I've been asked to put together a photo collage of Middletown. I live in Cinci and was hoping to spend a few weekends up in Middletown wandering around with a camera. Do you guys have any suggestions for local architectural and community interests? I'm looking mostly for local landmarks, neat signs, iconic buildings, etc. Thanks all.

Central and Broad Streets downtown would be a good place to start.

Don't forget the new bike path.

The basketball court at Sunset Park where Jerry Lucas and many notables like Oscar Robertson played pick-up games in the summer- The Manchester where many notables including Presidents stayed. Barnitz Stadium where many a fine football player was groomed for stardom in college and the pros- The lock at Engle's Corner depicting the Miami-Erie Canal that ran down Verity Parkway- Third longest runway in Ohio (is that right??) at Hook Field- what's left of Sorg Paper- Starglow Drive-In on Rt. 25 although it is now a truck trailer storage area- the Liberty hotdog place downtown Central Ave.- check the alleys in the downtown area for old signs on the sides of the buildings.

Prithee, take an image of my abode, as I yearn to list it upon that venerable roll of Historic dwellings, and therefore garner contributions from the tax collector to refurbish it.
