- For this video, I traveled to Historic Downtown Anderson, Indiana. We see the Paramount Theatre and the State Theatre. We also got a good look at the Anderson City Train Depot Station. They're still lots of old buildings to see. Great place to walk and get some fresh air while enjoying Downtown Anderson, Indiana.

This is my hometown. Born and raised in Anderson.
Nice spot!!
Me too!
Yep, me too. Great place to have been raised. I'm sorry to see it so dilapidated. However, I see a renaissance someday as everything is cyclical.
@@pixelchi what high school? I am highland class of 03
@@Eric_B1983 You're a mere child. Anderson High School, 1968.
Really nice tour, Indiana has so many older historic towns.
Thanks! Same as Ohio. Lot's of old rail/farm towns that all have their own history. I'm goin to hit quite a few this summer I think. Least while I'm out and about to try and drum up some content.
In the early 70s, I used to live at 6th and Meridian. They were Townhomes built during the Civil War. When I lived there they were cut into 21 apartments. We called it hippy town.
Thanks for sharing!
You know what the Apartments are called by any chance?
@@djm.326 I believe it was called The Meridian. It was the early 70's.
Very interesting to me! I haven’t been to Anderson in years! Have ate at The Toast restaurant many times in the past.
Thats cool! Looked liked a nice neighborhood style place! It was full of people!
@@SavageTraveling had really good food.
Me too.

Thank you for the tour. You did an awesome job. I was born and raised in Anderson. Born in 1960, lived on Nichol Ave. I loved the hustle and bustle of our downtown.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed!
I stayed in anderson about 4 months in 1986 to study automotive parts BATTERY. I remember the motel MARK MOTOR IHN I stayed. Im almost 70s now.
I miss the time I was there
Thank you for that lovely tour of my Hometown. I just came back from there today after not being there for 30 years. Boy has it changed. I'm not gonna lie though it has triggered me to get out of Florida and come back.
Rail station at 14:05 was originally the New York Central passenger station. When I was in grade school, we boarded a train here for New Hampshire.
That's cool! Thanks for sharing!
That's the Big Four Depot. My dad used to be the passenger and freight agent there. I can still remember him sticking his head out the window advising passengers what cars to board. I often times stopped by the depot after school to visit my dad who let me bang on the office adding machine until the eastbound passenger train departed and he could go home.
At 1:58 is the Carnegie Library. The Carnegie family had a goal of building a library in every US county seat. The library was "patroled" by cats to control mice.
Cool, Nice to hear some history!
I remember going to that library as a kid. 1st Savings and Loan was across the street. Had a 5 and one-quarter percent savings account there.
At 1:25, this building was the Buick dealership.
Nice!
The first week of September was the unveiling of the new GM models. People were excited and proud.
The town of Anderson has really went down since General Moters pulled out!
We should explore the town on skates!
YMCA at 5:10 was temporary home to migrants from southern states in the 1930's coming to Anderson for factory work after leaving the family farm.
Thanks for the insight!
I learned to swim at that YMCA and stopped in after school to play ping pong.
the CATS (bus terminal) is the old one, new one build just down the road on 14th. and just the other day the old main st terminal burned down. Also the electric rail is what became the interurban passenger rail which operated until WW2

Don’t forget about tent city
I wish I would have known. I'd of went to investigate it
Lol you don’t wanna go to tent city, it’s full of meth heads in the woods 💀

@@burpple9218 lol do you live in Anderson? I live on the westside. Yeah there’s some crazy mfs I see coming out the woods n shit all cracked out
