This genteel town just south of the Ohio River features a number of charming treasures including the lively MainStrasse district with its trendy bars, pubs and restaurants as well as beautiful homes stretched along the river beneath the strikingly modern architecture of its newest jewel, the Ascent.

Covington is experiencing a sleepy renaissance with new shops and condos opening along Madison and Pike Streets and a burgeoning Arts District that acts as the cultural glue that binds the city's charm to its proud denizens.
