No clue, but it makes me think of waterworks, utilities, etc.

Jillian's

If that is Jillians then we need a redo.  This is a Cincinnati Trivia Thread not a Covington Trivia Thread. ;)

I thought I could throw some people off by slipping in a Covington shot, but John's too sharp for that.  It is indeed the building that housed Jillian's.

 

Originally home to the Bavarian Brewing Company, this urban castle is composed of many additions throughout the years.

 

Note its proud teutonic architecture:

Have no photos. Don owes us a 452__ shot.

Go again Don.

Name the street that this photo was taken from:

Scenic Drive or Ohio Avenue?

West Clifton?

Mulberry?

Four "no's" so far...

 

 

McMicken?

peete st? or hastings?

bottom of Flora?

Conroy?

Kirk Alley?

Six more "no's."

 

All of your choices are good...I'm going to post some shots of the street to give you more of a hint.

 

This Cincinnati street runs perpendicular to Clifton Avenue and is within walking distance of the University of Cincinnati.

Most of its properties have undergone significant renovation, and combined with the view makes this a desirable area.

The shaded street has many delightful touches, such as wrought iron fencing:

Wow, that high up the hill?  So, Klotter?

Bingo, RiverViewer...

You're Up!

 

Wow...that's just much further up the hill than I thought, gauging from the relative height of the Kroger building...how about that!  Great trivia question, Don - you got us all out looking at maps, lining up PNC with Carew with Kroger!

 

 

Nowhere near as clever a question as Don's, but this is one of my favorite benches ever, and since I haven't had an excuse to post it before, how about now?

Some bench in Ault Park?

I have no idea where that is, but it is awesome....very heartwarming

Yeah, I love that bench...sorry, not Ault Park...

 

Some bench in Ault Park?

 

Best answer yet... lol  Nice wording.

17 hour hint time...here's another view, same bench:

Eden Park overlook area.

Yes, Eden Park, in the lower overlook area, just north of the Twin Lakes.  You're up!

How about this cemetery?  Hint - it's not Spring Grove!

Walnut Hills Cemetery?

Calvary Cemetery?

Laurel Cemetery?

 

;)

Yeah, not much to go on there...I was going to grab a better shot of it this morning, but wasn't able to swing by...

 

Anyway, your first guess is right - Walnut Hills Cemetery.

 

Name this neighborhood:

Sedamsville, from Bold Face Park, where Pete Rose learned to play baseball.

Sedamsville

 

EDIT: John beat me to it!

 

:-)

Don, please post one.

Name this neighborhood:

It looks so much nicer from a distance. I use to live right there on Delhi ave..above meters t shirts...before they made the building look nice... fun times.

Let's see if anyone can get this one.  Name the street and the neighborhood of this wonderful home:

Tusculum Avenue?

Not Tusculum...though it would certainly fit right in on that street.

 

Like Tusculum, this street climbs towards the sky-- you could even say "to the heavens."

 

Here's a photograph of the street:

Celestial Street, Mt. Adams

Hill Street, Mt. Adams?

Definately Celestial Street.
