Mayor Aftab Pureval and City Manager Sheryl Long’s budget plan will spend down the rest of the city’s share of pandemic-era rescue funds on one-time expenses after revenue projections came in much better than expected, eliminating a projected $26.4 million budget deficit.

it has just unveiled the second in line: Hawaiian Wedding Cake. Graeter's describes the flavor as a decadent mix of coconut and pineapple flavors.

Sounds like everyone. Big get I think for downtown. Always good to have more businesses coming in.

Long time coming. Glad to see it's being done. Will be quite a good link between Fountain Square and whatever new development will be on Race, etc.

Certainly looks a heck of a lot better than it did. Would love a brewery or something to go in there.

Over the past few years, the organization has slowly been working to stabilize the building. It got quite the facelift with a new paint job, a security gate, new windows and a new roof. “The next step is getting that first floor renovated and leased,” Prigge said.

Sometimes Cincinnati Biz Courier links are posted. These are mostly paywalled. IF you have a library card then you can view the articles by doing the following steps:

  • Visit the library magazine/newspaper section.
  • Click on Cincinnati Business Courier there and log in if needed.
  • For now, manually find the link that was posted here (I will try to figure out a way to auto format links or something so it takes you right to it at some point.)

Very cool looking building. Awesome to hear they want to convert the surface lot just south of it to mixed apartments/condos too. Time to fill downtown back up with residents.

TLDR- new nonstop flights are to Charlotte, Fort Lauderdale, Minneapolis, and Houston.

Personally I think Lindy lost my vote (and perhaps others.) From everything I've read she was an unmitigated disaster and to go and defend her? Read the room buddy.

The gist is that the player's union contract runs through 2030 and the TV contract through 2033. Along with that, the current offer by the Bengals has taxpayers on the hook for 86% of the costs vs. 14% put in by the team. That was also for just a five year lease as of the email dated August 8, 2023.

It most definitely looks like the Bengals are looking to fleece the county yet again despite being worth 4 billion dollars.

Word I get is far less crashes/accidents and makes it nicer to be a pedestrian. Great for folks who live in the area (I know our speed bumps in my neighborhood made a dramatic difference). I don't get up to College Hill enough to know about these particular ones.

I would guess we all don't really care if commuters add another 30 seconds to their trip.

That's pretty nifty.

But then again, at that point you're in Nashville...

[-] curve@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Didn't even know it was going on.

I've had good experiences with some places on restaurant week (though maybe it was just Cincinnati Restaurant Week) but you do have to do some homework I feel like before going. At least to get a decent deal and a decent meal.

I find it odd they can't get those storefronts leased. What is the issue? Too high of rent or..? Plenty of potential customers literally above and around them.

I think the idea of building more and building freaking surface lots should be a nonstarter too. No reason for surface lots pretty much anywhere in the city. Want parking? Put it in a garage.
