A city’s true heart beats far above its crowded streets—in the quiet corridors of Carew Tower, beneath the lights of Heritage Bank Center, and within the walls of the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, secrets wait. Some bold, some nearly forgotten.

Set out on a self-guided audio tour that unlocks old stories and unexpected corners of Downtown, uncovering what casual tourists rush past every day. Here, history refuses to sleep.

Who sparked a scandal that nearly toppled Cincinnati’s powers inside these high-rise halls? What clandestine codes are hidden in the stained glass of the cathedral? Why was a single night at the Heritage Bank Center remembered for chaos and legends?

Stride through political storms, silent rebellions, public heartbreak, and the hushed drama painted on every brick. Find yourself walking in the shadows of ambition and faith, seeing the city’s pulse from an entirely new angle.

Dare to follow the trail—Cincinnati’s untold stories are waiting.
