I used to walk the tracks behin...What great photos. I used to walk the tracks behind that area and take photos of all the old warehouses and the train depot. Unfortunately my images were lost.<br /><br />I remember as a kid, before the underpass was built on Broadway, my mom, grandmother and sister where coming back from a trip to Somerset, KY and crossed the tracks in the car. I was asleep in the backseat but was awaken by them talking excitedly about seeing a woman in a long white dress with arms extended to either side floating above the tracks. They were pretty shaken up. Unfortunately i saw nothing.<br /><br />I later did some research and found out that in the 1800's this area (also near University of Kentucky's Reynolds Building) was the site of a mass Cholera grave. The book i read it in was located in the Kentucky Room at the downtown branch library. It might still be there.<br /><br />I loved that old part of Lexington. I sorely miss it.MJLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07972771064277538913noreply@blogger.com
