Cornhole at 5th and Walnut, downtown

This PARK[ing] spot lasted maybe an hour during rush hour yesterday morning, before it had to be packed up. Just a hop and a skip south of Fountain Square, this was definitely the most audacious location. Thank you, John and Alicia, for putting on the show!

Lemonade/Advice Stand in Front of Park+Vine, Over-the-Rhine

Dan and some volunteers set up a charming stand offering free lemonade and advice across the street from Park+Vine, on Vine St. in Over-the-Rhine. Thanks, guys!

Green Space in Front of City Roots, Over-the-Rhine

Lisa of City Roots, an urban garden store, set up a lovely little green space in front of her shop on Vine St. in Over-the-Rhine, for Cincinnati Park[ing] Day 2008. Thanks, Lisa!

Outdoor Patio in Front of Coffee Emporium, Over-the-Rhine

Coffee Emporium on Central Parkway in Over-the-Rhine celebrated Cincinnati Park[ing] Day by extending its outdoor seating area into the parking space in front of its coffee shop. It was clearly much appreciated!
