If I get a chance this weekend, I'm going to try to respond to the News Record article. One UC media outlet calling out another UC media outlet.

If you do, please mention the 1,800 homeless children in NKY (according to the local news last night...wlwt special report on homeless children - so the number and story are probably uber-sensationalized). I would ask that woman to help those children rather than making a charity case out of OTR.

Whoops. Try this link. It seemed that there was an entryway previously. They are installing new partions.

An upscale beauty salon is going there. The entrance on the side was relocated to the front of the building.

^Thanks for the update. I actually asked my landlord last night and he confirms that as well. It will be a welcome addition to a long-vacant corner parcel. Now they need to fill Central and Jackson with a tenant!

That means there will soon be another salon option for you so that you don't have to drive all the way out to Kenwood.

Sherman Cahal · « **Reply #964 on:** April 24, 2009, 02:53:53 PM »

LOL

I wasn't needing a salon. I was needing a day spa!!

I know I keep my nails all nice and clean, but not like that!

"Of the 86 condos part of the first two phases 77 percent have been sold, and 12 percent of the 106 units planned for the third phase are under contract..."

That is a very strong following, to have the first two phases 77% sold.

Gateway 1 alone lists 16 open units, so the rest of the buildings must be pretty much sold out.

UncleRando · « **Reply #969 on:** April 28, 2009, 03:33:13 PM »

Those are some very solid numbers.

Working with this for a while, I may get working to update it more...

From product quality and mix to the competence and enthusiasm of the sales team, it is no surprise things are going as well as they are. What is also encouraging are the comments on Cincinnati.com's site (that was posted above by BDRUF) from existing residence and their first hand accounts of their experience in the Q and their perceptions of OTR today and continued optimism for the future.

Some photos from today...

1. Fourteenth & Vine infill project looking northwest along Vine Street.

2. Fourteenth & Vine infill project looking southwest from Vine Street.

3. Fourteenth & Vine infill project street-level detail (diggin' the large balconies).

4. Sweet building along Vine Street currently owned by 3CDC...would make for great offices if you ask me.

5. Lackman Lofts renovation project looking southeast from 13th & Republic streets (check out the massive balconies added to the back of this building).

6. The Lofts of Mottainai renovation project facade detail (love the colors).

7. The Lofts of Mottainai renovation project looking northeast from Republic Street.

8. Renovation project from Tender Mercies along 12th Street looking south from Republic Street.

Great working going on down there. I really don't like the blue and green colors they put on the 14th and Vine building, though.

CincyIntheKnow · « **Reply #974 on:** May 04, 2009, 07:04:18 PM »

Last I had heard #4 is slated to be offices, and 3CDC will occupy the top floor.

taestell · « **Reply #975 on:** May 05, 2009, 01:23:16 AM »

Not sure how much work there is to be done, but 14th & Vine feels unfinished.

Paint on the Mottainai project looks awesome.

Agreed on Mottainai, we shall see on the other.

Does the bottom floor of 14th & Vine remind anyone else of the Thai Cafe on Ludlow?

"#4" is where the infamous old Warehouse goth club was. That was there when that stretch was *effing* rough. People calling Shadow Hare out for not patrolling Over-the-Rhine in costume forget that there was a time when dozens of goths used to walk the gauntlet in and out of that place every weekend.

Also a scene from Little Man Tate was shot in that building, but I've never seen that movie.

edale · « **Reply #978 on:** May 05, 2009, 04:35:12 AM »

^That's so funny. Those goths had balls!

dmerkow · « **Reply #979 on:** May 05, 2009, 12:32:30 PM »

Ah the Warehouse. I only heard stories. I'm guessing white kids in Goth probably scared the locals more than the other way around - esp. in its mid-90s peak.

That building has a Sub-basement where they used to brew and store beer back in the day. All stone with vaulted ceilings. Easily one of the coolest spaces in OTR.

mcmicken · « **Reply #984 on:** May 06, 2009, 09:19:16 AM »

^
They did not brew beer in the existing structure, but the site previously was the Peter Noll Cincinnati Brewery. Many buildings in Over-the-Rhine have deep basements and sub-basements that were rented out to store and lager the beer, though the actual brewing took place only in the breweries themselves.

ProkNo5 · « **Reply #985 on:** May 06, 2009, 10:29:32 AM »

Wow, that's a lot of stories to come out of one building.

Where are the stairs in Lackman Lofts, #5? It looks like the building's only 20 feet wide all the way to Vine St. Do they split the building in half East-West, or are they just really thin and run along the South wall?

The St. X Memory project discussion has been moved to this thread (it's the only one I could really think to merge it with):

Some photos from the gorgeous Falling Wall project located at 1419 Main Street and done by Urban Sites. Most every unit is two stories tall and each unit includes their own private rooftop deck. The walk-in closets for these are enormous and the finishes are terrific with every bit of space being used wonderfully. The name Falling Wall comes from the artistic elements incorporated into each of the units where a prominent wall has been put at an angle to give it an appearance of falling - very neat.

1. This unit was being prepped for a cooking demonstration and wine tasting for Second Sundays on Main.

2. Here is the bathroom for that same unit. Love the shower and love that there is a full-sized tub to go with it.

3. View looking northeast from that unit's private rooftop deck (grill safe).

4. Same deck, looking northwest.

5. A different unit now, looking down from the master bedroom into the kitchen/living room space.

6. Inside the model unit now looking over the kitchen and dining room.

7. Living room view to the courtyard outside.

8. Dining room with staircase in background leading to the private rooftop deck.

9. Kitchen island that doubles as a breakfast bar of sorts.

That's a pretty sweet pad. Are those rental or condo? What's the price range?

That is damn sexy.
