The is the beginning of the end of PHS. Its so sad to see this go. this video is of the west side of the building taken from the parking lot of Second Pres. This is not a high quality shoot. So please forgive!
I'm ashamed I'm from there. I agree, they should have taken the wrecking ball down Gallia Street to Chillicothe Street to the river. Shawnee State is a school to help the Portsmouth kids move out. I loved the place before everything closed, such as the steel mill. The 1950s and 60s were great. After that, Portsmouth imploded due to bad government and unions. It got what it deserved. I escaped to Alabama in 1979.
yeah, they should just keep on leveling the whole town and start over, with people from somewhere else in charge! Maybe then they could get some roads built and get some businesses to come back.
They shouldn't have stopped with the high school. The whole useless town should've been demolished. God, what a dump that place is.

Haven't been to P Town for years? You are lucky.. It is now a Welfare & Corruption Capitol of Ohio. What a disgrace

This is sad. Haven't been to Portsmouth in years. Graduated there in '76. Some great memories.
