RogerDuke Posted January 7, 2023 Report Share Posted January 7, 2023 That's too bad. How long did you live there? Are they building something new there? Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lived there from my birth 1987-2001. Lived in 10 Delmar then moved over into 6. Lived in 6 from the time of the move over from 10 up to 2001. They're talking about having a park there. They want to hopefully save some of the homes and turn them into some sort of museum. Hobie Hartkins and RogerDuke 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipper Duke Posted January 9, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 We moved out of 10 Delmar into 6 Delmar Halloween 1988. I was 1 year old. We lived in 6 from the time I was 1 up until I was 14 in 2001. RogerDuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skipper Duke Posted September 13, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 I feel sad. Took a drive thru my ol' neighborhood Campbell Ohio.Everything is gone in my old neighborhood. All this is gone now. My childhood apartment, my 2 schools I attended. 8 other different apartment buildings there are gone. Tear down actually started 11 years ago. But they only just got around to our building this past January 2023. Ours stood vacant for 22 years before tear down. September 2001- January 2023 ours stood after we moved out. Nothing but a memory now all of it. At least we took some pictures of them before tear down. Don't have any pictures of the schools though. The apartment buildings are now only a memory, the schools too. RogerDuke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerDuke Posted September 13, 2023 Report Share Posted September 13, 2023 Sorry to hear that. People do get attached to buildings. I'm still upset the Dukes Georgia farmhouse came down. Skipper Duke 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skipper Duke Posted November 10, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Hey y'all. Mom and I drove by Delmar today, and I got a piece of the red tile roof that was left behind in clean up. I have a souvenir from Delmar Ave now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
