I don't drive on that part of High often, but I did yesterday. I was wondering what was going on there.

North Campus Construction

I'm really liking the Joseph development

Philip Heit Center for Healthy New Albany

No I wasn't aware of anything in this neighborhood at all until my visit. I saw the massive "meh" building across the street from this. If they tear down these buildings it looks like very little of the old business district will remain.

I like that corner building. It just needs to be cleaned up.

A few shots from my first visit to Cincinnati earlier this year, more can be found at http://www.flickr.com/eridony/. What a wonderful city! I can't wait to go back and explore more areas. On this trip I only saw parts of downtown, Over-The-Rhine, West End, and University of Cincinnati. I also visited Covington and Newport and have already posted photo threads on those two places. My first shots of the city were taken from the Kentucky side. Crossing into the city I guess I missed the singing City Hall YMCA Balloonopus Over-the-Rhine Music Hall Race Street Survivor Future Streetcar Stop Memorial Hall Turret Lofts Hall of Justice Casino Theater William Betts House Random find Dunnhumby Centre Over-the-Rhine Carew Tower P&G Future Carousel Schneider Quad at University of Cincinnati Tangeman University Center McMicken Hall Hughes High School Dieterle Vocal Arts Center

Part of my first visit to Cincinnati I also explored a bit of Newport (already posted a photo thread) and Covington. Here is a selection of photos from that city. Lovell-Graziani House Laidley House Fallis-Lovell House I did the best I could shooting against the sun right at mid-day Ditto Madison Avenue definately feels like stepping back into the mid-20th century. A few more shots of Covington can be found in my Flickr album http://www.flickr.com/photos/eridony/sets/72157645102146387

The first Fresh Thyme location in Columbus looks like it is almost ready to open.

The facade on the Fireproof Building addition is starting to appear.

Aston update. I really hope the townhomes are successful so they can build that second row facing Starr Avenue can be built. Right now from Starr all you see is the backside of Aston Row.

Not sure if I should put this here, or in the Random Development thread, but I noticed a few weeks ago two houses under construction in Victorian Village where Highland Street meets Second Avenue. From Google Streetview it looks like the site used to contain a single house, but the lot has been vacant for some time.

Doesn't look like too much of a tower, but it will bring a small piece of market history out to the public. They should bring back the tradition of ringing it twice a day though.

I have a hard time understanding how that proposal would cause so much controversy.

I had to find this thread. That is a pretty epic photo collection and hope someday we see Chapter Two!

The limited file size it what makes it difficult. It looks like Gnoraa figured it out. Thanks for the pictures Gnoraa. That project is progressing fast.

Well I'm about halfway through posting my shots from that day. Only a couple hundred of the better ones though. http://www.flickr.com/eridony Anyway it's been 3 months since I visited and the last pictures in this thread are mine. How is the progress on this building going?

Somehow I don't see them making their October deadline.

I took these shots last weekend. I noticed how much lower the water is than it was in May. I also noticed how the Santa Maria was sitting in its own private puddle.

Interesting! I wonder which floors will be used?

Looks like you visited Pullman. Love that place

Additionally here is an update on Battery B

Another shot of the slow progress of the new building at 1st & 6th. The second and third images are of the demolition of a little green 2-story building on 4th Street. It looks like it was a bar that say between Spring Cleaners and Exile.

Well I guess there were a lot of photos taken of this project over the weekend, but I'm posting mine anyway. I found it interesting it has already started to change the skyline when viewed from the river (last photo). It will be nice to see it growing up from that vantage point. One question I have is why does the building not go all the way to the corner of High and Main? Is that going to be a small surface lot? Room for a future addition?

It begins
