Anybody got any pics of this project

You can see it from the highway.  No I haven't taken any photos. 

I drive by there about once a week.  It's looking pretty close to being complete, but it's set so far off Sharon Rd, it's kind of hard to see what all is being constructed.  I did notice that they are installing new metal pole street lights, and it looks like they might be under grounding the power lines on that stretch of Sharon, and possibly widening the sidewalks too.  I wonder what they're going to do with the old high school.  That is a pretty huge site literally adjacent to 75.

It seems that the classroom buildings are complete (jr and high school), but the athletic center in between is still under construction.

The old high school will become a athletic field.  I was wondering why I can't put up any pics. Anybody else having trouble putting pictures up on this site.

^How could they possibly need another athletic field?? Sounds like a huge waste of valuable real estate.

 

They're probably just trying to copy Sycamore.  Their high school compound is surrounded by acres and acres of fields which are very rarely used.

I think it's just going to be a new baseball and soccer fields.  I think they will use it.[/img]

A buddy of mine used to joke about driving past there when school let out in a convertible to look up girls' skirts as they crossed the overpass.

It was a yawn to those Princeton girls.  They all had done it all by 15.

It may just be the colors, the black and red scheme, but some of those pics make that project look straight out of the 1980's.

The new complex is massive, but I wish they would have either renovated the old high school or built a new building at the same site. The corner of Sharon and Chester now feels so empty, and I think the absence of the highschool has led to increased highway noise in the surrounding area. Also, not very impressed with the interior of the building, given the shots posted above.

 

One interesting development in this area though is a new Hindu temple that is being constructed about two parcels north of Princeton's football stadium. It has 3 little towers in the center, and is quite visible from both Sharon Road and 75. I believe it is the second Hindu temple in the region, though it appears to be much smaller than the one out in Anderson or Clermont County.
