Driving in Columbus, Ohio - 1985 - pt. 2 of 2!!

[@MrMorganQuinn]

I was born at Mount Carmel West seven days before you shot this video. It's really neat to see how things have changed, and how some things stayed the same.

[@chezaugie]

Love the video! Attended OSU from 1975-1979 and also lived on North Campus for a couple of years after that. Even in 1985 the scenery has changed but still remember the many nights spent at The Char Bar!

[@stpmscaitlin]

Lived there 1978 through 1990. Had a band and played at Apollos on High street. Great Times!

[@jamessm4401]

High kinda sucks now. There has been a ton of OSU buy outs. High used to be the sort of red line between campus and the rest of the world. Now OSU has spread out as far East as Summit, as far South as Clintonville, as far north to nearly downtown. I'm not sure about West. All of the local color has kind of been drained by campus sprawl.

baker hall was where i ate when i actually ate in the dorms. i lived in smith hall. and when I was in school (graduated early '98) that pancake house was a oriental food market. i remember when papa joe's burned down.

Wish I could have had a better close up of The Roxy. Saw so many midnight showings there like Surf Nazis Must Die,Toxic Avenger and Evil Dead II.

My father owned University 10th and High and I also lived in an apartment above it for 6 years.

[@TheUsuallSuspect]

I currently attend OSU. I am so suprised at the fact that almost everything looks the same after 23 years.

[@scrubbyjoe1]

i wasnt even born for another 2 months byt i remember when campus looked like that and its funny that things that were new to you are long gone now

[@videoholicreturns]

I pigged out at Gordon's more than once..it was a great place!!! Also ate at that Ihop a lot!

[@twintriode]

Aound this time OSU campus was poppin on the weekends. it would be like spring break from 5th on the south to lane on the north. Gentrification screwed that up....although the smell of rotten dish rags and barf got a bit old too.

[@ColsUnderground]

Love it!

[@videoholicreturns]

@1980Invasiontour That IS funny! I usually take my vacations in October.

[@videoholicreturns]

Where on 8th do you live? My first year down there I lived at Holiday House apartments, corner of 8th and Neil Ave.

[@fredsbar5]

[@JoeMotionVideos82]

[@joshr9417]

That was the bakery for Big Bear, I lived across the street.

[@Xsuprio]

{:) Aww... Big Bear... Still have my little plastic costumer key chain thing.

Thanks for this video of campus, I turned 21 the day after you shot this and came to know the area well. I have a video of the same area I shot in 1988 with perhaps a better camcorder (it wasn't mine) that you might like to watch: /watch?v=wB2Z08za1vI

[@WarThug13]

Why did everyone talk like Marty mcfly?
