The purpose of the Uptown Parks and Neighborhood Revitalization Plan is to produce Master Plans for selected parks and their adjacent neighborhoods to address the needs and opportunities for improving, funding, and maintaining the parks through strategic redevelopment. The studied neighborhoods include Avondale, Clifton, Corryville, Clifton Heights-Fairview and Mt. Auburn. The objective of the Plan is to create a shared vision for preserving and promoting Uptown area parks as significant Cincinnati assets.
