A new era for Downtown Cincinnati is emerging, and The Enquirer is launching an interactive series on its future.
Over the next several months, we will explore the state of living and working Downtown, as well as what future development may look like. We'll host in-person and online engagement opportunities with you to gain insight into what you care about when it comes to Downtown.
We're asking you: If Downtown is going to prosper well into the 21st century, what needs to change? What should stay the same? What is going to bring it back to economic vitality after a pandemic obliterated much of the daytime population?
We want your help mapping out Downtown Cincinnati's future.
