Cincinnati

Downtown Cincinnati
Downtown Cincinnati
Cincinnati is a town with beauty and brains. Nestled into a scenic river valley, the city that Wadsworth referred to as the "Queen of the West" has been known to inspire poetry. But Cincy's beauty is more than skin deep. Boasting the University of Cincinnati and more than 100 museums and galleries, most notably the Cincinnati Art Museum, the Taft Museum of Art, and the Contemporary Arts Center, Cincinnati is attracting art lovers of all stripes. Possessing one of the most dynamic music scenes in the Midwest, the town also is ground zero for rockers. While many foodies arrive solely with thoughts of a delicious three-way, they leave with memories of gourmet fare. In the "Just for Fun" department, there are pro sports teams, The Cincinnati Zoo and the always-amusing Paramount's Kings Island.

Bringing their talents to Ohio: entrepreneurs flock to the Buckeye State

In growing numbers, fresh-faced entrepreneurs are passing over the coasts and points in between and choosing Ohio to plant and nurture their startups. The state's dazzling array of come-hither accelerators, incubators and advocates make the choice a natural.

Q & A with Jason Langdon, Cincinnati Mini-Maker Faire

Louisville had a fire-breathing pony. New York had 3-D printers and makerbots galore. Cincinnati Maker Faire Founder Jason Langdon looks forward to seeing what the local science, DIY and art community has to offer in the city's first all-ages, all-genres celebration of maker culture this October in Washington Park.

Brain gain: Keeping fresh talent on home turf

From entrepreneurship competitions that offer prizes to top startups at Ohio colleges to an array of enticing resources that connect young talent to jobs, the Buckeye State is plugging up brain drain and turning it into brain gain.

Reshoring helps drive rise in Ohio manufacturing

After ten straight years of decline, Ohio manufacturing employment increased for the second straight year in 2012. Part of the reason is the emerging trend to bring production back to the U.S. from overseas facilities.

Roll (tax) credits: A second look at Ohio's film tax credits

Back in 2011, our sister publication Fresh Water Cleveland ran a feature about Ohio's newly instituted Film Production Tax Credit, which helped attract big-budget productions like "The Avengers" and "Alex Cross," plus smaller films like "Take Shelter" and "Fun Size." Fresh Water decided to revisit the topic to see how it's working out for Cleveland, and Ohio.
