Cover Story

Mt. Adams is ALIVE!

S

tart with the venerable streets and houses, both narrow, both picturesque. Accept that some of the architecture is quite marvelous and some pretty ordinary, but that together they create a fabric and scale that works.

It’s the architecture of the whole, not any single building that 1s Mt. Adams architectural charm. Then add the views - from the bend in Carney Street, from the Hil Street overlook, from the Ida Street Bridge, from a house or condominium that you know.

Remember how the seasons can change Mt. Adams: how it looks in the spring, when flower-ang trees bloom on St. Gregory, or in the fall, when red and orange leaves encircle the Cloisters.

Think what fog, or snow, does to the hilltop. Now you have a framework.

Then drill down: the piazza at Pavilion and St. Gregory, with its flowers and cheerful bronze monk fountain; the profusion of plantings both public, courtesy of the Mt. Adams Garden Club and private owners; the tiny houses on the steep hill below Fort View Place, accessible only by stairs that run down to Martin Drive; the Immaculata and the bells at 1111 St. Gregory Street sounding on the quarter hour; the Pilgrim Chapel, with its yellow stained glass and annual spaghetti dinner.

The charm of Mt. Adams is the combination of all that it is - and has been and can be, in the eyes of those who adore it. Fort View Place and Jerome Street are still brick (not concrete because their xesidents fought with the City to keep them that way. On St. Gregory, the

sidewalks are lorick, and tree lined and the utilities are buried because our company believed in it so strongly that we helped pay for it.

Over the years, we have worked on our Mt. Adams projects with many talented architects who had or still have studios in the neighborhood. Our first in 1964 was the very creative Tom Hefley, who zehabbed his own home on Ida Street in the early sixties. Then came others equally gifted: Otto Bauer-Neilsen, Jim Fearing, Greg Tilsley, Carl Strauss and John Senhauser.

John, Whose studio is on St. Gregory Street and home is on Hill Street, has designed or redesigned a number of Mt. Adams’ houses and is supremely sensitive to the scale and texture.

Mount Adams is alive with so many wonderful spots to visit…

UPPER EDEN: Your haven in Mt Adams where Stones, Glass, and Art come together in a harmonious celebration of creativity.

Upper Eden boutique promises a truly unique shopping experience, unrivaled in Mt Adams. Art. Jewelry. Accessories…and more.

Gallery JENSEITS: Mt. Adams’ contemporary art destination, presenting rotating exhibitions from local and international artists. Thought-provoking, welcoming, and open to col-

lectors and curious visitors alike.”

LUCA BISTRO: Brings the warm, sunlit flavors of the South of France to Cincinnati’s historic Mount Adams neighborhood in a warm setting with both indoor seating and outdoor patio seating.

STUDIO K: Is a luxury hair salon focused on providing high-end hair services by a team of professional stylists. Located in the Mt Adams business district on Saint Gregory Street, YOUR MOM’S PIZZERIA: A locally owned neighborhood spot serving New York-style pizza made with house-made dough, creative favorites, and plenty of personality.

THE BLIND LEMON: Is a historic underground tavern and Cincinnati institution operating for over 60 years in the Mt. Adams neighborhood…hotspot for cozy evenings and live music.

MT. ADAMS BAR & GRILL: Built in 1875 and has had many lives through the years. This one began in 1987 when Eddie Sheppard bought it after creating the Blind Lemon next door. He set his sights on recreating a tavern of years gone by

filled with antiques, stained glass and memorabilia that captivate customers while they enjoy cocktails and great comfort food.

BOW TIE CAFE: Proud to be the only café in the city pouring Intelligentsia coffee daily. Beyond exceptional coffee, serving fresh food, curated wine, and handcrafted cocktails.

Enjoy it all on the beautiful three-tiered piazza. Whether you’re a Mount Adams local or visiting for the first time, consider this your must-stop café.

AL LUPO RISTORANTE: Located within the Rookwood Pottery complex. Where clay once met the wheel, flour now meets water. Pasta is rolled by hand. Sauces simmer slowly.

Bottles are chosen with care.

Hospitality is practiced the same way—thoughtfully, generously, and without rush…. good food, like good art, comes from patience, attention, and respect for tradition.

Come to Mt.Adams.

Minutes from Downtown….overlooking the city.
