Empty Streets
in Norwood, Ohio.

According to the 1917-18 Williams Norwood Directory, some streets did not have any buildings. Therefore, any house located on those streets had to have been built after 1916 or was demolished prior to 1917. Another possiblity was that there were unoccupied houses on the streets. However, vacant houses were listed—for example, on the south side of Edmondson Road at the intersection with Edwards Road, there were ten vacant houses.
