    Why not sell naming rights to the highest bidder and try to recover some of those taxpayer dollars you've been sinking into it.

    Instead of "The Banks" perhaps you could call it "The Cincinnati COAST"...yeah, that has a nice ring to it.

    Ok -- that's funny, COAST. Actually, it does have a nice ring to it.

    Even better, let's combine your and Mark's ideas--you guys could take all that money you raised at your recent fundraiser and buy the naming rights.

    What does COAST think about Greg Hartmann having two assistants? Isn't that something they were whining about Mr. Portune and yourself?

    Palookaville ?
    Renaming it now would probably just cause confusion. It might very well have found it's own name in 50 years. I wouldn't worry about it.

    I actually like "The Bottoms," but David, what do you personally think it should be named?

    Will you tell us?

    Of those choices, I think I prefer Riverfront District, as in "Cincinnati's Riverfront District."

    Thanks a lot. :)

    So far, at least there are 660 people with equally horrible taste (2d place after "the Banks")

    I voted for "Parkside," only because "Riverfront" without the word "District" was not an option.

    In other words, of the four presented, I'd go with just "Riverfront."
