Colorized image from 1906
Original title: Mount Adams Incline
Photographer: Detroit Publishing
Location: 64 Lock street (no longer there), Aligns with 367 Kilgour St, Cincinnati, OH

In Cincinnati Ohio, there were once 5 different inclines. Most were build in the late 1800's and ended in the 1920's or so.

This is the Mount Adams incline, built in 1872, and demolished in 1948, it was used for over 75 years! The incline saved a lot of time, as it would often take 45 minutes or more to go up the hilly streets, this only took a minute.

But it wasn't free, and it wasn't cheap, from my understanding it cost around $2-$4 (our prices), each way, and that didn't include the streetcar fair. Streetcars, people and wagons could use this service, and later in the 1940's, cars used it.

Despite running for 75 years, they weren't that popular, it was more of an attraction than anything else. They took people out of polluted air and put them where it was slightly...

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
