Posted August 29, 200618 yr The downtown photos are from May 2005 and the final two from November '05. Did CMH-Bolton over downtown in my rental Skyhawk. From November: overflying CMH at midfield: Landing 28L: EDIT: reduced file sizes for faster loading.

August 30, 200618 yr Awesome photos! Does anyone know where the airport extension will be? Will it be a new building or expand off the current one somehow?
August 30, 200618 yr Can I go up in the plane!!!! Too poor to fly right now. This flying shit is expensive and dangerous. :cry: Does anyone know where the airport extension will be?

August 31, 200618 yr ^Corp Hdqrts of Longaberger in Newark. They make pretty classy/expensive baskets which were really popular in the late 90's, but now the company is struggling financially. I think their factory and Homestead (country shopping center thing) are in Dresden.
August 31, 200618 yr If they go out of business I don't know who they plan ot sell that commercial building when it looks like a damn basket.
September 1, 200618 yr The first picture makes Columbus look really small because it looks like it just kind of stops.
September 4, 200618 yr I love how COSI is integrated into the riverfront....well done :clap: And then look right next door at Vet's Memorial to see how not to do it. Awesome photos! Does anyone know where the airport extension will be? Will it be a new building or expand off the current one somehow? There are presentations on the website...much better than I could describe it! http://www.columbusairports.com/construction/ layouts... http://www.airportsites.net/CMH%2DEIS/Pages/Proposed_Project.htm

I almost thought is was in Columbus, TY-G-d it's not...
September 4, 200618 yr Quote from: UncleRando I love how COSI is integrated into the riverfront....well done Quote from: Brewmaster And then look right next door at Vet's Memorial to see how not to do it. Whaddya mean? Vet's Memorial offers plenty of waterfront parking. VERY Detroit.
September 4, 200618 yr Was that sarcasm? I just think COSI's building looks really cheap, and I've been in there...they don't really use much of the internal space. The riverfront isn't that bad, it just isn't nearly as scenic as Cincinnati.
September 5, 200618 yr ^ The city makes great use of the waterfront space during festivals. They set up a stage at the base of the huge steps so everyone can see the bands play. The pathways are lined with vendors too. It looks cool from the air too! :)
September 5, 200618 yr Equate Genoa Park (COSI's "park") with Sawyer Point in Cincinnati. Both are horrendous spaces with good usage of steps going to the river. "You don't just walk into a bar and mix it up by calling a girl fat" - buildingcincinnati speaking about new forumers
September 16, 200618 yr Really good photos of downtown. The riverfront is much improved over the last few years, and should look even better with the new bridges and the infill around the arena. From the air you can clearly see the hodge-podge that CMH is, like all but the newest airports. I never understood the spatula shaped parking garage exit with all the tool booths.
September 19, 200618 yr Gorgous pictures. It's about time someone posted some aireal photos of the city. It's gourgeous, but can do without all the parkings lots. More buildings, I say! I love the basket building, I think it is one of the most unique buildings in the country. Not a huge fan of COSI or Vets Memorial. COSI kind of creates more of a wall that acts as a barrior between Franklinton and The Scioto River. Vets Memerial i think should be torn down and replaced with a new Vets Memorial Baseball Field. It would be so awesome to go kyaking in the river on game day and collect the home run balls!
