Site Selection recently released its
Governor's Cup recipients, which is a list of cities, metropolitan areas and states that receive recognition for economic development. Cincinnati made the list in the category Top 10 Metro Areas: Tier One New and Expanded Facilities in 2016 (Metros with populations over 1 million).
In the past 5-10 years, Greater Cincinnati has seen a huge boom in economic development. Projects like the American Can Lofts in Northside, Rhinegeist and the Hellmann Creative Center in Covington took blighted and underutilized buildings and turned them into something completely different.
There are countless new developments, such as The Banks, that involved razing and clearing a site and starting from scratch. Both new and redevelopment projects have brought millions of dollars of investment to the area.
