Neyer Properties controls over 30 acres of land adjacent to the University of Cincinnati and Cincinnati Children Hospital campuses. The first phase of its redevelopment consists of $120 million on 3.3 acres along Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive between those campuses and Interstate 71. The program consists of 136,000 SF of lab space, a 140-key hotel, 20,000 SF of retail and approximately 230 units of housing. The first phase of development will anchor a linear greenway system that connects the developing neighborhoods of Avondale and Walnut Hills into the heart of the district. The project utilizes convertible parking designs that can be transitioned into public amenities for events and, eventually, permanently as the corridor densifies to become more transit and bike oriented. In addition to remaking the master plan and development strategy, Yard & Co. provided community/stakeholder engagement and Planned Development approval support for the development group.
