3CDC

The property on West Fifth Street Downtown has been vacant since the department store closed in 2022. The city purchased the building for $3 million earlier this year.

From a convention center district to converting offices into residential, new developments are bringing changes to downtown Cincinnati.

A city-sponsored working group has been meeting since November and conducted a survey of businesses and residents. Nearly 50 business owners said crime is too big a problem.

Cincinnati Council is expected to approve $460,000 for 3CDC's small business pop-up program, which will offer short-term leases for vacant storefronts on Main Street.

Cincinnati Center City Development Corp shares what changes and renovations are coming to north Over-the-Rhine near Findlay Market.

Cincinnati and Hamilton County officials are kicking in annual funds to help 3CDC purchase the parking garage.

Local officials are closer to building a new convention hotel in Cincinnati, but funding for the project is still a bit uncertain.

The design for a new recreation center in Over-the-Rhine may include a roller skating rink after all, thanks to a flood of public comment.

Plus, four developers have ideas for building a $500-million convention hotel to replace the Millennium.

The plan calls for converting nearby Yukon Street and Woodward Street into civic and green space, which 3CDC President Steve Leeper says will improve pedestrian safety.
