I mainly stick to the photography forums, but I have a (hopefully) quick question about OTR.  The two housing towers: what are the names of those buildings?  You can clearly see them from 75.  Anyone know?

moonlightOhio, you gotta check out more than just the photo forums.  :wink:

 

There is an OTR thread here, check there, in addition, this question might be better suited for that existing thread.

Cool.  In the off chance that it's not in the OTR thread, if anyone knows the answer, feel free to either post it here, there or PM me.  Thanks!

The two towers you see from I-75 are probably the Stanley Rowe Towers in the West End, not OTR.  They're owned by the Cincinnati Metropolitan Housing Authority, and I believe are for senior citizens.

Senior citizens, huh?  I never would have guessed.  They remind me of the towers in The Wire, the ones that were controlled by Avon Barksdale.  I was looking to take some photos, but I didn't want to deal with drug dealers or anything like that.  Hopefully if it's a senior citizens project, there won't be any of that.

Actually, I just looked the Stanley Rowe Towers up and they're not the ones I'm talking about.  Those are further south and on the opposite side of 75.  I'm talking about the two high rises near Findlay Market.

They sit north of Liberty, right?

Yeah, I'm looking at them on the Street View option of Google Maps and they're at the corner of Linn and Poplar.
