Summary[edit]

Description I got to Lower Price Hill a bit too late to document these two historic three-floor brick buildings, a walk-up type apartment and a mixed use building that once housed a grocery. Constructed on State Avenue in the late 19th Century, these buildings are similar to others found in the neighborhood, but had a distinct individuality that has been lost, with all the building materials destined for the landfill. The buildings had been neglected before their abandonment, and left open to the elements, with the roof compromised and upper-floor windows missing, which left the building vulnerable to weathering and rot, which has led to its demolition. At least half a dozen other buildings exist in Lower Price Hill that are in a similar state to how these were before their demolition, and urgently need to be stabilized and secured, with new roof membranes and boards being needed over the windows to ensure their survival as the neighborhood sees some new attention from young people who are moving to the city, as well as to secure possible future low-income housing to ensure the neighborhood doesn't gentrify and become a wealthy enclave.
