Two years ago:
- A gallery of 27 Corryville photos was added to Building Cincinnati, and the Avondale gallery was updated.
- Cincinnati agreed to sell two vacated streets to developer Al Neyer, Inc. for the retail portion of Columbia Square in Columbia Tusculum.
- A Google Maps mashup on the Community Walk website showed the location and photos of Cincinnati's public steps.
- A new single-family home at 459 Strafer Street in Columbia Tusculum was completed, and a new home was nearing completion at Excelsior Row in Mount Auburn.
- In Covington, two public meetings were being held for the Madison Avenue Form District Study, a proposal for an overlay that would make the stretch of road between 12th Street/Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd and the KY-16/KY-17 split more predestrian-friendly.
- Cities such as San Diego, Cleveland, Providence, and Flint -- and Cincinnati -- were using creative ways to get foreclosed homes back into the hands of homeowners.
