The District at Clifton Heights is the site of the former Deaconess Hospital at Clifton Avenue and Straight Street, across from the University of Cincinnati. The first phase of the $640-million transformational development included The Deacon, a $120-million, eight-story student housing building. The 351-unit building was developed and constructed by Trinitas and opened in August 2019.
The $250-million second phase, opening in summer 2024, will include:
- Hub Cincinnati, a $143-million, 14-story student housing tower containing 380 units and 1,112 beds developed by Chicago-based Core Spaces.
- Hotel Celare, a $65-million, seven-story hotel developed by Columbus-based Crawford Hoying. This will feature a rooftop bar overlooking the campus entrance. The hotel will accommodate 171 rooms and have over 18,000 square feet of dining and entertainment space.
Trinitas, in partnership with Crawford Hoying, worked with The Port of Cincinnati and City of Cincinnati to provide a $40-million TIF package to fund public improvements, improved streetscapes, and a public parking garage. At full buildout, The District will be home to more than 3,000 residents, create over 2,000 jobs, and generate nearly $11 million in annual taxes for Cincinnati and Hamilton County.
“Our vision for The District at Clifton Heights took shape more than four years ago and was built on active input from community residents, elected officials, and key stakeholders,” said Aaron Bartels, Executive Vice President of Mixed-Use Development for Trinitas. “This next phase is an important evolution to The District as we continue to activate Straight Street with a great pedestrian-oriented experience. We’re thankful for our partnership with Crawford Hoying, Core Spaces, the Port, and City of Cincinnati to bring The District to this important milestone.”
