When a building outlives its original purpose, what happens to it? Upper-level students from Ohio Northern’s Art & Design program asked this question about Ada’s 1887 Pennsylvania Railroad Depot at Central and Main. During an 8:00 p.m. outdoor event on October 23, they projected their visions onto the building.
