Hello:

I am looking for pictures of the 9th Street Historic District in Cincinnati from prior to 1970. I'm particularly interested in the corner of 9th and Race Streets. The only old picture I have found is the one below, showing Trinity Church (which still exists, but without the steeple) and the Brittany Building on the far right (still standing as well - this is where I live!). I'm also interested in any information you may have on the history of the Brittany Building (formerly Brittany Apartments).Thanks in advance for your help!

Other things to look up include the Law School which was behind the Phoenix Club.  And 9th Street Baptist Church which was next to that.  They basically were where the parking garage is now.

Hanaford & Sons did a design for a new 9th Street Baptist in the 30's that was never executed.  This rendering shows the new building with the Phoenix on the right.
