  1. Here is the link: http://city-egov.cincinnati-oh.gov/Webtop/ws/council/public/documents/ResultSet;jsessionid=4C06B03D9EEB3DDCE6817D6B2F89822B?rpp=10&upp=0&m=15868&order=CALENDAR_DATE It is listed as number 15877 Let me know what you think.
  2. Ever see the Western Hills Gateway West Price Hill Covedale Business District Plan that the city proposed back in 1998 (72 page plan complete with illustrations)? Price Hill Civic should concentrate on making that plan a reality rather than trying to force the residents of Covedale into accepting the Price Hill identity in an attempt to improve Price Hill.
  3. Anybody know why there are more West Price Hill signs on Glenway? I drove through there over the weekend and noticed a sign in front of the Covedale Theatre and across the street (in front of the funeral home). I also saw one up by St. Teresa. Whats the deal?
  4. Thanks! As a young professional who grew up in Covedale and chose to buy a house and raise a family in here, I have never felt more enthused about my neighborhood. I have always visioned a redevelopment of Glenway from Crookshank to Cleves Warsaw. There is so much potential for the area. I would love to see some 3 or 4 story mixed use development replace some of the of the buildings along Glenway. I think some high end condos along with some middle to low income apartments with retail/commercial on the street level would serve the area well. The Covedale Theatre for the Performing Arts, the Library, Prouts Corner and Price Hill Chili are great anchors that could enjoy even more success if the rest of the area was redeveloped using Smart Growth philosophy. Any thoughts on how to make that happen?
  5. It looks like you are really informed. I love the quote by Kunstler. I've read all of his books. By the way. I'm a westsider who has one of those Proud Covedale Resident signs that you speak about. I think you hit the nail right on the head. I would love love to know at what time and why the city stopped recognizing the Covedale identity. It seems unfair that in 1930 they would welcome Covedale residents into the city and then at some point in time turn around and call the entire area Price Hill; even when the residents in the area in question prefer the Covedale identity.
  6. I have seen a map of Hamilton County from 1869 (Titus Co 1869) that shows Covedale being located at the south east corner of section 7 of Green Twp. This is the approximate location of Prout's Corner. TraderJake is correct. This would pre-date the Price hill identity as Price Hill was not called Price Hill until the Price family built the incline in 1874.
