131 West 9th in 2003. This great home has been a considerable worry as it seem to cycle between save and loss on a continual basis.

The Durbin Flats are a remarkable transformation. Considered unsaveable by many, the property today is a highly desired rental property.

Our historic districts boast several beautiful churchs. This is First Presbyterian.

Formerly 304-308 West 9th, this home was returned to single family in 2004. Great save.

Yet another save. Formerly chopped into apartments, this home is now back to single family.

A well maintained and original four-square. Another save.

This early home is most likely 30-40 years older than it's neighbor at 326 West 9th. Just another great aspect of our districts - variety.

One of the few true Queen Anne style homes left in the districts.
