A letter to our readers,
Tomorrow 8/29 is a big day for BuyCincy as we turn One year old. Spurred on a year ago by the development happening in the Gateway Quarter, Sean decided to create BuyCincy as a way to bring light to these new businesses and other locally owned businesses throughout the city. A few days later I joined him, and together we have spent the past year trying to do our best to bring you information about locally owned and operated businesses. Today we are fortunate to have an all volunteer staff of five additional Contributing Writers, and a Sales and Marketing Coordinator. Over the past year we have seen steady growth in readership, have won two Best of Cincinnati Awards, and have received lots of positive press, none of which would have happened without You, our faithful readers. For the past 12 months you have supported us and spread the word about our little venture, and for that we thank you.
We would also like to thank the businesses that have supported us and that have allowed us to support them. We hope that we have been a help to you over the past year, and we hope to be of even greater help in the future.
This next year promises to be a big one for BuyCincy as we continue to grow. Stay tuned for exciting changes, events and a greater focus on what got us here, supporting locally owned businesses and the people who make this city a wonderful place to live.
Thank you again for your support, and we look forward to serving you for many years to come. Now get out there and shop, eat and participate! Take advantage of all that this great city has to offer.
All the Best to You,
Kurt and Sean

“Five People You Need To Know” You know it! We do get to cheat a little bit, though – both Kurt and I appear in the article, bumping the total number of people to six.

Mecklenburg Gardens has been one of Cincinnati’s finest institutions since its inception in 1865. Patrons, menus, and neighborhoods have changed, but this spot in Corryville* remains a delightful look into Cincinnati’s past. The floor in front of the bar dips noticeably to reveal nearly 160 years of wear, and the wall is covered in photos of former patrons who seem to be saying “drink up!”

If it seems like its been a long time since we talked about Javier’s extending their hours for dinner and getting a liquor license, that’s because it has. Think January. Before Taste of Cincinnati, before Opening Day, and even before the Great Blizzard of 08.
