In the square, the Tyler Davidson Fountain oversees shoppers and lunch breakers as they watch performances on the pavilion stage. The Skywalk, a walkway atop the streets of downtown, interconnects department stores, hotels, and more than 80 shops, banks, restaurants, office buildings, and the Convention Center. You can go to Cinergy Field or the Firstar Center by Skywalk. At the end of the day, return to the Square and take a ride in a horse-drawn carriage as dusk falls and the city turns on its lights. Or visit the new Newport Acquarium, a short walk or drive across the Taylor-Southgate Bridge in Newport, Kentucky.
Shopping is just a short drive from the Mount.
And you can enjoy a special meal or just get a quick bite to eat at a nearby restaurant. In fact, Mount students participate in the Mount's Cooperative Education program with local businesses and graduates stay in Cincinnati after graduation because of career opportunities. You can enjoy special events and attractions such as Oktoberfest, Taste of Cincinnati and A Day in Eden. Riverfest is the biggest party of the year. Hundreds of fireworks bloom in the sky as the people of Cincinnati say farewell to summer.
