2006 was a busy year for me in terms of travel. It felt that I was on the road more than I was in town. Here is a summary of the photos I took of Cincinnati throughout 2006. The rest can be found at www.cincyimages.com.

So many good pics I could comment on; I chose this one: Normally pictures of kids just make me roll my eyes, but this one looks so sincere and so cute, I love it!

Wow! Cincinnati is an amazing looking city. I visited once about 2 years ago to see a Reds game. It was pretty much an in and out type of trip. My friend and I drove around downtown and there was surprisingly a lot of activity. Fountain Sqaure (I think that is what it's called) was really nice. I was expecting a typical Midwestern deserted downtown, but was pleasantly surprised.

Also, how is the Over-The-Rhine neighborhood doing? I see there is a beautiful housing stock, but the neighborhood fell on hard times and then there was that riot a few years back. I've heard it is getting gentrified quickly.

Oh, and one of my friends from Cincinnati was telling me about how they planned on building a subway a long time ago and some of the infrastructure looked like it was in place down by the stadium when I was there. He also mentioned that there was a proposal for light rail to go there and throughout the metro, but it was rejected. Any chance of this comin back and being passed? How viable would such a system be in Cincinnati?

It looks like a great town and I would love to explore it some more. OTR looks like a good place to invest and the geography of Cincy is so cool.

Yes, OTR is going through heavy amounts of gentrification. Old row houses are being converted into Condos, etc ... An old out-of-date bar district has plans to become an arts and upscale district. Basically, entire blocks are secretly being purchased by developers. Check out www.UrbanOhio.com and check out the OTR threads in the "Projects" category.

Things are looking pretty good for a streetcar system in the near future, connecting Uptown with Downtown. LRT is probably a little more out there as far as time. I don't feel too positive about the current subway. The boom of the Highways and Interstates shut this plan down and was the answer to every American ... and yes, the banks of the Ohio are in the plans for the streetcar system. Please check out www.UrbanOhio.com and go to "Transportation".
