The Genius of Water at Fountain Square is once again the place to be in Cincinnati. Surrounded by a host of new restaurants and bars, the Square is alive with programming, including music during the summer and ice skating in the winter, and features the largest living room 'television' in the region sitting high atop Macy's. Around the Square, Downtown has experienced new life with residential developments, including condos and apartments in all price ranges, many of which boast scenic views of the hillsides and the river and offer unparalleled access to nightlife and recreation.
