I’ve been crazy busy at work lately, and haven’t had much of a chance to get out and wander around downtown for a bit. But I was walking to get my hair cut this afternoon and I couldn’t help but notice that there’s a lot of construction going on in downtown Cincinnati again.

They’re still trying to demolish the last little bit of The Dennison Hotel. Apparently, there was some sort of shared common wall issue with the building next door. And now this eyesore has taken the place of a historic building…

The only reminder The Dennison Hotel beside the hole in the ground is this sticker on what remains of the red brick facade…

Across the parking lot, it looks like the new apartment building that was being built across the street from our old apartment is finally reaching completion. And it has a fancy name, Encore.

Seeking of facades, it looks like they’re doing some pretty extensive work on the facade of this building on Main Street judging by the scaffolding…

Right next door, Bay Horse Cafe is open for business…

There’s a Wahlburger’s coming to Sixth Street where Pi Pizzeria used to be…

That will bring the downtown burger joint count to five with Americano, Bobby’s Burger Palace, Bru, Burger-fi and now Walburgers. Also on Sixth Street is all this mess…

The old Trattoria Roma is becoming an Irish pub & restaurant, O’Reilly’s…

And there’s also a new pizza place on Sixth Street called Zablong…

There’s this mess on Eighth Street…

And finally, Deskey has a new front window display…

The more things change, the things stay the same. There’s always something new popping up or being constructed in downtown Cincinnati. 😀❤️
