By Scott Rogers • March 2, 2016
The odds are, you'll have to compromise on SOMETHING when you are buying your next home. The question becomes -- what are you you willing to compromise on? The easiest (at first) sometimes seems to be price -- you still get everything you want, you just have to pay more for it. But if you're drawing a firm line on price, then likely some other need or want will have to be imagined differently.

Explore Harrisonburg History through Sanborn maps of 1886, 1912, 1930
By Scott Rogers • March 1, 2016
As excerpted from the Feb 27, 2016 article in the Daily News Record.... A website developed by two James Madison University staff members may teach Harrisonburg residents a thing or two about their city. [...] Visitors to the site [...] might learn Liberty Street was named German Street before World War I. They might discover a tannery once stood where the Water Street parking deck now is, or that the county courthouse was less than half its size 130 years ago. Kevin Borg, an associate professor of history, and Bradley Andrick, geographic information system coordinator at JMU, created the website. [...] The site lets users compare satellite imagery of modern-day Harrisonburg with maps of the city from 1886, 1912 and 1930. Users can adjust the opacity of the overlaid maps to see the geographic changes over the years and read about historical points of interest. Read the full DNR article here, or start explore Harrisonburg's history via the new website.... http://www.gtsc.jmu.edu/shps/map/ Enjoy! Receive Updates by Email
