Cincinnati's Northside neighborhood rests in the amphitheater
created by the Mill Creek and West Fork Creek. Settled in 1790,
incorporated in 1865, and annexed in 1873, it was Cincinnati's
first commuter suburb. Its colorful history from Native American
days to the present is evidenced by its many names-Ludlow Station,
Helltown, Happy Valley, Tanyard, and Cumminsville. The abolitionist
sentiment made it a hotbed for Underground Railroad activity. A
large German presence birthed its many beer gardens and saloons.
Wealthy estate owners of Clifton and Avondale came to Frogtown to
buy perennials for formal gardens. The fashion-conscious came to
seek the large number of merchant tailors and milliners for their
high-quality and contemporary styles. Beer drinkers sought
Bruckman's Beer, fermented on the canal. The famous Crosley
brothers started their empire in Northside. This Cincinnati
neighborhood still sparkles today with the diversity and creativity
of its past. Step back in time to see the stories that still make
Cincinnati's Northside neighborhood such a vibrant and exciting
community.
