Over-the-Rhine, known as “OTR” for short, is believed to be the largest, most intact urban historic district in the United States. Largely settled by German immigrants in the 19th century, our neighborhood is home to some of the most beautiful buildings in the city. OTR is filled with people from all walks of life; from individuals who are experiencing homelessness to the upwardly mobile, our corner of the city continues to be a center of culture and diversity. OTR is home to many of Cincinnati's storied performance spaces, pioneering social services, eclectic restaurants, magnet schools, and art galleries.
