Cincinnati alley photograph   Save
Ohio Guide Photographs
Description: The Federal Writers' photographers served to document the condition of old, dense city neighborhoods, in preparation for the creation of urban renewal plans. The plans of the 1930s found fruition in the post-war period; the 1948 master plan for Cincinnati called for the demolition of all "slums" or "deteriorated" areas, and promoted new growth outside the city. Reverse reads: "An unnamed alley, east of Pendleton Street, Cincinnati, Ohio. Photo by Federal Writers' Photographer, District #12. June 9, 1937." View on Ohio Memory.
