I hate to say that I don't remember which ones it was. I noticed a blurb about one recently (the Carver?) that was being looked at for renovation. Also, I saw that there was some renovation going on in Woodlawn. There are some great buildings still there that need to be saved. (That was my neighborhood. I remember going to the Krystal, the 5&10, the Rexall drug store, Nick's [which sold comic books], Hill's Grocery, and other places which were already old by the 50's.) Even the neighborhood where I grew up is starting to be revived. We lived in a Craftsman style home in Woodlawn Highlands that was built almost 100 years ago. Back then, it was just "old." Now it's a "classic."
