This 2002 Silver Winner of the Midwest Design Award is a perfect example of maintaining the integrity of the original home while making it modern and breezy. Formerly a home plus carriage house-they have converted this through the effects of a breezeway to tie the two areas together creating a great master retreat & family/study room while. With a backyard designed for entertaining, what's not to love?

I think we all sweated off a few pounds working on the Tot Lot this morning! As you know, the kid-sized park on James and Adams was sorely in need of renovation. The privacy fence especially was weathered and vandalized. Trees and stumps needed removing. The wrought-iron sign and the swing sets needed paint. South Park decided to show it some love. Here's the first article we wrote about it on May 12th. Plans had been in the works weeks before that. With the determined leadership from Amy Kennedy and 100 volunteer hours in tear-out labor we are making great progress. South Park has since qualified for a $2,000 Mini-Grant from the City of Dayton based on the physical improvements we are contributing and the devotion of our volunteers. Our next step is putting up the new fence--and perhaps a few more nice touches after that, we'll see. Please make it the destination of your next neighborhood walk. Mary Jo invites you to harvest some herbs from under the sign. And the little vegetable bed is very happy this year thanks to all the rain. Enjoy!]]> http://historicsouthpark.org/?feed=rss2&p=1215 0 http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1178 http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1178#comments Sat, 10 Jul 2010 19:00:36 +0000 Jaydee http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1178 http://historicsouthpark.org/?feed=rss2&p=1178 0 http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1172 http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1172#comments Sat, 10 Jul 2010 15:22:11 +0000 Jaydee http://historicsouthpark.org/?p=1172 South Park couldn't be prouder of our very own Brent Johnson and Joshua Stuckey, for all they've done to revive and promote the neighborhood, for their successful ventures that have added hugely to the City's vibrancy and for their AIDS philanthropy. Their energy and creativity have been a bright spot for many years now, as has their belief in the potential of Dayton. So we are delighted to share the news that their renowned and successful salon, Square One, which they run with partner Doug Henderson, is expanding into Columbus and adding 20 new jobs to the region! And, we hasten to add, many of their employees also live in Dayton historic districts! They set an inspiring example for the rest of us who are considering investing, or are currently investing, in downtown and creating business models based on unique experiences and outstanding service, that succeed beautifully.
