Built in 1831, the Worthington Inn served meals for as low as a dime, and an overnight stay cost just 25 cents. The restaurant just reopened this summer after a seven year closure. #ThenAndNow
On this now-vacant lot, The Dell Restaurant stood. It opened in the '20s, became a jazz bar in the '70s, and became Carabar, a legendary local rock venue, in the 2000s.
It was demolished in 2018 to make way for highway developments.
It’s often mistaken for a church – but this downtown Columbus building was actually a post office, dedicated by President William Taft in 1912.
Today, the historic building is home to a law office at the corner of Third and State Streets.

The oldest house in the county still on its original foundation, built around 1807, was also Franklinton's first post office.
It's still standing on Gift Street, after 200+ years.
Rumor has it, the bird wanted to check out a copy of "The Raven" but settled on "The Maltese Falcon" instead
Free idea: bring a library book to the job interview to show off your natural curiosities, love for learning, and ability to return things on time (some of you)
