Named after two colleges which were established here, College Hill still reflects the elegance and aristocracy that influenced this community during the 19th century. In fact, many of the streets are still gas-lit. This urban village offers many styles of homes from old to new.
This historical neighborhood sits high on a ridge, with rolling wooded terrain. In some areas, the elegant old homes, surrounded by ancient trees, give the familiar Cincinnati impression of great strength and variety. Other sections have smaller homes, as well as many pleasant apartments. Several new developments offer attractive ranch designs as well as brick homes. With new trees, improved street lighting, recreational facilities and attractive neighborhood shopping, College Hill offers many opportunities to share in its historical past, and its future. CitiRama was hosted in twice in College Hill: Witherby Meadows and Gershom Grove, so whether you prefer an older home or something newer, College Hill has you covered.
