Each time my husband and I drive over the railroad track that runs along Wasson Avenue in Hyde Park and Oakley, we talk about how awesome it would be if that unused railroad track was a walking path. After all, it runs for 6 miles from Victory Parkway to Mariemont by way of Hyde Park and Mt.Lookout (through Ault Park). There is even a 2 mile long perfectly straight stretch running through Hyde Park and Rookwood Pavilion. There is a fan page on Facebook, although we’re not sure who the organizers are. Looks like they will be attending this weeks Hyde Park Council meeting, and hopefully some... [more...]

A controversy has been brewing for some time regarding homes that sit in what’s historically been known as “East Hyde Park.” The MLS listing service has reclassified these homes as being in Oakley. The area of dispute includes homes along Erie Avenue between Tarpis and Pinehurst avenues, the Erie and Saybrook avenues intersection and the Deupree House, 3939 Erie Ave. Residents affected by this are upset and worried about property values and resale — specifically that buying a home in “Hyde Park” and selling in “Oakley” could lose them money. These... [more...]
