In Richmond the old tobacco warehouses have been turned into apartments and condos. <br />The historic canal has been restored and life is returning to the area.John Bachmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00711433957628649844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-59748404923198721202014-09-27T16:33:28.980-05:002014-09-27T16:33:28.980-05:00Road trip!!!

I'm betting Scott Rohrman will prove himself to be a shrewd businessman for taking advantage of the history in Deep Ellum.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-44407667261380632292014-09-27T13:49:56.504-05:002014-09-27T13:49:56.504-05:00Very exciting news, Dana!

I love the history of these areas and I'm so glad that they aren't all being lost to developers that want to destroy every historical element there is left to enjoy. When I hear names of the jazz musicians I get transported back in time...I LOVE those names and the images they bring to my mind. I'm thrilled for you! I hope I can see it one day.Tina@WhatWeKeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03784869477053139668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-84615746848607293482014-09-27T12:07:28.519-05:002014-09-27T12:07:28.519-05:00Dallas and Fort Worth did plenty of tearing down i...Dallas and Fort Worth did plenty of tearing down in post-World War II years, and if they hadn't, we wouldn't have some of the great mid-century architecture that's here. Progress is good, but in the past decade or two both cities have realized the importance of their historical districts. A tremendous amount of money has been put into revitalizing Fort Worth's downtown area, as well as its historic Stockyards, and now the same is about to be true for Deep Ellum in Dallas. We're very excited to be there again.Dana@Mid2Modhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03055460107477850683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9087940973013594269.post-32273074381223026752014-09-27T08:24:56.039-05:002014-09-27T08:24:56.039-05:00This not only sounds exciting, but it sounds like ...This not only sounds exciting, but it sounds like more cities should follow suit. I am saddened when I read about towns and cities, or even see it first-hand, tear down good old interesting buildings to be replaced with parking lots or new unattractive buildings.Bill Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14649212489891769390noreply@blogger.com
