  1. If you don't mind me asking, what is this riverfest?
  2. drew posted a post in a topic in City Life
    I am not sure what section you all would prefer this, and I am sure it will be moved if this is not the one. Anyhoo, I was wondering, is there a website or magazine of some sort that has listings and information for rental houses in Cincinnati? I found a couple of websites, but I was wondering if there was some better local type of site that has some houses on it.
  3. I think I know where Eden Park is, but I could be wrong. Is Walnut hills east of downtown, sort of along US 50 before Mariemont? I have seen the Target and Meijer off I-71, that is in Oakley? Are those clean stores? I have been meaning to stop, but I always forget. Always. Are there any good local restaurants in Oakley? I guess another question I have, is what does the mid-20's crowd do for fun in Cincinnati? Cincy-rise, I will think about perhaps meeting up, if that is ok. My sister might be meeting me, and if she does, we will probably head out on our own. I will let you know, though. Thanks for the offer. Thaks all for the help.
  4. I am traveling to Cincinnati for the Weekend of September 23 and 24 for the Downtown Tour of Living. I have a couple of question about specific neighborhoods and about the tour. I want to move to Cincinnati after I graduate college in December. 1) What is the tour like? Are there usually alot of people that take the tour? 2) Ok, I have looked at some of the specific neighborhoods on this site and in passing through the Cincy over that past year. This next trip, I am hoping to explore a couple of neighborhoods that seem interesting to me that I have driven through or seen on this website. I am hoping that someone can tell me what to expect (and what I should see) in these neighborhoods as far as proximity to grocery shopping, parks (preferably with tennis courts), and personal safety. I have never been worried about crime per se, but my fiance will be moving with me too, and I worry about her because she has never lived in a large city, it will be a culture shock to her, I just want her to feel safe walking outside at night. Any way, the neighborhoods I am wondering about are: Mt. Lookout Oakley Pleasant Ridge Northside (I really like what I have seen of northside, but I do not think she felt safe enough to live there when we drove through) Clifton Columbia-Tusculum Perhaps Mt. Adams or Over-the-Rhine, but I have explored those neighborhoods and think I have a fairly good handle on those neighborhoods as well as too a lesser extent Downtown.
  5. Hello. I am coming to Cincinnati this weekend and I had a couple of questions I was hoping some of you all could help me with. First off, I am really wanting to go to the top of the Carew Tower. How do I get info on that. How exactly does one get up there. Is there a public elevator somewhere? I have never been in the tower, so I am not sure where to look. Also, is there anything going on for memorial day? I am going to the Reds game on Sunday and want to wander around and sightsee on Monday, but I was concerned that with Monday being a holiday, some things may be shut down or something. Thanks.
