I thought that was pretty common at universities - at least in the business departments. I know my school had NYT and WSJ.

ZipCar cruises into downtown Cincinnati http://www.kypost.com/dpps/news/region_central_cincinnati/downtown/ZipCar-cruises-into-downtown-Cincinnati_8012258 CINCINNATI - The car sharing company ZipCar arrives in downtown Cincinnati Thursday. Six of the vehicles will be parked in designated spaces downtown. To use them you need to create an account with ZipCar and reserve the time you need a vehicle. East 12th Street and Vine Street East Court Street and Walnut Street Garfield Place and Race Street ------------- Also: http://www.wlwt.com/news/local-news/cincinnati/Zipcar-to-begin-service-downtown/-/13549970/17415450/-/87l0rxz/-/index.html

yeah, it's being renovated into two restaurant spaces. Boca is moving to it and then an Italian trattoria is also going to be there (if memory serves). next door in the old Barleycorn's building, 4EG just opened their 10th and most impressive space - a bar/club called Igby's --- which is, imo, in a league of its own for cincinnati

It seems streetcar opponents usually have don't know very much about the project in terms of facts. What they lack in facts, they more than make up for in falsehoods....and speedwalking.

This thread needs an enema.

I've walked through probably dozens of buildings in OTR that are in need of immediate stabilization. As a preservationist, I want to see buildings survive. I support anyone willing to save these buildings. Very few developers have the desire and capability to take on some of these distressed properties. There's so much work to be done. I have nightmares about bowed brick walls and roofless buildings. Many exciting things are on the drawing board for OTR and I've never had more hope for its future. My biggest fear: insufficient financing for those capable of preservation/development.

CORE charges a premium for their work FWIW

That might be the case. At least with this new wave of units, I know they'll be posted online as they become available mid- to late-November. I'd check it everyday and would even consider calling them.

UrbanSites will have some new units coming online soon - perhaps Nov - so watch that closely

Good question - you could tweet them... Also - Cincinnati's penguins will be YELLOW
