I think it was around 1800-2000.

Love that they are adding some height to this.

I’m wondering if the hotel brand they were wanting told them that they wouldn’t put their name on the building unless the convention center was also updated and now since we know that it’s going to be renovated they can proceed with the finalization of the hotel.

Any idea when we will have more information on the hotel?

Wouldn't surprise me if they try to gear it towards college students then try to get them to join their church.

https://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2024/03/15/cig-communities-new-kenwood-apartments.html Plans are still in place fore the 10 story apartment project for the Gallery at Kenwood. Mentions construction to start at the beginning of 2025. Assuming they are going to try for the transformational tax credit again after missing out on it this year.

https://www.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/news/2024/03/14/fort-washington-way-passed-over-fed-deck-funding.html Fort Washington Way misses out on funding again. I’m sure we’ve talked about this but can some funds from the railroad sale help fund these? I know it’s for existing infrastructure but Washington way was built so that caps could be put on so technically part of this project already exists.

Wondering what two restaurants left for these to come in.

https://columbusunderground.com/new-dining-entertainment-options-opening-at-easton-sp1/ Article from Columbus underground. Talks about Cbus getting their first Paris Baguette, but also mentions about Cincinnati getting two more locations. Doesn’t mention where but will assume it’ll be somewhere close to Liberty Center and maybe one around Rookwood or Kenwood.

Assuming it’s going to become an event space.

https://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/2024/03/06/norwood-cincinnatis-factory-52-project-expands-with-retail-housing/72748402007/ Enquirer article talks about the new apartment building at Factory 52. Mentions what is next for the site and that it’ll be announced in the next few months.

Realized that two of every animal in the world couldn’t actually fit in the ark so they needed more space to store them.

What does this mean?

If I remember correctly they will be presenting at the next Madisonville Community Council meeting. The area I’m a going to assume is the spot he’s wanting to build on was once slated for commercial and office development.

Any thoughts as to what they are planning? I know the Hollister court project was supposed to go on some of these parcels, but I am assuming that them acquiring more parcels has changed that projects outlook.

We would if we had a crane for every single building being built. Seems like Columbus always has a crane even if it’s only 5 floors.

Wondering when they will start on the next phase of The District.

Last time I was at Kenwood the Where I’m From store was closing.

Any word on this?

Is there still a possibility of more floors or is this the final rendering? Just glad something is finally starting on this section of Downtown.

While bringing thousand of people into OTR, helping countless businesses near the stadium. Fast tracking a Central Parkway redevelopment that prolly wouldn’t even be on the radar if it wasn’t for the stadium. Yes it sucks that some buildings were torn down but a decent amount of the land was a stadium. The old ballet building with the tri state wholesale couldn’t really be used for anything else other than office and the pandemic basically killed that proposal. Yes it could have been completed already but at least it’s actually getting built.

Will prolly become the most dense block in OTR after it’s all complete.

Took some photos while walking around Findlay today.

I don’t believe so. They had a soft opening last week or so.

Any word on the new student housing development just south of crossroads? Remember them saying it was getting started this year but it’s been crickets since that news.
