Another great set!

 

It is easy to forget how many quality 3-4 story structures have survived in Downtown Cincinnati. There was a time when Downtown and OTR were probably much less varied.

Ya did good.

Loved all of your Cincy photos! Thanks for sharing!

some pics you've corrected the keystoning/perspective and others you haven't. Just wondering 1. what method you use

 

For the last few months I've been using the 'Free Transform' tool.

 

2. what criteria do you use to decide which images get corrected?

 

A combination of a few things contribute:

-not being able to make the perspective-corrected image look right to me

-some images I like how the non-corrected version looks without changing it

-sometimes the correction causes too much of the image to go away

(and occasionally I think I'm just being lazy.)

The density in Cincinnati is fantastic I love it! I find in intriguing that for a southern Ohio city that Cincinnati has a very Easct Coast type feel with its architecture. A question I have though is did the Architect that designed this gem do Fenn tower in Cleveland? 155399513.jpg

 

Or this one?

I believe George Post designed the Fenn Tower, Walter Ahlschlager is given credit for the Carew Tower, and the Cincinnati Gas & Electric Building is either John Russell Pope or Frederick Garber.

Well Summit Street - you have presented a legendary 3-set of photos of Cincy.  I'm a Cleveland boy and have never been to Cincy.  The differences between these two Ohio cities are mind boggling.  I know Cinci was settled and founded a bit before Cleveland, but the amount of 1800's architecture that remains intact in Cinci vs. Cleveland is amazing.  Cleveland, through several different paths, has destroyed much of its 1800's architecture.  I look forward to visiting Cincy some day to admire the 1800's architecture.  Thank you for this inspiring set.

These photos vividly demonstrate that Cincinnati has the architecture of a world-class city. Now if it can only return to being one...
