27 Photographs of Cincinnati at Sunset
Cincinnati, Ohio is a city amongst itself. Surrounded by hills with gorgeous overlooks of a rebounding metropolis, the Queen City is the cultural and industrial hub for the region, and is still the state’s third largest city. After spending a sizable amount of time on the road chasing fall foliage throughout Kentucky, Ohio and West Virginia, I settled in for the last of the fall colors in Cincinnati.
St. Paul Catholic Church peeks out amongst the historic stock in Over-the-Rhine.
While in Fairview, I took advantage of some light to capture the rehabilitated Hughes High School and Fairview School.
The Madison and Woodburn Historic District is centered around the neo-gothic Saint Francis De Sales Church at Madison Road and Woodburn Avenue and the Woodburn Avenue business district. Most of the historic stock in the district date to 1880 to 1910 when East Walnut Hills was booming as a streetcar suburb.
The Gilbert-Sinton Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983 with 87 contributing buildings. The district is approximately 13 acres in size and is bordered by Gilbert Avenue, Morris Street and Sinton Avenue.
Most of the district was constructed by several real estate developers from 1880 until around 1900, and most of the upscale residences that were designed in the Queen Anne and Shingle architectural style. The neighborhood was served by a streetcar along Sinton Avenue and a cable car on Gilbert Avenue. The cable car line was the first in the city.
The Gilbert-Sinton Historic District also includes the separately listed Madam Fredin’s Eden Park School and Neighboring Row House on Morris Street.
