September 28, 20222 yr Apparently the CVS immediately adjacent to the Paramount Building (same block as former Kroger store) is closing on October 12. No known plans for the building. I assume (with no insider knowledge) it'll be demolished and sold off for part of a larger development with the rest of the block.
October 4, 20222 yr Just visited the neighborhood for the first time in awhile. It’s feeling a lot different with the demolition of the old Kroger and the completion of the two-way conversion.
October 4, 20222 yr That reminds me, I was also just up in Walnut hills and took this picture of the development at the old Anthem site. The area is definitely feeling different.
October 5, 20222 yr This is turning out much better than I was expecting. I like the dark colors and the big windows, I feel like windows are usually value engineered down from what they're originally rendered, but these look great. How's it look in person?
October 5, 20222 yr I am hoping in the median on the two way conversion areas they can plant native prairie grasses / sedges / wildflowers. The new build on old anthem site I can concur looks really nice in person and it will be better when all the construction is wrapped up and the landscaping is done. Will be interested to see how quickly this gets filled with residents and hopefully they move forward to add more housing in the adjacent lots which I think originally they were going to redevelop as well.
October 26, 20222 yr Western & Southern, Urban Sites set to build $4 million Walnut Hills apartment project By Chris Wetterich – Staff reporter and columnist, Cincinnati Business Courier Oct 26, 2022 Western & Southern and Urban Sites are set to renovate a 35-unit apartment building in Walnut Hills and rent it to low-income residents without receiving the type of subsidy such apartments typically require. In order to get the apartment building at 2378 Park Ave. up and running in the next eight months, the developers will not seek low-income housing tax credits, said Markiea Carter, the city’s economic development director. “This is a strategic partnership with Western & Southern. This is a part of a mission of Western & Southern as well as Urban Sites to quickly source affordable units … without relying on public or agency funding,” Carter said. “It will be on the market sooner.” MORE

November 17, 20222 yr ArtWorks breaks ground on new creative campus in Walnut Hills In the heart of Walnut Hills' business district sits a historic 1920s building with the words "Race Refrigeration" – the business that operated there for more than 50 years – plastered across the front in big, bold letters. It's empty now. But over the next year and a half, the building will transform into the future home of ArtWorks, the group responsible for hundreds of murals around Greater Cincinnati. "It really will be an incredible arts facility that is all about inclusivity and supporting the next generation of creative talent for our city," Colleen Houston, CEO and artistic director of ArtWorks, said.

December 1, 20222 yr Harry and Linda Fath pledge $1 million matching gift to Purcell Marian High School stadium project Cincinnati entrepreneur and philanthropists Harry and Linda Fath are once again making a major financial contribution to a local school. Weeks after announcing a $50 million gift to Xavier University — the largest donation in the Jesuit Catholic school’s history — the couple has pledged a $1 million matching gift opportunity for Purcell Marian High School in East Walnut Hills. The money will help support its Staubach Stadium project. The Faths previously donated $1 million to the effort, propelling forward plans for the on-campus field complex. The total construction cost is $7.2 million. Purcell Marian said more than $6.5 million has been raised in gifts and pledges to date.

February 21, 20232 yr Developer Onyx + East plans dozens of new single-family homes in Walnut Hills By Chris Wetterich – Staff reporter and columnist, Cincinnati Business Courier Feb 21, 2023 An Indianapolis developer plans to build 39 single-family, market-rate rowhouses in Walnut Hills near Interstate 71, a change from an earlier site plan that called for apartments. Cincinnati Planning Commission approved the needed rezoning Friday, Feb. 17 for Onyx + East’s May Square project, which will be located along Crown, May and Dix streets south of Taft Road in Walnut Hills. Commissioners approved the rezoning of 1.45 acres under the form-based code in Walnut Hills for 22 of the homes. The other 17 sites already have the proper zoning. Developer Samir Kulkarni’s Paramount Redevelopment Group had planned to build a mixed-use apartment project at the site, but it has been scrapped. MORE
February 21, 20232 yr ^There's a bit more detail in the Planning Commission packet: https://www.cincinnati-oh.gov/planning/about-city-planning/city-planning-commission/feb-17-2023-packet/ The townhouses that face William H Taft Rd will have a front yard facing the urban highway of four, one-way lanes. Yikes. Hopefully this development puts some pressure on DOTE to make changes to Taft Rd, either converting to two-way (it's two-way east of May) or a major road diet. Anybody have background/context for why the developer shifted from the 2019 plan? The 2019 plan only included the area south of Crown St, leaving the portion north of Crown St as "Phase 2", so it's a bit hard to compare the two proposals. But the previous proposal had 40 apartments over retail, just in Phase 1 south of Crown, whereas the new proposal has 39 rowhouses and no retail across the entire site. It implies they see less ROI from the retail, and better ROI from a purely residential project. But there may also be other factors prompting the change. It's interesting to me that both proposals needed a variance from the form-based code. Here's the latest site plan: Here's the proposed site plan for "Phase 1" south of Crown St from 2019:
February 21, 20232 yr Streetview on Crown hasn't been updated since 2014. Heartbreaking to see the architecture we continue to lose in Cincinnati.
February 21, 20232 yr I'm not endorsing the new proposal, but there's likely a much larger demand for single-family homes that are sub $300k, even if they are attached. At some point, people that live in apartments usually want to branch out and try the home-ownership thing, depending on where they are in life. I can see why the developer went this direction. I bet they fill up quickly despite being right next to the I-71 and a one-way drag strip.
February 23, 20232 yr I was thinking about how a road reconfiguration along Taft might help that corner of Walnut Hills, and I realized that if the SB-71 ramp is "straightened" out, it could meet Taft at a traditional intersection, which would allow for Taft to be two-way. Current This would have a bunch of advantages: Allows for eastbound traffic on Taft to access Peebles Corner area. This simplifies access for people coming from SB-71 or Reading Road. Opens up roughly an acre of developable space for CCHMC at the old Oak-Winslow site Allows for Essex Place to become two-way (currently is one-way, southbound), which would improve connectivity from McMillan. Allows traffic from Reading to Depending on CCHMC's site plan, Essex Place north of Taft could be opened up allowing a direct access to the site from Taft Curious if anybody has feedback, or has heard alternative proposals for that area. This proposal would make Taft two-way between Reading and May St. Obviously, the two-way conversion could continue further westward, but for now I'm just looking at that section. The proposal would need CCHMC and ODOT to be on board. Key: enlarged CCHMC site in yellow; SB-71 exit ramp in white; two-way Taft in red/blue; two-way Essex in green/orange Additional acreage gained by straightening out the geometry of SB-71 exit ramp:
February 23, 20232 yr 53 minutes ago, jwulsin said: Curious if anybody has feedback I am worried that ODOT and the city are still planning for the UC football traffic load, which still creates gridlock for an hour or more, despite the appearance of the new MLK interchange. The 2-way conversion of McMillan from Woodburn west to I-71 has been a pretty seamless transition. I do think there is potential for trouble if the 2-ways are continued further west to Vine, but I have long had some ideas to help the area. A 2-lane bridge for a 2-way Taft over Reading would help, as would a similar McMillan St. bridge over Vine.
February 23, 20232 yr 2 hours ago, Lazarus said: I am worried that ODOT and the city are still planning for the UC football traffic load, which still creates gridlock for an hour or more, despite the appearance of the new MLK interchange I assume something similar. When the exit ramp splits from the lane going to MLK, it's a little less than a mile until the Taft light (0.8 miles) but it's only one lane. I could see ODOT not wanting to risk traffic backing up on that one lane. But honestly, both the Taft and McMillian exits should go away now that there is a modern standard, mega interchange at MLK but fat chance that happens any time soon.
February 24, 20232 yr 20 hours ago, Dev said: But honestly, both the Taft and McMillian exits should go away now that there is a modern standard, mega interchange at MLK but fat chance that happens any time soon. I disagree. I think it'd be worse if all traffic were funneled through the MLK exchange. I hope Taft/McMillan retain access. Here is a more limited alternative that would allow Taft and Essex to become two-way, and wouldn't require moving any curbs or reducing any capacity from SB-71 (still three lanes at exit ramp onto three lanes westbound on Taft). This would be worse in terms of connectivity (SB-71 wouldn't have direct access to eastbound Taft) but it'd be much cheaper to implement and probably face less opposition from UC and ODOT.

July 26, 20231 yr Cincinnati grocer ETC Produce & Provisions opening Walnut Hills store in 2024 Years after Walnut Hill’s Kroger store closed due to declining revenue, a local grocery store is slated to open in the neighborhood next year. ETC Produce & Provisions has announced it will open its second location in Walnut Hills, targeting a summer 2024 opening. The 3,500-square-foot store will be in Model Group and Walnut Hills Redevelopment Foundation’s Paramount Launch building at the site of the former Kroger. ETC will be the anchor tenant in that building. Matt Reckman, president of property management at Model Group, said the 2017 closure of Walnut Hill’s Kroger came as a big shock to the neighborhood. Model Group, along with Walnut Hills Redevelopment Foundation, has been working for years to bring a new grocer to the neighborhood.

October 23, 20231 yr I visited the Woodburn Exchange apartment building today for the first time. Wow, the thing is so ugly and so cheap inside. I weigh about 170lbs and I could feel the wooden floor bouncing the whole time as I walked down the third floor hallway. I can't imagine how much more it bounces for someone over 200lbs. The interior lobby layout made no sense (they laid the whole thing out, it seems, so as to show "amenities" to prospective tenants visitor in a single lazy view, rather than organize them so as to be used in a logical and comfortable way by...tenants) and the paint scheme of the interior hallways is almost unbelievably ugly. There is a weird set of 4-5 stairs down to the main elevator, which is positioned off to the side as if it was an afterthought. It's like, when you walk into the main entrance of a large apartment building, the entrance itself ought to be centered to the block or on the corner. The main space ought to lead logically to the stairs and/or elevators. For whatever reason, everything built in the last 10 years from UC over to Walnut Hills seems to have bizarre physical layouts, dim interiors, and nothing but the cheapest materials. Also, there appear to be people getting housing vouchers to live in Woodburn Exchange. Babies in diapers running around the place and adults wearing pajamas at 4pm.

November 28, 20231 yr Mortar on the move again: Cincinnati accelerator, nonprofit readies to launch multimillion-dollar campaign for new HQ By Liz Engel - Digital editor November 28, 2023, 06:44am EST Mortar is on the move again. The Cincinnati-born accelerator and nonprofit that helps underserved entrepreneurs and small businesses grow will permanently call a new neighborhood home come 2024. Allen Woods, the organization’s co-founder and CEO, formally announced the group’s plans earlier this month to move into a massive new headquarters space in a historic Walnut Hills building. The move has been seven years in the making – and it now comes with a targeted completion date amid the anticipated public launch of a capital campaign. It was 2016 when Mortar – during a news conference conducted by former Cincinnati Mayor John Cranley – first announced its plans for a Walnut Hills HQ. The space, earmarked in the historic Durner Building on Gilbert Avenue, was meant to be split with the Walnut Hills Redevelopment Foundation, Woods said, and city officials hoped the project, and other investments around Peebles Corner, would help save the Walnut Hills Kroger nearby. The grocery store shuttered in March 2017, and Mortar went silent on its headquarters plans. Talks with Model Group – which is working to redevelop the building, and the former Kroger site in a project known as Paramount Square – renewed in 2022, Woods said. MORE
November 29, 20231 yr A lot of development happening in Walnut Hills for sure and East Walnut Hills. I will be curious how it all looks in Peebles Corner a couple of years from now when the next round of development is finished at the old Kroger site. I still very strongly feel they need to update the intersection of Gilbert and McMillan to be pedestrian centric. That area doesn't get a ton of traffic and would benefit greatly from a huge facelift. In fact all of Gilbert from where I commute from MLK to McMillan needs a huge upgrade. Hopefully with the rail sale and this administration they can make a sizable investment there and bury utilities, create bike lanes, etc. That said, maybe they are waiting for some of the major projects to finish before they go down that road? It just feels like the city needs to do more studies to apply for grants for multi modal and pedestrian safety changes / upgrades to infrastructure. Maybe they are already doing that but I just feel doing that would be a huge upgrade for the current residents and future residents of the area. Also in East Walnut Hills by the Woodburn Exchange I wonder how they will build on that area, there is still a lot of surface lots to fill in so hopefully they can get another large apartment building or two going in that area to create some more critical mass for the area. Once the old Kroger site is finished with Model and if they can fill in a lot of infill in the old Anthem lots to it's full potential it feels like it could really pump up the area even more. That said, the difference between ten years ago to today is quite profound and moving in the right direction. I would be curious if anyone had any before / after photos. @Lazarusare you planning any photo updates soon. I love to see them and haven't seen any posted in awhile! 😏

The city already has won grant funding to completely redesign Gilbert from Court Street to MLK. It sounds like the scope includes the MLK intersection as it specifically calls out the SUP and unprotected bike lanes on MLK. They also put the project engineering out to bid, which was won by the Kleingers Group. The grant was a Federal grant administered by OKI so they will be requiring NEPA level documentation and public engagement. IIRC we should be seeing meeting announcements during the winter. The project overall is currently scheduled to be done in 2025 but I wouldn't be surprised if it slips given how things have been going recently. Here is an interesting snippet from the scope document: Quote This shall include preparation of 2 concept plans along the study corridors. Concept A shall review a bicycle facility as follows: 2-way protected bike lane in the median of Gilbert between Court and Elsinore. 1-way protected bike lane, parking protected, between Elsinore and MLK Concept B shall review a bicycle facility as follows: 2-way protected bike lane along east curb of Gilbert between Court and Elsinore 2-way protected bike lane along west curb of Gilbert between Elsinore and MLK. NOTE - DOTE may select the entirety of either Concept A or B and may also select elements from both Concepts to form the approved alignment for use in subsequent construction plan development. Parallel to this, Victory Parkway will also be redesigned, as part of the bridge replacement project. That should go from Martin to McMillian although I think they had a goal to continue that work all the way up to the intersection with Gilbert. Construction for that will likely start in 2026. The recent 10-year bike plan update included McMillian from Victory all the way to Central Parkway but that was just listed in the 2028 to 2032 map. I haven't seen anything else about it so it's probably too soon to tell and will be dependent on other internal priorities, aka politicking.

There are still a ton of holes and the population is too small to support restaurants and other activity without people visiting the area from elsewhere. About 20 homes have been renovated west of Gilbert and about 5 new homes have been built. That, of course, is a lot compared to the past 50~ years, but it's a sluggish pace compared to the breakneck speed seen in Nashville and other faster-growing cities. I have the sense that developers are attacking the East End/Linwood much more aggressively than they are Walnut Hills, and there is a long way to go before all of the vacant lots have been developed over there.
