City Planning and Engagement

Mt. Washington is one of 52 neighborhoods within Cincinnati and borders California, the East End, and Anderson Township. It is well known for the Mt. Washington Water Tower and as the birthplace of Gold Star Chili. 

The community of Mt. Washington and the Department of City Planning and Engagement are going to be working together to complete a new neighborhood plan with an anticipated kick-off to the planning process in the Fall of 2025.

The planning process is just kicking off but if you know of anyone who is interested in learning about the neighborhood process, having a conversation about the future of the neighborhood, or serving on the Steering Committee, please fill out the form here: Mt. Washington Plan Involvement Form.

Enter your email below to stay informed of future public meetings and events! Feel free to print and share the flyer.
