A 1.6 mile walk through historic Over-the-Rhine on the National Register of Historic Places. The city’s largest area of Italianate architecture in the country. We will tour eastern Over-the-Rhine featuring Greek Revival and early Italianate townhomes, one of the oldest and rare federal houses from 1834. We will walk along one of the loveliest streets downtown with well-kept houses. Then to North Main Street, one of the finest intact late 19th Century commercial streetscapes in the city, known for its independent and artistic spirit. Colorful and interesting. Then to Washington Park, Cincinnati’s second oldest park, a band stand, and mature trees. Next block over is our Music Hall, a fine commercial masterpiece designed by Samuel Hannaford. Designed in High Victorian Gothic.  Head back east on 13th. At Vine Street choose to grab some grub at a popular eatery, enjoying the outdoors; and/or capture images of the Vine Street commercial district. When finished, go south a block or two to 13th Street and turn left. Walk 3 blocks to Main Street, zig right zag left continuing on 13th and back to our starting point a block ahead.
