The Cincinnati Subway is a set of incomplete, derelict tunnels and stations for a rapid transit system beneath the streets of Cincinnati, Ohio. It is recognized as the largest abandoned subway tunnel in the United States. It was built in the early twentieth century as an upgrade to the Cincinnati streetcar system, but was abandoned due to escalating costs, the collapse of funding amidst political bickering, and the Great Depression during the 1920s and 1930s.
Six stations were created along Central Parkway: underground were Race Street, Liberty Street, and Brighton Place; above ground were Marshall Street, Ludlow Avenue, and Clifton Avenue. Tunnels were also constructed in Norwood. As the subway expanded further out from downtown, the city began to experience economic hardships. In 1928, the construction of the subway system in Cincinnati was indefinitely canceled. To date, there are no concrete plans to revive the project.
Cincinnati’s Abandoned Subway is a legend of innovation, politics, and failure. More importantly, the unfinished rapid transit system is a valuable lesson of how present decisions impact the lifestyles of the future generations.
