The Banks Development The City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County working with the lead developer
team of Carter & Associates and The Dawson Company will construct The Banks, a mixed use development that extend downtown Cincinnati to the riverfront between Paul Brown Stadium and Great American Ball Park. The Banks development creates a destination where people will want to live, work and play.
The City of Cincinnati and Hamilton County are jointly leveraging $180 million in public infrastructure investment into more than $600 million and bringing more than 3,000 residents to the area while creating a new office, retail and entertainment center along the Cincinnati riverfront.
Once completed, The Banks will be Cincinnati's largest single, mixed-use development and be comprised of a dynamic blend of residential, office and retail components. The total project will be a 2.8 million square foot development on 18 acres along Cincinnati's downtown riverfront.
85
The Banks Development Cont. The mixed-use development will include up to 1 million square feet of office,
approximately 300,000 square feet of retail and the balance in a variety of residential products. The plan capitalizes on the new urbanism trend by providing a place for people to move back to the urban core to be near work, entertainment and cultural amenities.
The groundbreaking for the project took place on April 2, 2008 with Phase 1-A to be completed in early 2010.
The development will include a 40-acre $80 million riverfront park. This "front door" of the development will include playgrounds, walking/biking paths, gardens, green space, fountains/water activities, venues for community events (festivals, concert, etc.). Groundbreaking for the park is scheduled for September of 2008.
