Hyde Park has some amazing assets in Cincinnati, including a large portion of the Wasson Way trail. This will be a small section of the CROWN - a 34 mile urban loop for pedestrians and bikers alike to move around the city. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #HydePark #Cincinnati
Hyde Park is an amazing neighborhood on the East Side of Cincinnati that recently updated their neighborhood plan. The historic square was created in the late 19th century and is still home to some great local businesses. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #HydePark #Cincinnati

Big thanks to the East End Area Council for having me at their meeting this evening. Great group of people very involved in their community.
The Hoffman School is a beautiful historic structure in Evanston that I tried to preserve on Council back in 2023. The building has been vacant but I still believe there is a path to turn this amazing structure into housing. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Evanston #Cincinnati
Have a great weekend!
This phase of the Wasson Way in Evanston is not only an exciting addition to the CROWN network, but a crucial link between Cincinnati's major universities. Soon, riders will be able to use this path to travel from Clifton to as far as Lunken Airport. #Jeffreyswalksthe52 #Evanston #Cincinnati #UC

Have a great weekend!
