Posted February 18, 200817 yr New photos: OTR Part II Here is a series of photos I took on January 26, 2008. The first shots are from the 2000 block of Elm Street, where Bryon Martin is considering building a brewpub if the streetcar is approved. The stone building pictured is the former Christian Moerlein brewery offices. Afterwards, I dropped by Findlay Market. The final photos are just me driving around an killing time, and then stopping off at Two Centennial Plaza to pick up some documents. Access all 2,180 of my Cincinnati photos in my Photobucket gallery. 1. 2. 3. 4. Vodka ad in the Brewery District.... 5. Sweet. 6. 7. 8. 9. This would've been so cool as condos. 10. On to Findlay Market. 11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. 19. 20. 21. 22. 23. Fire at City West, West End. 24. On to Mount Auburn...a barricaded building. 25. 26. 27. 28. 29. 30. Downtown trash. 31. I'd give an arm and an arm (and a head) for more OTR photos!
February 18, 200817 yr Yikes Kevin, I never heard about #23. When did one of the buildings in CityWest catch on fire. It is rare to see a newer building like that deal with fire. Overall, great collection. There is quite a bit of difference from the Over-the-Rhine in my gallery I just posted here: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,15347.0.html and this one. We have a long way to go but I think the momentum will continue in a positive direction.
February 18, 200817 yr Yikes Kevin, I never heard about #23. When did one of the buildings in CityWest catch on fire. It is rare to see a newer building like that deal with fire. From what I recall, there was a two-alarm fire there in mid-December. The condo is condemned, but I don't think there are any plans on what to do with it yet.
February 18, 200817 yr Great stuff...although it looks pretty cold. Right now I'm enjoying 70 degree weather down here in Baton Rouge. :-D
February 19, 200817 yr We have a long way to go but I think the momentum will continue in a positive direction. Before this passed Saturday, I had no experience with the neighborhood either. I fell in love with it through photos and reputation. I took a vacation down there for the weekend, and I had no clue that so many people just stood around. It's amazing. Aren't there laws against loitering like that? Anyway, the Gateway Quarter looks great and I will be with you guys every step of the way, on the long fight for OTR. Oh, and don't let anything bad happen to Findlay Market, that place is a jewel, and I can't bear to see it fall prey too. My thoughts on Cincinnati are keeping me warm through the bitter Milwaukee winter.

February 20, 200817 yr I love the "urban art". Where is pic 5 located? Almost directly across the street from pic #1, which is at 2019 Elm Street. PigBoy...It's even weirder when you go into one of those one-story buildings and realize it's actually three stories built into the hillside with a deck and a city view!
