Ted G's View of North Ohio..... Urban and Countryside Landscapes and Studies

[SteveL54]

I remember driving over this in the 70's

I've been going through photos from last summer and I came across this one. Why did I take it? Because this is my favorite house in Cleveland and if I was to move back full-time, this is where I'd love to live. It's in what I believe is Ohio City. It's directly across from the backside of St. Ignatius. Not too small, and obviously not too big.... Goldilocks says it's just right.

This is the caretaker's house for Lanz's Winery on Middlebass Island. Lake Erie.

You would think a winery could afford to take better care of it.

Yes, a paint job would be in order..

The winery has been closed for years. That particular house has probably been demolished. The State of Ohio has recently taken over the property as a state park.

Well, that's all right then,what we have here is a step back time. I am glad you were able to preserve a look into the past. Did you photograph any of the other buildings at the winery?

More to follow!

OK, this is the Main House that the Lonz family occupied. I believe it is being restored.

These are photos of the actual winery that the State is refurbishing as a state park complete with vinyards. Ohio's Cawtaba Red Wine.
