alumni live in the Calhoun Dorm or know someone who did? It was a dungeon!
You might have dorm envy now though!
They're scrambling to get it done in the next two weeks.

I’ll never forget the cold chill that went down my spine about 8/10ths of the way through this movie when I realized ”oh f#
@k
! everyone in this movie dies!”
Sometimes I take for granted that living in Cincinnati I am surrounded by history 24/7
This was built 154 years ago and I can’t wrap my head around it.
A new suburban commercial area was built in Regina, Canada. The developers decided to plop a 4 story apartment building right in the middle of sea of parking lots. I tried to find a photo of the views from the balcony, but the photographer clearly didn't want people to see lol🤣
It's hard to believe that someone in Covington's past said, you know what would be awesome? What if we bulldozed a whole neighborhood and built parking lots, and then everyone cheered, hoisted him up on their shoulders and they did it.
I don’t know but I think if you are driving the speed limit whatever curveball life throws you tap the brakes and go on your way instead of whatever happened here.
Once thing I love about bouncing around either side of the river is just tooling around and stumbling across a show stopper like this one in Covington!
I want to live here!
Today on the hottest day downtown this year I’m wondering why the fuck Cincinnati keeps removing trees that provide shade. Do they hate people walking around that much?
I’m sure there is a reason just as much as I’m sure that reason sucks!
First bike ride since my heart attack. I was a little apprehensive about it but turns out that cliché about riding a bike is a cliché for a reason.
Felt awesome getting back out, my arms and ass are gonna need some work though.
I was talking to a project manager from PD&C and he told me they’re gonna start sawing Crosley into chunks and hoisting them down until it gets low enought to jackhammer it. There isn’t any space inside to implode it.
I rode my bike up Vine St hill and into the office for the first time since my heart attack and it was NBD.
That was the last thing I was apprehensive about and now I feel like I'm 100% back.

Another record-setting month for the Cincinnati Streetcar
Highest-ever June Ridership
2nd highest average daily ridership
3rd highest ridership month all-time
@ElleryKlein
Last year potholes were all the rage with local news in Cincinnati and I suggested people could just slow down, they didn’t have to plow through them at highway speeds and a reporter called me a victim blamer.
So I’ve probably been drinking the same Kool-Aid you are.
Anyone else be out on the Central Parkway Bike lane?
This is a welcome addition.
They’ve been working over the last two weeks putting the curbing down.
The city is installing 30 interactive kiosks around downtown/OTR for wayfinding.
Maybe one day in the future people will have interactive thingies in their pockets with a maps thing and a search thing built right into it.
Until that future day these kiosks will be really cool!
Cincinnati City Council passed a complete streets ordinance today. All users must be considered when repaving streets, not just drivers. We're slowly getting to a more equitable city for people no matter how they need to move about.
Thanks

More of this please, I'm tired of faux old buildings, this shows good design can mix in with old buildings. Pretty cool to see affordable housing doesn't have to be drab or depressing.
If you go to the BOE to vote early get readyto run a gauntlet of old people screaming at you to vote no on 1.
I voted YES because fascists can go fuck themselves.
My co-workers were all going on and on about crime in Cincinnati again.
Is it weird that none of my friends ever mention it?
People outside the city are really obsessed with talking about it.
A 15-minute city also means a two-minute coffee for me.
I don’t think I could ever live anywhere I wasn’t a short walk to a coffee shop.
I love this view out my front door.
Interesting that Metro had to remove benches that the elderly were using while waiting for a bus because of advertising.
But 3CDC is going to saturate downtown and OTR with LCD billboards and these things.
You know what else was super cool about
@BLINKcincy
the simple joy of walking around seeing my city with a fresh set of eyes without a care in the world. How often can you stand in the middle of Walnut and think about the juxtaposition of the old and the new?
I met all my closest friends and everyone else in Cincinnati on Twitter, so if it blows up I'm going to miss it.
I'm an introvert so this is the place I can interact with people.
Unpopular opinion: Gambling is stupid.
The news media going on and on about how it will help the state have taken a leave from reality.
People could spend that money almost anywhere else and help their local economy even more.
I still can’t believe

(And thank you Busken for the coffee and donuts BTW!)
Where y’all at ice cream joints?
We are two years into this f00king pandemic, why the hell are we still having performance reviews?
"How do you think you did this past year?"
I didn't die, that's how I'm doing, everything else I did is a cherry on top, deal with it.
Astonishing video of the Duke Energy substation fire in Anderson, observable 20 miles away in Downtown Cincinnati. (If you're wondering why it's green, so are we.)
I’ve been marveling at how bright and open this block of Race St feels lately.
Then I remembered a skywalk was torn down.
It is incredible no one realizes how oppressive they are until they disappear.
I love riding the streetcar during big events, yesterday was so awesome, everyone smiling and having a good time and talking about how cool everything is.
I wish we had this energy all the time but I’ll take it when I can get it.
Remember back in the good old days when people could leave their cars down by the river for 9-10 hours a day?
Thanks to hipsters this is all flowers and swings now!
