Very interesting Pilot.

Whilst researching our family tree I found my OH ancestor had a bakery on Thrift Street and I think it's in one of those pics

Great photo's Pilot. Thanks for posting them. If the walls could talk....just imagine the stories they could tell.
Such a shame that so much history around the river has been replaced with bland, lifeless buildings.
