The city looks beautiful but... um, where is everybody?

These shots were taken on a Friday morning around 10am. It wasn't completely dead as there were some people walking around.

columbus, ohio in july. the photos look kind of steamy. it was probably just too stinking hot outside.

i was hoping some of our ohio-ans could provide some commentary on these shots...

i was only in columbus once. 1974 or 75. too drunk to remember much. except that ohio state buckeyes beat michigan that weekend. party.

that's funny, my biggest memory of columbus is also getting shitfaced for the ohio state-michigan game. buckeyes won that time as well.

it's embarassing, but i think this is the experience that many ohioans have had with columbus. seems nice, though.

what about cincinnati, ohio. ever get shitfaced in cincinnati ?

i have family in anderson township (a west-side suburb of cinci), so i have spent a lot of time there. however, i've managed to stay relatively sober during most of my time there.

there was one time, though, when we were celebrating my grandpa's 75th birthday at my aunt and uncle's nice big suburban house in anderson. i drank one or two cocktails too many, then initiated a diving contest with my brother in the backyard pool. we got to doing some pretty radical stuff, but then, well.... let's just say i got a little too excited, and ended up with a badly bruised and bloody nose!

high street is great shopping. record shops, head shops, hookah bars, bars, OSU bookstores and chinesse food

high street should be called long street. It's real long. columbus is pretty as far as i've seen

I'm from Columbus... I usually describe my city as "unexpectedly nice" to outsiders. These pictures flatter High Street, nice work! And yeah, no one's out because it's probably 90+ and super-humid.
