On Monday, August 4, Over-the-Rhine Community Housing (OTRCH), Eber Development, Schickel Design, and 3CDC held a media event at the site of the new City Home project along the 1400 block of Pleasant Street in Over-the-Rhine.
Crews were busy preparing footers for new townhomes on the site of demolished buildings at 1406-1410 Pleasant Street, while other contractors were busy working within the buildings that will be rehabilitated into new single-family and condominium units.
When I arrived, only a cameraman from FOX 19 was on hand, but I did notice Rich Jaffe from Local 12 and a crew from News 5 as I was leaving.
Some of the people pictured in these shots are: Kelly Leon of 3CDC (green/yellow top and flowered skirt/shorts), Karen Blatt of Eber Development (green top and black pants), Sarah Allan of OTRCH (pink top and skirt), Martha Dorff of Schickel Design (black suit).

What a dopey, empty name for a development in OTR. I hope it looks better than it sounds. City Home...City Ice or is that Home City Ice? ...City Link.
Couldn't Pleasant Street or something related be used in the name? It is psychologically positive and more inspiring. The best solution is usually right in front of you.
City Home...is that an old folks home? Is it a home for the city's homeless??? City Home, how creative!
^ Let's hear your top three suggestions!
