Uptown Cincinnati has a very diverse housing stock, which includes apartments, mixed-use structures, rowhouses, and more traditional single-family homes. Initially developed during the late 19th Century and early 20th Century, the Uptown Neighborhoods were some of the earliest suburbs of Cincinnati, and were connected to the downtown basin via streetcars and interurban rail lines. Today, the Uptown district is more and more being dominated by the University of Cincinnati and the half-dozen hospitals in the district of the city, but maintains some of its historic character and charm, which should be have its protection and preservation balanced with growth of the footprint of the various major institutions in the neighborhood.
This stately brick veneered Victorian mansion is currently in the beginning stages of demolition, as the Cincinnati Children's Hospital across the street continues to expand its footprint and demolish the neighborhood's historic building stock. The amount of disruption and displacement to low-income individuals this expansion will do is not going to be mitigated, and the economic gains from the expansions of medical institutions in Avondale have done little to help the low-income residents of the neighborhood, regardless of the "economic benefits" that the current mayor likes to bring up at every opportunity. The loss of the neighborhood's historic architectural heritage, which is among the best in the city, is an act of vandalism that goes unaddressed by the city government, and needs to be mitigated in the future for the sake of the residents of the neighborhood, and for the neighborhood's ability to effectively reinvigorate itself.
I got to Lower Price Hill a bit too late to document these two historic three-floor brick buildings, a walk-up type apartment and a mixed use building that once housed a grocery. Constructed on State Avenue in the late 19th Century, these buildings are similar to others found in the neighborhood, but had a distinct individuality that has been lost, with all the building materials destined for the landfill. The buildings had been neglected before their abandonment, and left open to the elements, with the roof compromised and upper-floor windows missing, which left the building vulnerable to weathering and rot, which has led to its demolition. At least half a dozen other buildings exist in Lower Price Hill that are in a similar state to how these were before their demolition, and urgently need to be stabilized and secured, with new roof membranes and boards being needed over the windows to ensure their survival as the neighborhood sees some new attention from young people who are moving to the city, as well as to secure possible future low-income housing to ensure the neighborhood doesn't gentrify and become a wealthy enclave.
