CUF Parking Study

April 27, 2020 By matt_chcurc

Area stakeholders have been working together for 9 months to attempt to solve the parking issues that we have.  Community meetings have been held and recommendations developed.  As we prepare to enact some of those recommendations, we are asking individuals who live, learn, or work in the area to complete the Parking Survey so we can be as informed as possible.  Anyone who fills out a survey will automatically be entered into a drawing for 1 of 10 $25 gift cards to a Clifton Heights business of their choice (make sure to fill out the contact information in order to be eligible).

For more information, please visit our CUF Parking Study page which includes the project background and results of the study.

Last week, 17 benches were installed throughout Clifton Heights!  These benches will serve our most highly utilized bus stops in CUF with over 3,000 people getting on and off daily in our community.  This program was funded in cooperation with the City of Cincinnati, CUF Neighborhood Association, Clifton Heights Business Association, and Clifton Heights Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation.

Old Saint George

September 28, 2016 By admin_clifton_heights

osg-steeple-lightingMore than a decade after closing its doors to the public and almost a quarter century since it ceased being a church, Old St George will once again be holding services on August 21st.  The Samuel Hannaford designed church’s future was not always certain as it nearly faced the wrecking ball in 2005 and then in 2008 suffered a terrible fire that burned both its iconic steeples and very easily could have destroyed the entire building.
Starting with the purchase of the building to save it from imminent demolition in 2005, the Clifton Heights Community Urban Redevelopment Corporation has been the steward of the building.  In that time, development partners were engaged to try and figure out an appropriate adaptive reuse of the historic church.  Energy and resources were put forward to explore everything from office space and a hotel to apartments and an REI.  No stone was left unturned.

In 2014, CHCURC began discussions with Crossroads about the possibility of their opening a branch church in the University / Uptown area.  The idea seemed far fetched as urban church congregations aren’t exactly a growth market.  That said, Crossroads proved to be the exception to that rule and they saw opportunity and a new life for the once and still proud building.  In Spring of 2015, Crossroads purchased the building and proceeded to invest over $10 million to realize their vision.
On the eve of their first service, the iconic steeples have returned and the stained glass glows brightly.  The building will be open to the public on a daily basis to enjoy as study and meeting space starting August 22nd.  osg-stained-glass
