Kirkbride Buildings Blog

December 19th, 2007

Hello World!

As a web designer, I recently put together blogs for a few companies. That experience plus some recent Kirkbride-related news inspired me to try out a blog on this site. Ideally it will keep the site more current (I haven’t made a significant update in well over a year now) while also being a place for you to find news about Kirkbride buildings and other bits of information that don’t really fit in anywhere else. I’m hoping it’ll work into something worthwhile and won’t go the way of the forum. (Remember that?)

It will also help me get the ball rolling on a long overdue site update and redesign. I’ve got pictures of buildings not listed on the site, and new pictures of some of the ones that are. There will probably be a few other little features to add and maybe I’ll finally put up more chapters of Dr. Kirkbride’s book.

Anyway, feel free to comment and/or send me Kirkbride-related information you think should be posted here. Thanks.

    AWESOME website. I’ve learned so much after finding this place. Beautiful buildings… more needs to be done to save the buildings that are still standing.
