Kind of did myself. Flew under the radar but another few weeks to build up some interest.
I think the downfall of it hasn't helped. At least in my opinion it's gotten steadily worse each iteration.
The heads of prominent civil rights and anti-discrimination groups, along with faith-based groups, have joined a list of supporters of Issue 1.

Pete Rose ended his career as MLB's all-time hits leader.
>The company would bring between 60 and 200 employees to its Cincinnati headquarters, Barrett said.
In addition, a new one will probably appear next year. >Greater Cincinnati will likely add still another Fortune 500 company next year when the list comes out in May or June. GE Aerospace, which became a standalone locally based company in April 2024, would have ranked No. 140 on the 2024 Fortune 500 with $31.8 billion in 2023 revenue had it been a standalone company as of the end of 2023. It will almost certainly show up on next year’s roster.

> Apologies for not putting a reminder up but Oktoberfest Zinzinnati is back and running through Sunday. Here's a short "review" of how it seems now that it's down at Sawyer Point. > > #### Space > First things first- it feels way, way more open and manageable. Time will tell with bigger crowds that will come this weekend but the initial impression is it feels much better. You can move around, plenty of seating, and they wisely oriented food trucks and booths away from each other so the lines don't run into each other like we always had on 5th, etc. > > #### Ambiance > Also tons better. You get the great view of the river right there, the shade of the trees, and no heat coming back at you from asphalt. The Festzelt (main tent) is quite large and has nice attention to detail on the inside. There are a few biergartens spread about and the use of the Serpentine Wall for extra performance space is great. Plenty of beer booths spread about, a decent amount of food options as well. Lastly- the huge flags flying over Sawyer Point are a great touch. > > #### Parking > From what I hear pretty good. Lots of space on Eggleston and you can of course park over in KY if you're on that side to begin with and just walk over the purple people bridge. > > #### Transit and pedestrian > Pretty good overall though not as convenient as 5th or 2nd/3rd. Closest bus stops are probably Govt Square. The streetcar of course drops off at 2nd and that isn't a terrible walk to the west entrance. Biking is accessible with lots of places to lock up (trees or other) or taking a red bike right to the entrance of the purple people bridge (assuming there is an open slot to lock it). Pedestrian access is great as there is no fencing unlike Riverfest so you can approach from any which way. > > #### Cons > Not many that I've seen so far. Time will tell about the ability to handle crowds but the one notable "con" (oddity rather) is that they put all the wares vendors over on the far east side of the fest space. Make sure to go visit them as there is some cool stuff that way.] > > Prost!
Reactions from both Bengals and commissioners.
This is absolutely absurd and should be laughed out of the room. No more taxpayer money for billionaires!

Initial reports said 900 million but CBC and Fox19 are both reporting 1.2-1.3 billion so I'm leaning towards that being it.
Wódka Bar, an Eastern European-style cocktail bar in Over-the-Rhine, seems to have closed permanently. The bar, known for its extensive vodka list, is listed as permanently closed on Facebook and Google, and its website is now private.

>Arnold said widening such overpasses is possible, but not in the plans today.
>“There is room to do additional width on Fifth Street. Seventh and Eighth have the potential for extra width. It’s about where does it make sense,” he said. “If the city says, ‘We’d like to do this,’ we can find ways to allow for it in the future.”
What a load of crap. 4 billion plus but we can't do this? Carries 2+% of GDP but we can't make it so it works for the city?
Cincinnati has been named one of three finalists to host the Sundance Film Festival beginning in 2027. The decision follows a thorough evaluation by the Sundance Institute, which highlighted Cincinnati’s arts dedication and community spirit. The final host city will be announced in 2025.

We shall see. Had one down in OTR (basically downtown) but it folded after a couple years. I'm not sure myself how big the market is for it here.
Which is really saying something since during the Cranley admin we basically regressed.
Excited for you guys though. Hopefully a turning point.
I might be old but I just don't get it. Carrying an ID is not hard and works regardless of whether your phone has enough battery or you even have it on you.
I don't understand why they are moving their office right to Government Square but then thinking of moving all the bus stops to the Transit Center.
Local firm GBBN designed the bar and lounge, which features a 9-foot-by-36-foot video wall to watch sports, with other large TVs around the space to provide a view from every angle.

I kind of want to try that Camp burger. It sounds delicious in the worst way.
RIP. All I've ever heard is he was a great guy.
Unsure if this will delay the BSB companion bridge or force better changes for everyone involved.
I think either that or at least a station in Dayton on the 3C line would be pretty clutch.
Can't help but feel bad for someone getting so severely injured. But yeah, I know it's a pain to wait but man, should've just waited til end of day.
The Federal Railroad Administration is advancing two new Amtrak routes that would run through Cincinnati as the agency and Congress consider whether to add new long-distance passenger train routes of 750 miles or more to the nation’s rail infrastructure.
