Today, this building holds a trendy cocktail bar, fitness studio, creative offices, and more. In 1928, it was the Open Air School for students with tuberculosis, offering them large windows, sunlight, and natural play areas far away from the city center.

Built in 1831, the Worthington Inn served meals for as low as a dime, and an overnight stay cost just 25 cents. The restaurant just reopened this summer after a seven year closure. #ThenAndNow

On this now-vacant lot, The Dell Restaurant stood. It opened in the '20s, became a jazz bar in the '70s, and became Carabar, a legendary local rock venue, in the 2000s. It was demolished in 2018 to make way for highway developments.

It’s often mistaken for a church – but this downtown Columbus building was actually a post office, dedicated by President William Taft in 1912. Today, the historic building is home to a law office at the corner of Third and State Streets.

Trinity Episcopal Church anchors both scenes, the oldest building in this image (1869). Far in the distance, the Seneca Hotel still stands (1917).

One reason libraries can't get audiobooks:
shauna (@wednesdaysadums) profile pictureshauna@wednesdaysadumsSep 27
if dublin library could help me understand how ebooks and audiobooks can possibly be ‘on loan’ till january next year that’d be great because ITS NOT A PHYSICAL OBJECT??? what difference does it make if two people have a file at the same time i’m so confused

The oldest house in the county still on its original foundation, built around 1807, was also Franklinton's first post office. It's still standing on Gift Street, after 200+ years.
