Give Back Cincinnati sessions to focus on streetcars

The first Give Back Cincinnati Sounding Sessions of the year will be held February 2 and 3 in Music Hall's Cincinnati Opera Garrett Board Room from 6 PM to 8 PM.

Participants will have the chance to hear a brief presentation on the streetcar proposal, which consists of a Downtown-Over-the-Rhine circulator loop with a connection to Uptown.

Attendees will also be able to pose questions to City leaders and streetcar supporters.

Cincinnati city manager Milton Dohoney Jr. will speak at the Monday session.

A speaker for the Tuesday session has not been named.

Registration for either Sounding Session can be made on the Give Back Cincinnati website.

Man, do you think this streetcar thing will ever happen? City council has been playing around with the idea for so long (unfinished subway in the 1920's? WTF?) that it really seems like it might be a pipe dream.

BTW, I just noticed you added me to your blogroll. Thank you very much. I have returned the favor.

I do think it will happen, though it's no slam dunk.

Thanks for adding me to your blogroll!
