I am on the east side just off I-71 and North Broadway.  On the map my area is bouned by I-270, I-670, and I-71.  OSU is to the south west.  The state capital and the tall buildings of the downtown area are to the kind of far southwest, roughly along High Street and Broad Street.  The best shopping is at Polaris and Easton. 

Huh. Okay. Not to far South then. I'm in Dayton pretty much full time for school. :D
