Cincinnati: Downtown photos taken on 6/14/07

[cincyimages]

I was downtown today with my camera walking around the city to see how Fountain Square has progressed and to see how the other downtown projects has been coming along.  I peaked inside Boi Na Braza and was quite impressed with interior atmosphere.  I asked the hostess questions on pricing and I was quoted $44.99 for dinner per adult and for all the parents out there, they do have a kid’s menu but it is a steep $19.99.  Cadillac Ranch Bar and Grill is progressing nicely, it looks like it will offer ample outdoor seating and should compliment the corner of 6th and Walnut well.  The materials they are using on the exterior look great.  Nicola’s Via Vite is coming along at a snails crawl and it doesn’t appear there was much progress made on the glass cladding behind the Tyler Davidson fountain since Taste of Cincinnati.  I hope to see the cladding complete and the crane removed by the end of July but with how slow that project has been, I won’t hold my breath.     

Here are the photos I took from this afternoon:

Great shots! What lens do you use for your camera?

Nice shots! The whole Fountain Square district is coming along nicely.

That first shot gets one of my favorite aspects of downtown & OTR in Cincinnati.
You can be in the middle of a large city but as you look up the street - you see a wooded hillside in the distance.

very nice...I knew those skywalks had to be good for something

Cadillac Ranch is coming along nicely.  When they first started construction on it, I thought it looked horrible.  They started with just that wood panelling.  But, every day it looks better.  The outdoor seating area will be really nice.

Good stuff! One of the Midwest's greatest-looking cities.

that first shot is awesome.  finally made it to downtown cincy on saturday and was certainly impressed with the amount of people down there.  I know there was a reds game but there just seemed to be a flurry of activity and this impression goes along with the way I have seen it every time I have been down there this year(3 times now)  So imo, DT cincy is well on its way.
