Its been an abandoned ruin kind of day.
What's left of the runway at Woodford being ripped up to make way for a new road and likely a lot more houses.
I know most of you could care less about a Burger King being demolished, I understand. Its not a huge deal to me either.
But its relevant to me as a neighborhood thing from growing up etc
These old towers which were used by tourists to observe the surrounding countryside are being demolished. It gives me a sad feeling as some people had tried and failed to save them.
I took quick wander a few months ago around my old school that's due to be demolished.

These two unique townhouses are located on Fairmount Avenue atop Knox Hill in Cincinnati’s South Fairmount neighborhood. Originally identical in appearance when constructed around the turn of the 20th Century, the house with the green trim has retained most of its original detailing and ornamentation, while the white trimmed house next to it has had many of its details lost or obscured. Both, however, were covered in asbestos shingles in the mid-20th Century, covering up the original wooden clapboards in order to save on maintenance. Today, both houses appear neglected and vacant, and the one with white trim appears to have been declared unfit for occupation, which worries me a bit, as these two unique houses are an interesting form that I have not seen elsewhere in Cincinnati. The 45-degree bay on the first floor and high level of ornamentation, in my view, are the defining features of these houses, and I would hate to see them lost to neglect.

On the 29th February 2008 I was driving back home from work when I saw this. My old school being demolished. It was raining and the wind was blowing hard so stopped fired off a few shots and jumped back in the car.
South aisle window dating from the postwar reconstruction of the church from the 1950s onwards. The aisle wall was completely demolished by wartime bombing and was thus rebuilt in contemporary style, contrasting with the surviving gothic of the north aisle opposite.
St Maria im Kapitol is one of Cologne's oldest and most significant churches, having an unusual ground plan in that the three apses of the east end all have an aisle or ambulatory encircling them, expanding their girth and giving the church added space for chapels. The church is built on a slope, allowing space for a crypt under the eastern apse.
The church is approached through a cloistered courtyard off the main street and, mostly hidden by other buildings, doesn't assert itself in the way many of it's brethren do. There is no great tower, though one once existed; only it's stump survives at the west end flanked by two squat octagonal turrets that now alone protrude above main roof level.
Though not without some restoration this early Romanesque church remained fairly complete until the bombing raids of 1942 onwards which devastated it. Much of the building collapsed during the bombardment, and the remainder so severely weakened that further sections that initially survived the war (such as the main eastern apse) fell to the ground in the following years.
By the time reconstruction began in the 1950s only some of the outer walls of the apse aisles, the sides of the nave and the shattered west end remained standing, making this one of the most heavily rebuilt churches in the city.
Nonetheless the church retains many treasures from it's prewar days, including medieval sculpture and stained glass and some outstandingly preserved 12th century wooden door panels in the south aisle. The 16th century sculpted choir screen was returned to it's original position and the building reincarnated as a modern version of it's earliest phase, with the eastern apse rebuilt in a simpler form to match those of the transepts.
