I'm seeing a lot of actual AND potential coolness in those pics.
Cincinnati city proper, like many rust belt cities, has experienced dramatic population loss over the years ... and like those other cities, it is starting to stabilize. Probably a lot of potential in those older buildings.
Such beautiful old architecture and neighborhoods. Good bones.

Great pictures! Springtime city photo threads are some of my favorites. I've never had the pleasure of visiting Cincinnati, but I'm always stunned at how well-preserved (and beautiful) so many of those blocks are.
Amazing artifacts that should make Cincinnati a major tourist destination. Why isn't this city more popular? I'm sure there are a few reasons but this place should be one of America's top cities, as popular as Boston, Washington, and maybe even San Francisco.
What's great about this thread is that it doesn't just show "inner-city" Cincinnati (as we locally call the Basin) but also outer-neighborhoods as well like Northside, O'Bryonville, East Walnut Hills, and Hyde Park. But summit street does that kind of thread diversity so it's to be expected. And thus, well done.
