Section 2.0 Study Area Characteristics Cincinnati Streetcar Project Environmental Assessment 2.0 STUDY AREA CHARACTERISTICS This chapter describes the characteristics of the populations, neighborhoods, employment centers, activity centers, and transportation facilities and services within the project study area. A discussion of the project’s consistency with local transportation plans developed for the City of Cincinnati, Southwest Ohio Regional Transit Agency (SORTA), and regional entities is also discussed in this chapter. The Cincinnati Streetcar is designed to serve the core of the urban region, which includes the Downtown, Over-the-Rhine (OTR), and Uptown neighborhoods of Cincinnati (Figure 1). These three areas, which are immediately adjacent to one another, comprise the largest and most densely developed employment and activity center in the Greater Cincinnati region. The street network that connects the three areas is constrained by traffic and a significant change in elevation between Downtown and OTR and the Uptown area. Downtown and OTR sit in the basin and are just north of the Ohio River. Uptown’s elevation is a few hundred feet higher. Although interstate highways bracket Downtown and Uptown, they do not allow for connectivity between the three areas. A street grid exists on Downtown and OTR but the street patterns in Uptown are less regular, and feature several “superblocks.” All three areas include sidewalks and are pedestrian-oriented. 2.1 Demographics 2.1.1 Existing Population The study area is a relatively narrow corridor within the larger Downtown, OTR and Uptown areas. The population within the project study area corridor was estimated to be 4,169 in 2009 (Claritas Inc., 2009). This is approximately one percent of the population of the City of Cincinnati, with a population of 331,285. Among the study area population, 1,409, or 42 percent of the population over the age of 16 are employed (Claritas, Inc., 2009). Existing population data were also obtained from the 2000 US Census on a census tract level. The tracts within or partially within the study area are 6, 7, 10, 9, 16, 17, and 25. Tables 1, 2, and 3 show population and housing data for the county, city and study area. Table 1.

This is primarily due to the deterioration and abandonment of the housing stock in OTR, and accompanying out-migration of residents to nearby neighborhoods. It does not reflect the large- scale re-investment in housing in both the Central Business District (CBD) and OTR. This is in the form of conversion of Class B and C office buildings to condominiums and apartments in Downtown Cincinnati and the renovation of deteriorated and/or abandoned housing in OTR that is being undertaken by the Cincinnati Center City Development Corporation (3CDC). 2.1.2 Forecasts Population and employment forecasts are provided by the Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZ) from the Ohio Kentucky Indiana Regional Council of Governments (OKI). According to OKI data, the 2005 population for TAZs in the study area was 11,515 while employment for the TAZs in the study area was 53,513. The 2030 OKI forecast population for TAZs in the study area is 10,658 while the 2030 forecast employment is 56,417. This represents a seven percent decrease in population and five percent increase in employment in the study area between 2005 and 2030. The population and employment forecasts for 2030 are illustrated in Figures 2 and 3.

These activity centers include three major employment districts (riverfront/CBD, OTR and Uptown); several regional entertainment, tourist, and shopping destinations; two major institutions of higher education; and three regional medical centers. The regional importance of the study area is reflected by the number of jobs found within its boundaries. 2.2.1 Downtown Cincinnati/Riverfront/Central Business District Downtown Cincinnati comprises the City’s Riverfront/CBD. Downtown Cincinnati is compact and densely developed, home to numerous historic and modern structures that primarily date from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. The heart of the City of Cincinnati is located downtown. Fountain Square, a popular public square and gathering place for various events located within the study area (Figure 4). A list of activity centers and their location in relation to the streetcar alignment is in Appendix F. Downtown’s major activity centers fall in the following categories: x Employment center: There are approximately 60,000 workers in Downtown Cincinnati. It is a major corporate center and the headquarters location of six Fortune 500 and ten Fortune 1000 companies. x Government center: Downtown is the location of Cincinnati City Hall and associated city offices; the Hamilton County Courthouse, administrative offices, and social service agencies; and several federal installations including the federal office building, federal courthouse and Federal Reserve Bank. x Retail center: Two major department stores- Macy’s and Saks Fifth Avenue, are located downtown along with several retail shops. x Cultural center: Performing arts institutions downtown include the three-theater Aronoff Center for the Arts, Taft Theater, and Cincinnati Shakespeare Theatre. Visual arts institutions include the Contemporary Arts Center, Taft Museum of Art, and several art galleries. Other attractions include the National Underground Railroad Freedom Center and the Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum. x Sports and entertainment center: The Duke Energy Convention Center anchors the western portion of downtown and helps support five major hotels and two additional hotels currently in development. There are several restaurants, bars and nightclubs, and the Fountain Square entertainment district is located within the study area. Along the central riverfront, Major League Baseball’s Cincinnati Reds play at the Great American Ballpark, the National Football League’s Cincinnati Bengals play at Paul Brown Stadium, and minor league and college teams play at the 18,000-seat US Bank Arena, which also hosts other special events. x Residential center: Over the last several years, a renewed interest in Downtown housing has occurred with new construction and the conversion of several large historic structures into loft apartments and condominiums. The Downtown population was 9,026 in 2009, a year when 500 new residential units were completed. More than 2,000 additional residential units are under construction or in the planning stage, with an estimated Downtown population of 12,452 in 2012 (Downtown Cincinnati, Inc. State of Downtown Report, 2009). Page 13 March 2011 Cincinnati Streetcar Project Environmental Assessment Figure 4. Major Activity Centers Page 14 March 2011 Cincinnati Streetcar Project Environmental Assessment The City is undergoing major changes due to an influx of new development and private investment as well as the construction of The Banks project along the riverfront. Nearly $3.5 billion has been recently invested in the urban core of Cincinnati (including the riverfront of adjacent Northern Kentucky), and it is anticipated that more investment will take place. Two major construction projects will be completed in 2011. The first is the Great American Tower at Queen City Square which opened in January 2011. The tower is located at Fourth and Sycamore streets; one block east of the proposed streetcar alignment. The second is “The Banks” project, a mixed use development along the riverfront featuring housing, retail, office space and a hotel. The first phase is scheduled to open in June 2011. The proposed streetcar alignment also directly serves The Banks. 2.2.2 Over-the-Rhine (OTR) OTR is a neighborhood in Cincinnati located between the region’s largest activity and employment centers, Downtown and Uptown. It is bordered by the CBD, the Clifton Heights- University Heights-Fairview (CUF) neighborhood, and the neighborhoods of Mount Auburn, Pendleton, and West End. OTR covers 306 acres and is listed as a historical district on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), containing the largest collection of 19th century Italianate architecture in the United States (see Section 5.18 for cultural resource discussion).

  • FINANCING REGIONAL RAIL TRANSIT WITHOUT RAISING TAXES April 2018
    FINANCING REGIONAL RAIL TRANSIT WITHOUT RAISING TAXES April 2018 SLIDE 1: Title Slide Let me first take this opportunity to thank you for inviting me to speak to you. When I first introduced the idea of financing rail transit lines without raising taxes to Mayor Cranley 18 months ago, he of course expressed dubious skepticism, but then said “Who could be against that?” Since then, I have launched a new website, growsmartplanet.org, to encourage cities like ours to plan transit-oriented, sustainable growth throughout their regions and finance the new rail and bus rapid transit lines that make it possible – without raising taxes or waiting years for scarce federal funds. I hope you will find this idea compelling and will help me spread the word to everyone needed to help make this new funding approach feasible here. Cincinnati once had 222 miles of streetcar lines that were built much faster – with local funds - than the short downtown streetcar line opened in 2016. If we look closely at why voters did not support the 2002 MetroMoves regional rail and bus transit plan, you will see why I think we should try again now with an even better plan that provides fast, frequent service to all parts of the region. SLIDE 2: Questions that Impact Transit Plans Public officials and transportation planners should seek consensus from diverse groups on questions like these when planning transportation systems. Their answers all impact what modes of transportation they will most likely support. Most people easily agree on just two things: they want someone else to pay for new highways or public transit lines, and they want lower taxes.

  • Mill Creek Watershed Scenario Project Report
    Comprehensive Planning Workshop Spring 2010 Niehoff Urban Studio 2008-2010 Mill Creek Watershed Scenario Project Spring 2010 Executive Summary This report is a collective presentation of the studio process undertaken by the University of Cincinnati’s School of Planning 2010 Spring Comprehensive Workshop. The focus of the workshop was the Mill Creek Watershed, a 166 square mile area in southwestern Ohio. The Watershed has reached a critical state due to a multitude of both internal and external factors including industrial flight, environmental degradation, building vacancies, unemployment, auto dependence, and a worsening national economy. While numerous organizations construct and implement plans for the future of the Watershed, a lack of regional collaboration often results in little progress. Over the past century, the Mill Creek brought industry and increased population to the Watershed area. Today, the Mill Creek still remains a valuable natural asset. Urbanization has taken its toll, however, and both water quality and riparian corridor health have suffered. Another area of concern is the loss of population in the City of Cincinnati, and corresponding redistribution to the suburbs. Limited transportation options have worsened this outmigration by encouraging auto dependence. Social and environmental justice issues coincide with declining economic and environmental conditions in the Mill Creek Watershed. Due to its uncertain future, planning in the Mill Creek Watershed requires the consideration of multiple possibilities for how the area will transform. This Workshop used the scenario planning approach to establish four plausible outcomes for the Watershed. Scenario planning seeks to open discussions about how things may unfold, providing the opportunity for individuals and organizations to look beyond their individual plans and concerns for the future.

  • 2001-2002 Port Biennial Report
    Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority In the latter part of 2000, the City of Cincinnati, Ohio and Hamilton County, Ohio collaborated to create the Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority. This new entity would reconstitute an existing port authority that the two governments had formed earlier to spearhead the redevelopment of brownfield sites. Our newly created Port Authority was given a dual mission of overseeing The Banks Central Riverfront Project envisioned by the City, the County, and the Riverfront Advisors Commission, as well as continuing the brownfield redevelopment activities of our predecessor agency. Thus, we began our mission with a vision for a strong, vibrant Greater Cincinnati Region and rich opportunities to plan and build on economic development successes for future generations. Our Mission The mission of the Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority is two-fold: •It is charged with the implementation of the Central Riverfront Urban Design Master Plan for the mixed-use redevelopment of Cincinnati’s Central Riverfront Area, commonly referred to as “The Banks.” •It is also charged with facilitating the redevelopment of properties in Hamilton County that are environmentally contaminated or perceived to be contaminated and are now vacant, abandoned, idle or underutilized due to the real or perceived contamination. On cover, top left: John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge; bottom left: River Road Maritime Facility PORT OF GREATER CINCINNATI DEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY 1 ANNUAL REPORT 2001-2002 To the Greater Cincinnati Community, The past year has been a very active one for the Port of Greater Cincinnati Development Authority. For while we are only two years old, we have matured and grown, demonstrating the important role that a port authority can play in encouraging and implementing economic development in our region.
