Due to be demolished in January 2012, this large building still stands. It appears to have closed down in approx. August 2011. A website exists still with details of the hotel: www.smoothhound.co.uk/hotels/foxhotel.html
The hotel appears to have been of sub-standard quality, receiving bad reviews constantly: www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g190762-d191997-r82...
I noticed a comment about doors looking like they had been kicked in, I thought this had happened since the place had closed down as we wondered around!
Built in 1931, this complex of sandstone-clad Art Deco-style buildings at the edge of Amherst, Ohio were designed by architect Frank Wooster Bail and constructed to house terminally ill tuberculosis patients in Lorain County, utilizing easy access to fresh air and ample natural light to help alleviate their symptoms, and being constructed with beautiful details and a warm-colored stone exterior. Following the advent of effective cures for tuberculosis, the building fell out of use for housing people afflicted with the disease, and became a nursing home in 1967, replacing the old Lorain County Home, with a major renovation and addition being carried out on the building in 1979. In 2015, owing to a lack of funding, the nursing home was closed, and the building has since sat vacant, with a proposal to convert it into an addiction treatment center being rejected by Lorain County voters in 2017. The building, as of Spring 2022, was being offered for sale to developers, and was undergoing asbestos abatement at the time. By November 2022, the building had been demolished.

Hohman Tower, once a great way to add composition to a photo is now impossible. The IHB tore it down I wanna say summer of 2011, but it was last year if I am wrong. A Union Pacific train with only 2 SD70M's cruises light past the old tower site on the IHB; about to cross the NS Chicago District.

This old shed has been here for as long as most people can remember. It long ago stopped being habitable for anyone except vagrants and children looking for fun and trouble. Earlier in the year it was demolished and has been replaced with a new building.

These homes are being cleared for the expansion of the Cincinnati Children's Hospital across the street, which will disrupt the lives of those who live in the Avondale neighborhood. These homes were largely constructed in the late 19th Century and early 20th Century, when Avondale was one of the choice neighborhoods for the city's middle class and rich. However, demographic shifts have seen many of these houses become low-income housing, and despite investment in the major institutions in the neighborhood, the residents have seen little change in their situation. The loss of the architectural heritage, along with the lack of mitigation measures for local residents, make the current situation a mess and something that needs to be changed, but there remain doubts that will happen. I have hope, however, that Avondale can be reinvigorated whilst preserving the historic buildings in the neighborhood and improving the lives of the residents in a meaningful, measurable, and noticeable way.

This building at the corner of Dorchester Avenue and Highland Avenue used to be an integral part of the Cincinnati Streetcar system, serving as a Cable Car Barn for many years in Cincinnati's Mount Auburn neighborhood. Constructed initially in 1882 with a local sandstone facade, the building suffered a major fire in 1892, leading to its reconstruction out of brick into its current form. The Romanesque Revival-style building is one of only a handful of buildings left that were related to the streetcars that once served the entire city, and is largely intact, though lacking in any apparent use. This building has a lot of potential for adaptive reuse, and is worth a look by local preservationists and restoration-minded developers.
This building underwent a full emergency demolition after it partially collapsed during a winter snowstorm in February 2021. At the time, it was undergoing stabilization by the Hamilton County Landbank, which, unfortunately, did not come soon enough.
In 1975, a modern steel-and-glass retail and restaurant complex called NewMarket opened east of the historic market between Pine and Lombard Streets. The center struggled to attract customers and was essentially vacant by 1988. An early 1990s revival as a cabaret entertainment district was short-lived. The complex was demolished in 2002 and its site was subsequently redeveloped.
I took these pictures when I lived in the area in 1990. I scanned these from the prints.
Demolished in August 2007. See a more recent picture taken from the same place in 2011 elsewhere in my photostream.

I don't know what building stood here, but it has definitely reached its end.

Completed in 1969, and first occupied in 1970, Octavia Court, Greenock, a 17 storey skyscraper containing 102 flats was demolished in a controlled explosion at 2.30am on Sunday 20 February 2011. It took approximately 4 seconds to turn the building into a pile of rubble. The last resident of the building was rehoused in September 2010. When the site has been cleared of the rubble, work will begin to build 14 homes that will house up to 56 people.
