Good morning, everyone. Today, I’m excited to share with you some of the most interesting news stories from around Cincinnati and beyond. Let’s get started!
Firstly, have you noticed the beautiful murals that adorn the city’s buildings? As a local history guide, I can attest to their vibrant colors and creativity. But what truly sets them apart is their connection to our past. From canal boats to Kenner toys, they tell stories that invite us to learn more about our history. One of my favorite murals is the gigantic one across from the Duke Energy Convention Center. It showcases portraits of 10 of Cincinnati’s most influential musicians, including James Brown, Doris Day, and the Isley Brothers. Even though I have spent years researching the city’s history, there were some names on the mural that were unfamiliar to me. I had to do some research to identify them, but it was worth it.
