The Dayton Arcade – Waking the Giant
A historic and cultural landmark, the Dayton Arcade is being renovated. After being shuttered for nearly 30 years, this is a massive project, central to the vitality of downtown Dayton.
We are following the progress of the renovation and will be premiering a new three-part documentary, The Dayton Arcade – Waking the Giant, starting in the summer of 2020.
