Cincinnati Streetcar to Anchor Restaurant Row
The Brandt Retail Group has recently announced ambitious plans to transform Sixth Street between Walnut and Main into a lively district of sidewalk cafes and restaurants called “Restaurant Row.”
The Cincinnati Streetcar, running south on Walnut to the Riverfront and north on Main to the University of Cincinnati will help connect this development with the other attractions in our urban core. Someone could eat dinner at one of the new cafes and then take the streetcar to and from a performance at Music Hall.
With an estimated initial ridership of over one million riders per year, the streetcar will transport a large number of potential customers past these new establishments, helping to ensure a vibrant urban core. Support the revitalization of Cincinnati–Build the Streetcar.

Thank you for the great article, I think the street car is a great idea as long as they take of it and it doesn’t get run down like so many other things in Cincinnati
