    That's an outdated picture too. It's amazing how sprawling Cincy is getting.

    well the metro is much much larger than when the first highways was first built. And this one is in a high growth area. And to tell you the truth I think highways bring growth.

    That route would take out new subdivisions that have just been built.
  4. Them puny cities can't stop progress.
  5. • Rehabilitate the Brent Spence Bridge for use by Interstate 71 traffic and build a new I-75 bridge west of Longworth Hall Is it me or is that bridge is going to be built at an angle??? or you can kiss that new hotel and williys goodbye? And anything east would take away the Quality inn(radison inn)?
  6. 7 lanes in each direction????? The Brent Spence Bridge could handle its current traffic load "indefinitely" as long as it is properly maintained over the next 16 years, according to a new report by the highway departments of Kentucky and Ohio. The findings counter a 1999 study that concluded that the 41-year-old Brent Spence had 12 to 15 years of structural integrity left. Officials from both states stress the results don't diminish the need for a new bridge. http://news.enquirer.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050109/NEWS01/501090362/1056/news01
  7. http://magma.nationalgeographic.com/ngm/data/2001/07/01/map/pdf/mp_download_20010701.3.pdf Galaxies of light across the United States illuminate the scope of sprawl; yellow and red reveal its radiating creep just since 1993. People have migrated to the periphery of cities “to find more housing for less money,” says Alex Krieger of Harvard University. “Until this advantage is neutralized, sprawl will remain in our future.”
  8. Hehe I know what you mean.You can see the tunnel going southbound. There is about 300FT or so where you can place a few rail cars, so both northbound and southbound can see them.

    Warren county loves to sprawl. Travel SR 48 from I-71 to past Mainville. It looks like it might be designated urbanized pretty soon.
  10. ^ That should be "was" now, Thank God..;)
  11. This is the biggest 25 million dollar project I have never heard of in this area.

    So many mistakes..lol The easily should have had 16 more points
  13. The reason why i said something about this is because. The delays on the roads and freeways during the snow storm was 2+ hours. If their was light rail the HUGE delays would have been cut down for the ones that would want to ride light rail. Even tonight 7.10 pm I-75 southbound is at a stand still from 275 to the rive . and that has nothing to do with snow. We need more options in the ohio metro area's.
  14. Isnt it the most polluted water way in America? How should pay for it? The industry along that creek of course. Proctor and Gamble should fork up some money. The mill creak actually go through the plant in St Bernard.
  15. ODOT wants to build light rail. It was the people of our region that turned down the last proposal.
  16. All they have to do is remind people of this.
  17. Dang Monte you know everything, even though have lived here almost 2 years..lol I don't think monroe know what to do. Weather its a casino or mall.

    sprawl hell. New home along that highway as far as the eye can see. And this is 30 miles from downtown Cincinnati.
  19. unusualfire replied to a post in a topic in City Discussion
    Actually it's 20-21 miles away. Exit 21, but over 20 miles for sure.
  20. ESPNzone was to be in newport at somepoint, but i guess the deal fell through somewhow. I have not heard too much mroe about it the past 2 years. Here is an old article about ESPNzone. http://cincinnati.bizjournals.com/cincinnati/stories/2000/09/18/story1.html

    ^I have not noticed, althought I really don't venture to that part of town at all. There used to be a batting cage i used to goto near Northbend road. I wonder if it's still there. This is some 15 years ago.

    Yes i am...:) I like the central trust name better.
  23. I thought the banks was going in the area between the Museum and Paul Brown stadium.
  24. whoa..that would suck. Maybe you're getting interference in the lines inside your home. At least you won't have to pay anything since you'll get the first month free to test out..;)
  25. Does anyone know what's going to be built next to GABP? There is just dirt next to the Roebling bridge.
