Westwood

Henke Winery

Cincinnati's largest neighborhood, Westwood houses over 30,000 residents in a six-mile area just directly West of downtown. With tree lined streets and architecturally appealing homes, many parts of the neighborhood offer beautiful walking views. Westwood maintains its historic buildings such as the Westwood Town Hall, the Firehouse, Westwood Elementary, and Westwood Library. Even though the neighborhood savors its historical beginnings, renovations, new businesses, and diverse young residents continue to be drawn to the west side.
