Today I am thankful for coffee...strong coffee! It's about 5:30 in the morning and I just returned a little bit ago from dropping Ashlyn off at the airport. She is travelling with a friend to Frisco, Texas to see her JMU Dukes battle it out in the National Championship game! The game is Saturday so the girls will have a little time for sightseeing around Dallas....Now, more coffee!

127 Norfolk Ave . Roanoke

Built in 1902 by Moir and Brindel, grocers...

This area is known as the Roanoke Warehouse Historic District or Wholesale Row...it consists of 5 buildings built between 1889 and 1902 wholesale food storage.

I have shown you a couple of buildings HERE and HERE

I'm going to have to gather what info I have found on the area and go back and snap a pic of each building as I learn about their history...remind me haha

A lot of interesting reading on the buildings/area HERE and have you ever used Emporis ? Handy when you have the address of a building and need a little more info!
