Cincinnati City Council is considering an ordinance allowing them to lease a new Vine Street parking lot to the Central Vine Street Business Association (CVSBA), who would operate and maintain it.
The 18-space parking lot, which is currently under construction on the vacant Empire Theater site at in Over-the-Rhine, is expected to be completed in September.
As proposed, CVSBA would lease the lot for $1 per year for a period of three years, with a mutual option for two additional three-year terms.
The Crossroad Health Center already has committed to renting 9 of the spaces for employees of the center.
The "green" lot will utlilize a pourous paver system instead of traditional asphalt.

As much as I despise surface lots, I also understand the need for them...especially in this area.
Luckily for us, all of the Gateway Quarter parking lots are done very well. They look attractive, they're secure, well-lit, and most importantly don't have a negative impact on the neighborhood. I like the porous pavers idea for this lot.
