Waynesburg Post Card Views


Enjoy some nice old views of Waynesburg





Many kisses on this old view of the Waynesburg & Washington Depot



Five firemen lost their lives when the Downey House burned in 1925. Not often noticed by pedestrians is the plaque to their memory on a building just to the west of the Old Fort Jackson / County Office building.



West Waynesburg



Waynesburg's and Greene County's tallest skyscraper







The old Ross building, now Groovy's. The Post Office was here until it was moved to the present location in the early 1930's.


Another view of the old Peoples National Bank building now wonderfully undergoing restoration












I believe this is Town Hill














Built to replace the Downey House, The Fort Jackson was very modern.





The original fair ground, now the College field / VFW Club area



Here is the double wide covered bridge, now the Veterans Memorial bridge near McDonalds









Early view of lower town and Old Main
