Bunch was called "The Cincinnati Kids"! It was my favorite one where they took a trip. In another episode of The Brady Bunch Alice said, after the "bunch" had come in with a bunch of groceries, "This is enough food to feed Cleveland, Ohio!" I think it was from the episode "The Grass Is Always Greener" where Carol and Mike switched roles for a day, with Carol helping the boys with baseball practice and Mike helping the girls with their (mostly Marcia's) cooking project.

    Oh, and Ohio was referenced not once, but twice, on that ABC gem called The Wonder Years! In one episode Kevin asked Norma about her family, and she replied that one of her relatives was from Ohio. In another episode from the 1990-91 season, Jack had a business trip to Cincinnati, and he replied that it rained.

    Actually, there was a band called Champaign in the early 1980s with hits like "How 'Bout Us" and "Try Again." And, yes, they came from Champaign, Illinois.

    There is also an episode of Family Matters (I LOVED that show!) at the beginning of the 1993-94 season where Laura had cheerleading tryouts in Cincinnati, and Steve drove her down there in his Isetta ("That's what I said-a! Heh-heh-heh (snort! snort!)") and they wound up at a fleabag motel. It rained, too, if I'm not mistaken.
  6. Greetings, "inkaelin"! :wave: I currently reside in Dayton, but I spent the first twenty-three years of my life in Hamilton. (I'm thirty-four today.) These galleries of some Hamilton neighborhoods are a huge trip down memory lane! Thank you very much! Oh, and just for the record, I was born at Fort Hamilton-Hughes Hospital and lived the first eight years of my life not too far from Highland Park in the 300 block of Sherman Avenue. Then we moved to Random Hills, kind of out in the sticks (at least it was in 1980!). Is Sherman Avenue considered to be part of any named neighborhood?
