Our Downtown on the Move
Downtown Cincinnati is now home to over 4,200 residents, with more arriving every month as new condos and apartment homes are completed. The Downtown Residents Council works to develop a community atmosphere, conducts projects to improve the quality of life, and voices concerns of residents at City Hall.
We work closely with the Police Department on safety issues and Downtown Cincinnati Inc. and 3CDC on development and promotion efforts.
If you live Downtown or are interested in making Downtown THE premier neighborhood of the city, we encourage you to join us at our monthly meetings - 6 pm the second Tuesday in the Tower Room of the Public Library.

Downtown Recognized for Integration
With over 30 years of diversity, Downtown was recognized and named as a Gold Medal Community for beeing a stable integrated neighborhood at 'Hidden Treasures', a human resource summit, on Nov. 21, 2009. Corryville and Madisonville were the only other neighborhoods so recognized.
Pictured with the banner presented to the DRC are Elizabeth Brown of Housing Opportunities Made Equal, Conrad Thiede of the DRC, Al DeJarnett and Brandon Wier of the Cincinnatus Association. Cincinnatus worked with HOME to determine which communities in Hamilton County are most diverse and how that diversity lends to their strengths. Arrangements are being made for display of the banner at the Public Library.
