Cincinnati, Ohio

Under the team's lease with the county, taxpayers would have been entitled to some of the money from the naming rights deal, but the team has told the county it will get nothing.

Back in 2022, if the Bengals sold the naming rights and the net revenue the team received was $60 million or less, the county was entitled to nothing. It was entitled to 30% of revenue above that level.

So basically the team told all of us taxpayers to go fuck ourselves. How nice.

Quite gnarly out there. I haven't seen this much snow in one go in quite a bit.

Post pics if you got them. And I'd still recommend staying off the roads even now unless you gotta be out. Time for some cocoa and relaxation.

Former is for good, latter is until the building ownership issue clears up.

Sure we've lose some restaurants (which always happens) but let's look ahead to see what is coming this year.

Wasson Way's phase 6B through Xavier University is complete. A portion of phase 6B through Xavier University’s campus has finished construction, running from Montgomery Road to Station Way.

Long an eyesore, this building at the SE corner of 4th and Race got tax credits. Sits next to the McAlpin condos (or close to).

I've walked past this so many times and it's always been empty. Would love to see some good use out of it.

First 100 guests get free lunch. Service started December 13. That goes til Dec 20.

Opened in the historic Salmon P. Chase building.

TLDR- maybe remove height restrictions. Somehow this is still contingent on the Bengals approval FYI.

Developer Shree Kulkarni’s current plan to build a new extended-stay hotel in Walnut Hills near the Interstate 71/Martin Luther King Jr. interchange is dead after the Cincinnati Planning Commission voted unanimously Friday, Dec. 6, to reject it.

The planning staff said the project did not align enough with Walnut Hills’ neighborhood plan because it was too auto-oriented, does not line up with the scale of the single-family homes near it and lacked community support.

Crazy how the campus has changed.

Located at 13th and Walnut in OTR. It's the only Ohio restaurant on the list as well.

Going to be located across from Inwood Park.

TLDR- Mid March 2025.

• A new arena would cost between $675 million and $800 million.
• Public funding may cover 70% of the costs.
• Sites near the Duke Energy Convention Center are considered the most desirable

Oh yay, yet another thing for the taxpayers to fund...

Keystone Hotel Group is building a 109-key Home2 Suites by Hilton at the site of the historic former Chong building at 614 and 616 Race St.

Patel in April told Cincinnati City Council’s budget committee that his investment is a direct result of the city, county and 3CDC’s plans to overhaul the Duke Energy Convention Center, build a new headquarters hotel and develop a new district around them.

The Archdiocese of Cincinnati has enlisted CBRE’s Travis Likes and John Schenk to market the former St. Louis Church building at 29 E. Eighth St., with an asking price of $2 million.
