Thanks for this video! I did not know of this place. I’m a KC resident and will definitely be visiting!

Nice aquarium

9 years ago i was part of this lovely campus . i really miss the old time when i was student at the IEP🥹🥹

I may want to visit there!

You quickly showed the Watermark Book store, it was once one of the best book stores in the region. Wide selection of books and it had atmosphere.

Thanks

What a serene, nice and quiet town!

Looks like a very nice small town! 🙂 Love the old gas stations with the vintage pumps and signs! Way cool. 🤩

Born and raised in Belleville ❤

The fly's eye dome was seriously damaged in a tornado that struck in May 2023

In my hometown. My favorite museum. I go each time I am in town.

I used to pick up Atlatle Points and Arrow Points in the feilds around the area when i was a kid. We Chopped Cotton in the summer so we were always out there, after a rain or a few days after they turn off the irrigation systems is always the best time to walk the rows. We found lots of the Poverty Point Objects that are on display, my cousins and i helped build the small overlook replica of the mounds one summer.

Fort Wayne is a beautiful little secret city, and we want to keep it that way.

I went high school there for 4 years. Graduated in 1958. It seems like a long time ago in one way and then in another way it kinda seems like just a few years ago. Time really flys.

I've lived in Newton for 71 years. The building that is the 5/6 grade school was Santa Fe middle school in the 80's and was Newton Hi School before that when I graduated from there, You missed Historic Lindley Hall on the North side of this building. Next to Lindley Hall was the previous Santa Fe Jr. High School. You walked right by but missed Anderson;s Book Store in operation by the same family for over 125 years. Bethel College is in North Newton, not Newton. The old courthouse was where the new court house sits, it was never the sight of the Santa Fe Middle Division Offices. That building is at 5th and Oak diagonal from the carriage factory and is now used for Newton City Offices. The building South of the train engine was Axtell Christian Hospital. You missed the Warkentin home on first street and the Chisholm trail crossings. Good for you for catching the Carriage factory. My home was built by the same architect who built the depot. It is an Amtrac station that saw tens of thousands of troops go through in WWll. Beneath it are tunnels under the tracks and under main street to the West where the Railroad had a laundry. Much more about Newton's bloody cowboy days has been suppressed to shake the image it had. My family moved to the Newton area in 1874 just after Newton became a town. The old Carnegie Library just South of the Warkentin mill is now the home of the Historic Society. They could have been a great help to you, but you provide a decent introduction.

We'd park at the high end of town so we could walk downhill by the shops.

I used to live here and miss the holidays there so much! Unfortunately because of the times this years leave a little sadness as not lit up like it used to be❤❤❤❤❤

I currently live in Onawa and it's a nice quiet town and I feel safe living here.The people are friendly but groceries are expensive due to the town only having one grocery store and nothing else close by.

I Went there about a month ago. Fantastic place and even met Crazy Legs on down the Route. It was a really good day on Route 66.

I must have had "inner music" when I was a student in 1994 as a University freshman. The walk alone in this videographed segment is eerie.

I grew up in Meeker which 14 miles south of Chandler.

On our channel we have investigated several places in Waverly, IA. The Ira sturdevant house( one of Waverly's surviving home), a poor farm and the Bremer County Historical society. If you are interested check us out! Let us know if you have any other locations that we may be interested in.

Why is everything all torn up downtown? What a mess!

Thank you for your video man, I still live here, and Virginia has changed a lot, they've even built a portion of a path across Silver lake.

Ty I miss living there in the 70s

what phone of camera did you use??

Went there almost 20 yrs ago. Man, it was way tooo cold in winter

I live there and it’s really old but beautiful in its own ways :)

That was a great video and tour of downtown. Would love to see a walking history of the south end of St Joe on your channel someday.

I grew up in Orangeburg in the 70's. Really sad to see the downtown area so rundown. Crime has gotten so bad.

I used to live in Neosho Mo for a few years, It does have a lot of pretty scenery other than just Big Spring Park, There is also the other park with a small creek & Baseball field. I also still have various family members that still live there.

No cuts, no cheesy commentary, 10/10 experience almost like I'm there myself. I wish you paused on the plaques though

The first house you show was my great grandmothers home. It is now the Chamber of Commerce!!!

❤J.A.P.T.❤❤

insha'Allah

So beautiful and peaceful.

a kool looking town

I would like to have seen Bob Dole's childhood home.

How much it's cost

The Hermann Wurst Haus has the best bacon I've ever eaten. And I've eaten a lot of bacon.

Seems like kind of a quiet town to have a hard rock cafe in it

Was climbing the hill fun?

Thanks for this tour. It is nice to see the old alma mater in this format.

Im 64 now i lived there in 1978 age 17 .lived way back in the hills south of town in the woods. Was a migrent woker in the tomato fields and helped milk cows . I lived in a 2×4 canves hut . HaD a small cave on the property .when it was hot i wood sleep in a cave there loved it .

Once again a great video of you. I really enjoyed watching 😀

The Strang Line railway was gone before my time, but I remember the lumberyard in and around the old car barn. I'd collect treasure from their scrap bin, take it home and hammer things together. I built forts, bike ramps, treehouses - all kinds of fun.

I used to live there. Lovely town.

Thank you for posting this!

What street are you on?
