Last week, while browsing in the Local History section of the Lorain Public Library, I found another one of those books full of proposals for the redevelopment of Downtown Lorain that never took place (similar to this one, which I blogged about back
here). This one was produced by the
New Lorain Association in November 1977.
Like the 1978 book with the same theme, this one has many photographs of Lorain sprinkled in with the text. A few of them, reproduced from the book, are below.

Looking West on Sixth Street from Broadway; note the now-gone houses next to the Lorain Public Library
