Posted October 11, 20195 yr I'm creating this thread so that anyone can contribute photos of Blink that they take. This will keep it separated from the logistics of Blink and discussion of how the event is going. I'll post a few photos to start.

The police did a pretty good job of getting the streetcar moving through lights before allowing traffic on Third to move.

October 11, 20195 yr Cincinnati should unofficially be known as mini Tokoyo during blink. Great shots! Also why isn't the river front center used more often for like daily stuff? Edited October 11, 20195 yr by troeros

This is probably a better discussion for the SORTA/Metro topic, but essentially it costs quite a bit of money to run the HVAC equipment and staff the facility. Since it's an underground facility you need to constantly run HVAC to remove the diesel fumes from buses. The HVAC is also the stated reason why it isn't used for Megabus. It's probably cheaper for Metro to operate primarily out of Government Square. There are obviously downsides to both, but hopefully in the future the RTC can be used for most bus service into/out of Downtown. If you want more discussion about the RTC, I recommend heading to Cincinnati's Riverfront Transit Center.
October 14, 20195 yr Some shots from Saturday night. IMO the crowds gave it such a high energy atmosphere (but very thankful for the pedestrianized streets), the art installations we saw were cool and overall had an awesome time. Our group mostly focused in OTR from the new Kroger up to Findlay Market. Video clip from Findlay Market: 7835422674f8480ca74bb5dd2bf7f0d2.MOV Edited October 14, 20195 yr by urbanetics_

October 15, 20195 yr Author From Sunday. The first photo is 13th and Main. The second is 2nd and Walnut. The remainder are in Covington. I might have a couple of other photos I end up uploading, but this is mostly it for my dump of photos from Blink.
