It is located west of downtown. It is only maybe three blocks from the Sciota River and Central H.S.. A lot of the buildings were destroyed due to a flood that hit that area, I can't remember what the date of that was. It was a terrible flood, lots of damage from it. Sometimes you can't believe everything the Historical Society. I will check to see if I can't find out more for you. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
