Grass-roots groups helped the city of Cincinnati persuade ODOT to change the design of the $3.6B Brent Spence Bridge project to reclaim 10 acres of interstate for development, extending downtown westward.
Now the city is planning for how to use it.

Fantastic community engagement session for the Revive 75 project. Planning for future of Queensgate, Camp Washington & around eastern side of Mill Creek. This work plus our Experience Mill Creek & $ for Downtown Plan = exciting future for our urban core w/housing & amenities.

A lot has changed in Cincinnati since 2011, and in Queensgate that change has meant vacant buildings, empty lots and stagnation. It's time to remove the constraints of 1960s thinking and allow a new direction for this area so close to downtown.

Three-tier mission for what some know as the Signature Street Concept. Cincinnati City Council will consider a plan leading up to Brent Spence Bridge Project:
1. Reclaim lost land from I-75
2. Reconnect Queensgate-Downtown-West End
3. Realize investment in forgotten areas

Questions I’m probably too chicken to ask @AftabPureval if there is a Q&A after his presentation with Peter Calthorpe @CalAnalytics Thursday morning at #CNU24:
1) When are you planning to make Bridge Forward’s Fort Washington Way II plan part of your policy?
2) Skincare routine?

Undoing this is hard. But groups like @BridgeForwardC are trying to do it.
Relate the connections, update the zoning and watch what can happen.

What’s that thing Butch Cassidy’s says? “Boy, I got vision, and the rest of the world wears bifocals.”
Ideas like @Chaswied thought process and vision show cincinnatians visualize something more than an area dominated by cars, they want an area for people, one that is welcoming and not a barrier. As a city cincinnati needs to speak up as one voice and demand a rightsized corridor.

One thing is certain: ODOT will not deliver a better project unless #Cinci Council asks ODOT to do so. @GovMikeDeWine has even confirmed: we won't get what we don't ask for.
The later half of this GIF represents what a better project could look like.
Let's do it!

I’ve been sitting on this sketch for a long time following the latest updates from ODOT for the unnecessary Brent Spence Bridge approach. At tomorrow’s open house I plan to suggest that this project minimize its footprint and maximize its reintroduction of the street grid.

Completely agree with the former Mayors, this a one in a lifetime opportunity to reconnect the West End to downtown. The BSB project can and should be better for the city. – at Queens, NY
