Worthington schools restructuring only affects middle school students and then not even most middle school students.  Just the kids who would now attend one of the four (or five if you count Phoenix) middle schools in the Worthington City School District. McCord Middle School -  Map - 1500 Hard Road, Columbus, OH 43235 Perry Middle School - Map - 2341 Snouffer Road Worthington, OH 43085 The Perry Middle School building on Snouffer Road will still house Phoenix Middle School. Google Maps seems ahead of the game.  Google Maps gave me  1500 Hard Road as the address for Perry Middle School.    The snippet of a Google Map here shows Google identifying Perry's address as 1500 Hard Road, Columbus Ohio 43235 rather than the Snouffer Road address.  Google is identifying the 2341 Snouffer Road as...

The Worthingway neighborhood in Worthington Ohio was built in the early 1960s. A Worthingway map shows streets now in the City of Worthington including  Longfellow, Poe, Hawthorne,  Stevenson, Thackery...  authors names... great authors names.   Other streets if they are writers names they are beyond my literary knowledge, Riley?, Bryant?, Tonbridge and Highgate?   An ad for the Worthingway neighborhood from a Worthington Chamber of Commerce publication from 1964: The Walter T.  Krumm advertisement for NEW homes in Worthingway says the Worthingway neigbhorhood is  north of "Worthington Proper"?  Worthingway and Worthington Estates were out in the country north of Worthington!  The two neighborhoods as well as what is NOW north of them  Olentangy Hills, Ville Charmonte and  Worthington S...

Home Market - Worthington Ohio  - 1941  The photo is from March 1941, it was Lent...  look up to the right of the shop keepers head. "Birds Eye, Lenten Double Values, Haddock..."  Home Market was a grocery store on High Street in Worthington. In a 1964 Worthington Chamber publication on Flickr an ad for Home Market gave the address as 660 High St. Worthington.    660 High St. Worthington Ohio is  Scotties! Worthington Memory a project of the Worthington Historical Society also tells me that the Home Market is the building which was Scottie Mac Beans for years,  now Scotties Coffee and Teas. The photo is from Don O'Brien's Flickr Photostream.  O'Brien grew up on W.Wilson Bridge Rd in the 1930's and 1940's and has a great collection of Worthington photos.  O'Brien identifies the proprieto...
