I've completed nearly a month of residency in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Nice Midwest city with a bit of a downtown urban vibe. Rejuvenation is taking place, but the past is still retained in a lot of the architecture, which is a nice touch. I appreciate relics from the age of big industry, such as the General Electric buildings found at the Electric Works district. Classic 50s-70s Coney Dog restaurants and drive through burger joints can still be experienced as well.

Fort Wayne's Famous Coney Island, a place for great food (particularly coney dogs) in a classic American diner setting.

A former building used by General Electric, now being converted into a market type setting full of shopping, food, etc. in the Electric Works district.

Fairfield Manor, at the corner of Fairfield and Creighton Avenues.

Big Guy burger drive through, now closed, was popular in the region during the 60s and 70s.
