Whittier School is looking the it’s best now that it’s almost a pile of rubble under a wonderful green space. Since I can remember that building has always looked more like communist era people-house than a welcoming educational institution.


Demolition at Kroger on Warsaw &
Enright started last week and I snapped a few photos with my phone. I’ll try to get a few more and post them together.

Section 8 at the Banks

Published at April 19, 2008 in 45204, 45205, Enquirer, Media, People, Price Hillians and The Press. 0 Comments

Big applause to Pete Witte for his comments in the April 27th Enquirer article: 

  ”They want low-income families penned up in low-income neighborhoods, and that’s not happening anymore,” he said from his engraving business on Glenway Avenue. “The Banks needs to take its fair share, just like Mount Lookout, just like Hyde Park, and just like my friends in Symmes Township - wherever that is.” 

 

Pete’s right, but it’s unfortunate there’s a lack of political support.  There’s no excuse for unequal distribution of CMHA housing throughout the county.  Of course the only way we will ever see equal Section 8 allocation throughout Hamilton County is when the system is put to rest and it’s 0 across the board.
