Terminix Pest Control Ghost Sign in Over-the-Rhine
You can spot this ghost sign for Terminix Pest Control as you start heading up the hill on Vine St. in the Northern portion of Over-the-Rhine, between East McMicken and East Clifton Aves.
You’re right! They look like the top two floors of narrow old townhouses. There are several rows/blocks of them throughout Cincinnati.

Those buildings with the trapezoidal or parallelogram footprints just kill me. Especially when they’re on a hillside, you feel that they once had four 90 degree corners, then began shifting.
the smaller buildings in front of it are very unique

They’re definitely odd, but kind of cute.
