That’s not who we are as a city.

It was horrifying to watch.

We sold the railroad because we were facing a $400m deferred capital maintenance bill, and were very concerned that we didn’t have the money to maintain the infrastructure that we had, much less build new infrastructure.

You would expect that to be New York or Miami or San Francisco. Cincinnati regularly is in the top five, if not the number one city in the country, for percentage of rent increases.
