Other Information

Photos 3-7 are a series of photos courtesy of the Ohio Dept. of Transportation. Photo 3 dated 1947 shows the area is undeveloped farmland with the house and barn noted. In Photo 4 (1974) the building circled in blue appears and is now (2022) The Grove City Drive Thru. The series of available aerial photos progresses to 2011 which shows that the house and barn are now gone and the entire area redeveloped into commercial use. Photo 8 (Google satellite image) is provided for coordination with the ODOT photos and used to pinpoint the exact location of where the barn once stood. In Photos 3-7 red circles designate the house location, the blue circles the location of the Grove City Driv Thru and the yellow circles the barn location. In Photo 8 the barn location is designated by the red pin and that is used to determine the address and the coordinates.

Where to find it

*GONE (razed and removed)* Along Broadway, in Grove City (just southwest of Columbus). South of I-270 by about 1.3 miles. The barn was on the right side of the highway headed southwest. One end. Black Barckground. Greatly faded prior to removal.
