The Embarrasment of Cincinnati Politics

The Cincinnati Banks Project is a joke. This project has been on the books since 1999. It is now 2007 and there is no progress. In the meantime, our neighbors over the river are making a mockery of Cincinnati and raking it in at the same time. Kudos to Northern Kentucky for not just talking about development, but actually DOING something about it. Here is just a sampling of what they have accomplished in a relatively short amount of time. No wonder why people don't want to go to downtown Cincinnati - there's nothing to go to. In the meantime, lots of people are flocking to Northern Kentucky for places like Newport on the Levee, Newport Aquarium, tons of new restaurants, and the soon-to-be Ascent. What does Cincinnati have? A parking lot. Yippee.

You go to downtown more than you do to NKY. Because you're always at Mary's.

Yes, I'm ALWAYS at Mary's. I don't go anywhere else. And you know that because you're always there too.
