Just five miles Northwest of Downtown Cincinnati, Northside is a hotbed of creativity, and a popular destination for entertainment, nightlife, and shopping, with dozens of independently owned businesses along a two-mile stretch of US-127/Hamilton Avenue and its cross streets.

The Northside Business District is situated along Hamilton and Spring Grove Avenues, and the Hoffner Historic District, boasting distinctive Italianate architecture that reflects the city’s German roots. The walkability and social connections of Northside’s business district is a big part of why people choose to visit or make their home here. Northside’s population has remained overwhelmingly diverse over much of the past several decades—despite a rapid increase in redevelopment, and a surge of popularity. In the neighborhood parks, pubs, restaurants, and shops, you’ll find local business owners, artists and musicians, young families and older residents who have raised their children here, arts administrators, young professionals, college students and educators, as well as skilled-laborers and technicians—often with the shared vested interest in maintaining the community spirit that makes Northside so special.

Northside has a long history of activism, harnessing its independent spirit for the benefit community causes and beloved residents. This is best reflected in Northside’s tandem events, the annual Northside 4th of July Parade and Rock n Roll Carnival, both showcasing some of the city’s biggest and brightest personalities and eccentricities.

Come see for yourself why Northside’s fun and eclectic mix of businesses and community spaces are preferred meeting places that often serve as de facto cultural salons for residents and visitors.
