Photographic preservation of current Downtown

Desert Hot Springs is about to undergo a wonderful revival in the downtown area.  Local researcher / photographer Ron Gilbert has taken the project of documenting the current state of our downtown area.  We expect great things to happen in the revitalization of our downtown.  However thanks to Ron we have preserved the current state (circa 2008).  Follow this link to the pictures.

 

The area of DHS being photographed: Pierson Boulevard and Palm Drive. The highlighted area extends west to West Drive, east to Mesquite Avenue, north to Second Street and south to Buena Vista Avenue.
