College Hill, Cincinnati

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

College Hill is a residential neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, first called Pleasant Hill due to its prime location. In 1866 the town was renamed due to its various colleges, most of which no longer are standing. The town was the birthplace of Samuel Fenton Cary, and also houses has several historic buildings (ie. College Hill Town Hall and the Old College Hill Post Office). While the two share a close proximity, this neighborhood is not to be confused with North College Hill, which is not part of Cincinnati.[1]
