Ballston NOW, Parkington THEN

Central Methodist Church has been there for as long as I can recall. Looking from driveway out of the Westin towards where Bob Peck Chevrolet used to be on right hand side. Looking from Stafford St. next to the Methodist Church across Fairfax Dr. toward the IHOP that is tucked away among the high rises and sporting a bit of a facelift. Looking down Fairfax Dr. from its intersection with Glebe Rd. towards the Metro station and 2 of the few remaining recognizable landmarks from our high school years. At intersection of Wilson Blvd. with Glebe rd. looking at where the Bob Peck Chevrolet dealership once stood, as suggested by the vestigial line of blue diamonds across the glass front of the office building. This is all that remains of where Hechts used to put various messages up. It became a Macys and only the concrete squares suggest the old signage - and its quite obscured by a building with a tower where the front parking lot used to be! These storefronts may have all changed business names but building strip still much as it was in the 60s including the Chinese restaurant on far corner. Sits across from Metro Station on Fairfax Dr. Front entrance to the Westin Hotel where will will gather on August 21 for our reunion. It sits between Wilson Blvd and Fairfax Dr on Glebe Rd - approximately where the old Putt-Putt Golf course once stood. Taken from intersection of Stafford St and Fairfax Dr The Ballston Metro station seems to be undergoing some construction.

Craig Sampson's Contributions

The doors are looking good 40 plus years later The doors I made matched the original These last two pictures were taken in April 2017 when I visited the Mansion during an Open House Windows for Snyder Memorial Church. Fayetteville NC. In 1979 I made two new doors for the North Carolina Governor’s Mansion. The doors were to keep the noise from the remodeled kitchen from the rest of the house. My welding experience learned working during my college days came in handy. At the time I was the sash and door man at Martin Woodcraft (1976 to 1982) The Mansions kitchen was replaced with a professional kitchen that could handle large State affairs I helped with the welding on his car project The car went from a stock 120 hp to 350 hp
