Driving Downtown - Cincinnati Ohio USA
Short on time? Watch at high speed :)
Cincinnati is a city in and the county seat of Hamilton County, Ohio, United States.[7] The third largest city in Ohio and the 65th largest city in the United States, it had a population of 296,945 at the 2010 census. According to the census,[8] the population of the metropolitan area was 2,214,954 - the 28th largest Metropolitan Statistical Area (MSA) in the United States and the largest centered in Ohio.[9] Settled in 1788, the city is located on the border between Ohio and Kentucky at the confluence of the Ohio River and the Licking River. Residents of Cincinnati are called Cincinnatians.[10]
In the early 19th century, Cincinnati was an American boomtown in the heart of the country to rival the larger coastal cities in size and wealth, at one point being the 6th largest city in the United States by population, surpassed only by the older, established settlements of the Eastern Seaboard and New Orleans.[11] Because it is the first major American city founded after the American Revolution as well as the first major inland city in the country, Cincinnati is sometimes thought of as the first purely American city.[12] It developed with less European immigration or influence than eastern cities in the same period; however, it received a significant number of German immigrants, who founded many of the city's cultural institutions. By the end of the 19th century, with the shift from steamboats to railroads, Cincinnati's growth had slowed considerably and the city became surpassed in population by other inland cities, Chicago and St. Louis.
Cincinnati is home to two major sports teams, the Cincinnati Reds, one of the oldest franchises in Major League Baseball, and the Cincinnati Bengals of the National Football League. The University of Cincinnati, founded in 1819, is one of the 50 largest in the United States.[13] Cincinnati is known for its historic architecture. In the late 1800s, Cincinnati was commonly referred to as Paris of America, mainly due to significant architectural projects, like Music Hall, the Cincinnatian Hotel, and the Shillito Department Store.[14]
Cityscape[edit]
Downtown Cincinnati is focused around Fountain Square, a public square and event location.
Cincinnati is home to numerous structures that are noteworthy due to their architectural characteristics or historic associations including the Carew Tower, the Scripps Center, the Ingalls Building, Cincinnati Museum Center at Union Terminal, and the Isaac M. Wise Temple.[29]
The city is undergoing significant changes due to new development and private investment, as well as the construction of the long-stalled Banks project, which will include apartments, retail, restaurants, and offices and will stretch from Great American Ball Park to Paul Brown Stadium. Phase 1A is already complete and 100% occupied as of early 2013. Smale Riverfront Park is a development working alongside with The Banks and is Cincinnati's newest park. Nearly $3.5 billion has been invested in the urban core of Cincinnati (including Northern Kentucky). Much has been done by 3CDC.
Queen City Square opened on January 11, 2011, at 1:11 p.m. EST. The building is the tallest in Cincinnati (surpassing the Carew Tower), and is the third tallest in Ohio, reaching a height of 665 feet.[30] In 2013 the Horseshoe Casino Cincinnati opened, the first casino in the city and fourth in the state of Ohio.
Economy
Many major corporations have their head offices in Cincinnati such as Procter & Gamble, The Kroger Company, and Macy's, Inc., among many others.
The largest employer in Cincinnati, Kroger, has 17,000 employees. The University of Cincinnati is the second largest, with 15,162 employees.[48]
Events[edit]
Cincinnati hosts a number of large annual events. Oktoberfest Zinzinnati, Bockfest, and the Taste of Cincinnati feature local restauranteurs. Music-related events include the Cincinnati May Festival, MidPoint Music Festival, and Cincinnati Bell/WEBN Riverfest. There is an annual marathon, the Flying Pig Marathon. Tall Stacks, held every three or four years, celebrates the city's riverboat heritage.

Garnet - A Montana Ghost Town in HD - near Missoula, Montana MT
High in the mountains of western Montana you will find a REAL ghost town, Garnet, one of Montana’s best preserved and least visited. Garnet was started in 1895 when gold was discovered.
The town thrived with over 1,200 miners and their families. Garnet had four hotels, four stores, two barbershops, a butcher shop, a doctor’s office, laundry facilities and thirteen saloons. It even had stagecoach service!
After a few years the gold ran out and so did the population. It dwindled down to 150 people by 1905. In 1912 a fire wiped out half of the commercial buildings and was never rebuilt.
What you see today are efforts of stabilization, preservation and restoration from many volunteers who are dedicated to help preserve Montana’s rich mining history. Congratulations to each and every one of you!

Oregon
This state has dramatic landscapes including the deepest lake in the U.S., is the only state with an official nut, and is NOT the rainiest, wettest place in America. Learn more from this video in which Nathan Cooper, Assistant Public Affairs Officer at the U.S. Mission to International Organizations in Vienna, introduces his home state: Oregon. #50states #OR
Transcript:
Hello! My name is Nathan Cooper, I work at the U.S. Mission to International Organizations in Vienna, and I come from the beautiful state of Oregon. It's a state with majestic natural resources and a fiercely independent character.
Before I talk a bit more extensively about the state's history and culture, let me quickly dispel three common misconceptions about my home state: First, many people often guess Oregon is somewhere in the middle of the country. Actually, Oregon is on the West Coast of the United States, just above California.
Second, although you may have heard it called Or-ee-GONE, locals pronounce it ORE-gun.
And last, contrary to what weather maps often depict, Oregon is not the wettest, rainiest place in America (that's actually in Hawaii).
Oregon is perhaps most famous for its dramatic and diverse landscape. Its rugged coastline contains sprawling beaches and a fascinating array of marine life, including noisy sea lions and vibrant tide pools.
The Western half of the state is dominated by the volcanic Cascade mountain range. There you'll find famous peaks like Mt. Hood, dense evergreen forests and rushing rivers. The western Willamette Valley is also home to the state's two largescities, Portland and Eugene, as well as a world-class winemaking region. And a vashigh-elevation desert covers the eastern half of the state.
Southern Oregon's Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the US. It was formed by a collapsed volcano in the Cascades. These kinds of natural resources have attracted explorers and adventurers to Oregon since its earliest days.
Archeologists have found evidence of human settlements in what is now know as Oregon dating back at least 15,000 years. Large numbers of Native American groups, including the Umpqua, Molalla, Klamath, and Chinook called area home in the 1500s when Spanish explorers first encountered the Oregon coast in 1543.
Centuries later, President Thomas Jefferson commissioned explorers Lewis and Clark to cross the continent in search of a commercial route for trade with Asia. In 1806 they reached what is now known as Oregon. Lewis and Clark's successful continental crossing lead to Oregon joining the Union in 1859. They're still considered Oregon's forefathers.
OK, that's probably enough of a history lesson. Now for a bit of trivia: In no particular order, here are a few other things you might find surprising about Oregon: It's the only state with an official nut—the hazelnut, which is also sometimes called a filbert. It's the home of Nike. The global capital of wind surfing is Hood River, Oregon, on the banks of the Columba River. Oregon has more ghost towns than anywhere else in the former Wild West. Oregon also has some strangely-named communities. My favorites include the towns of Weed, Drain, Nimrod, and Boring. Oregon is physically the 7th largest American state, but ranks only 29 in terms of population.
Politically, Oregon is both extremely independent and strongly polarized. Oregonians
pioneered direct legislation by the state's citizens through ballot initiatives and referenda,
a system now used throughout the nation. This democratic device allowed Oregonians
to go against the national grain with policies like banning self-pumping at gas stations
and doing away with sales taxes. Oregon's independent streak comes through clearly in
the state's motto: She flies with her own wings.
Consensus among citizens in Oregon is hard to come by, as recent studies have shown
Oregonians to represent some of the most extremely liberal and conservative voters in
the nation.
Although Oregonians are generally a pretty low-key bunch, more than a few famous
people have come from state, including President Herbert Hoover; the actors Sally
Struthers, Kim Novak, and Ginger Rogers; the track star Steve Prefontaine; and the
writers Ken Kesey and Raymond Carver.
To find out more about the state, including information about its economic base, please
visit Oregon.gov. I hope you've enjoyed this quick introduction to the Beaver State, and
hope you'll have the chance to visit it one day.
