Oh, yeah! All of the older suburbs have those way cool historic centers - Middletown, and Jeffersontown has a good-size one; Harrods Creek, Okolona, Valley Station ... Fern Creek used to, but I'm afraid it's become so thoroughly strip-mall'd that the old landmarks like Fanelli's is pretty much hidden by the CVS and Marathon stations. (C'mon, Creekers, tell me I'm wrong!)
I'm a Creeker (Go Tigers!) and you are so right. Everything past Six Mile Lane has pretty much given way to the 1970s building era. There's nothing left of any of the really old buildings and most of the one time landmarks (like Feganbush Orchards) are gone. (Sniff)
