The Ohio Statehouse in 1988

Angela O’Neal from the Columbus Metropolitan Library shares a photo of the Ohio Statehouse in 1988 and talks about the history of a few surrounding buildings some of which no longer exist in downtown Columbus.

The photo is only one of over 20,000 photos, documents, maps, and videos in the library’s vast collection. Ohio Snapshots In Time digs into Ohio history one image at a time.

The Ohio Snapshot In Time series is produced by WOSU Public Media in partnership with the staff of the Columbus Metropolitan Library.
