West End is a historic neighborhood about 1.5 miles northwest of Downtown Cincinnati. Once a manufacturing hub for beer, clothing, soap, and other goods, West End is an up-and-coming neighborhood undergoing revitalization. Several new developments are entering the neighborhood including a football stadium set to open in 2021. Along with housing several museums, West End rests next to one of the city’s most popular museums, the Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal.
Combined with its charming historic buildings, West End is known for its strong sense of community. Community gardens and programs at the West End’s several recreation centers are just two ways locals connect. West End has rentals options for every budget in a variety of styles including apartments in renovated brick buildings. Proximity to downtown allows residents to have easy access to Cincinnati’s biggest attractions like the Duke Energy Convention Center and Paul Brown Stadium, home of Cincinnati Bengals.
