  1. The new Jos. A Bank looks pretty good, I must admit.
  2. I don't think Warren, Clermont and Butler Counties are sparsely populated.
  3. Do you ever see people in Cleveland?
  4. We need something like that on Fountain Square. Cincy could support it if Nashville can.
  5. The jail should be put in Warren County or Butler County. All criminals should be jettisoned from Cincy and be put in those counties. Let them deal with them instead of our fair city always being saddled with the problems.
  6. Sara Lee sucks. It should be boycotted. What a horrible corporate citizen to Cincinnati.
  7. Seriously, CincyRise, does light gray match brown? That is what they have done there. It just doesn't work. I am glad for the new retail, however. That is great.
  8. Yeah. I have never really loved that campus.
  9. It always amazes me how you can cross a boarder and enter another world. I love Mexican cities. So colorful.
  10. It is a crime what urban renewal did to cities. That would have been the best neighborhood anywhere if it were still standing. All of those buildings flooded in 1937, and I have a feeling that was the beginning of the end for the West End. Urban renewal and the interstate highway system did it in. Whole blocks were probably demolished at once to make room for modern warehouses. A true tragedy.
  11. Hamilton is just blowing me away. It is a BIG little city. Love it.
  12. Moe's is actually much healthier than Chipotle. You can can get wheat rice there. I really like Moe's.
  13. You have really opened my eyes to Hamilton. It isn't the redneck haven I once thought it was. I think Hamilton has great potential. With all of these great city neighborhoods and pretty much being in the suburbs now, I think the place could go through the roof. Also, I bet it is a great little city to live in.
  14. Good thing the city subsidized this with the garage. The problem in Cincy: not enough national developers who have institutional money. Local developers have a hard time getting money for development. It takes a long time and the local banks are extremely conservative about lending. Therefore, projects take forever to come to fruition.

    UC has come a long way! It now has an incredible campus. One of the best compact urban campuses anywhere. I am always amazed at how far that school has come. Go Nancy!
  16. I find it interesting that Cincy never got into COSI. We of course always had our own museums. I didn't know COSI was in Toledo and CMH.

    Is that some kind of trolley pole in that photo. The black box is horrible.
  18. I agree with Cincy-Rise. I like Cincy-Rise's new cynical outlook and logo.
  19. I bet that swimming pool was fowl back then.
  20. Why have they been turning the lights off on the bridge. KY can't be that broke.
  21. Oakland sounds great!
  22. I like the brutalist black scraper downtown. Also, what is Oakland like? Is that where the universities are?
  23. CVG needs to bulldoze both Terminal 1 and 2. Terminal 3 could handle all of the traffic with no problem. I have always been amazed the CVG hangs on to Terminal 1. It looks like something that should be in Dubuque or something.

    Our O&D traffic is "piss poor" because leisure fares are so high. Cincinnatians have been traveling to Indy, Columbus, Louisville and Dayton for years to escape the high prices. Cleveland's O&D would be hurt too, except for the fact that people in Cleveland have nowhere else to go to get a flight except maybe Akron. Delta wants to be somewhere they can control all of the operations. They kept Southwest out of ATL and CVG. They won't make their hub in an airport with SW. Hopkins would have to dump SW. CVG is better airport than CLE because the runways are more efficient. I don't think you will see a DL hub in CLE any time soon.
  25. I am sad they are leaving that ugly 1980's glass above the restaurant.
