Oregon Historic District - Dayton , OH

I have been in Dayton, OH many, many times and I am always awaiting the "breakthrough" for the city. But it has yet to come. The downtown is a dead zone and, culturally, Dayton does not have very much to offer. Please prove me wrong and email me TODAY or leave your comments on this BLOG. and I will revise my feelings for the city.

However, there are exceptions to the rule, like the Oregon District in Dayton, OH or the all too well known annual Hamvention

The Oregon Emporium
As it was about 11:30 A.M. or so when we arrived at the Oregon District WE did NOT visit the Blue Moon Restaurant as friends recommended. Instead we went to a small restaurant on the corner the "Oregon Emporium".

I had the/a Tuna sandwich. . . . OK, not so unusual, but then you did not read about the Coke yet they are serving Boylan Sugar Cane Cola (Boylan Bottling Company), which I never had before and I must say the sugar cane in the drink is a hit. The bottle states that they have been selling the product since 1891 . . . I guess I "overlooked" this -fine- product all of my life.

Other notable qualities of this : sidewalk seating available; high speed internet connection available inside the cafe; interesting "people-watching".


And while you are there, stroll around. You will find the friendliest people in that neighborhood. They are willing to chat with you, tell you the history of the neighborhood and invite you to listen to their life story . . . and give you advice where to eat and what to visit.


Here is our rating of the restaurant: (maximum rating in each category ●●●●●)

If you are really serious, like the guys to the left who bought an entire Methodist Church . . . you also may buy property here in this great neighborhood ranging from $195,000 to where would you like to live?
