MRG, I think he was referring to the now gone Sugar Creek pool.

MRG, it is on the west side of Overton Street, south of Kentucky about 100 feet or so.

The southwest corner lot at Overton and Kentucky is actually vacant.

We have a WINNER!! The vacant lots either side of this house are part of its property. This old beaut features some stained glass, pocket doors, and hardwood floors.

Damn!!! "Walked" right past it yesterday on Streetview. Remembered the school to the east and the colorful (and seemingly out of place) "La Casita Apts" on that corner. I guess the vacant lot threw me off as I 360'd each intersetion along KY and when didn't see a house there kept on moving westward, as Horace Greeley advised.

What's the significance of the Mr Dunder? Ohhhh, Dunder Mifflin from The Office?

The MAD photo has the house looking far more robust versus the way it pops up on Google Earth.

Yeah it's a shame the owner hasn't fixed up the place, looks like it can use alot of love.

What was the significance of the house to be photo'd in the first place? Famous resident or just the house itself?


Ok, got it . . Sweet as in Sugar Water as in Creek

Yup, the old girl is showing her age. I posted this one on account'a I lived there for a few years after high school, so it was a semi-famous resident! A buddy of mine owned it, and wanted room-mates to help with the bills. Being a fan of old houses I was happy to oblige. I had the house being built earlier than the public records show. I'll have to recollect where I got my date, and dig up the history on the place.

His family owned the apartments across the street back then. They mainly bought them to run out the riff-raff and restore the place to decency. They refurbed each one and were selective in tenants. That little building holds eight apartments.
