A block of West Third Street's old "Miami City" neighborhood, across the Great Miami River from downtown Dayton, Ohio, where the Wright Brothers -- Wilbur and Orville -- operated a print shop and later a cycle shop (around the corner to the right). At the latter, across the street from these buildings, they hatched plans for what would become the world's first heavier-than-air flying machine. This block is (in 2016) part of the National Park Service's Wright-Dunbar Interpretive Center, which includes the home of Paul Laurence Dunbar, a legendary poet who, as a boy was a school classmate of Orville Wright.
