Chillicothe Street North · Scioto County Public Library Local History Digital Collection

Title: Chillicothe Street North
Description: The image on the left is looking north on Chillicothe Street from Third (3rd). In about the center of the photograph is a three-story building with dormer windows on the roof. This is the Grand Opera House built in 1895. It suffered damage from a fire in 1914 and was rebuilt to be used by the Kresge dime or ten cent store for many years. The date "1890" is a typo error.
The one on the right is the same scene in 1980 when the Kresge store looks white.
