We are having a walk for White Cane Awareness Day, which is October 15. Details of the route are below. More details to come at our regular monthly meeting this Friday October 9.
White Cane walk routeFrom City Hall to Caz's Chowhouse
175 East 2nd Street to 18 E. Brady Street
We will begin the walk at City Hall which is located on the Northwest corner of Cincinnati and 2nd Street. For those arriving by car, there is parking on the Southeast corner of 2nd and Cincinnati as well as on Cincinnati between 2nd and 1st streets.
There is a small plaza area in front of city hall that is up a couple of steps from the street level. This is where we will meet prior to the walk.
The walk will begin by heading North on Cincinnati to 1st street. We will cross 1st street and then make an immediate left turn.
Proceed West on 1st street past the bus stop and then turn right onto a pathway which will take you toward a metallic tower structure that is located in the pathway. Continue North on the pathway and you will pass the tower and then you will pass the "Center of the Universe" which you should check out if you have never experienced it before. The Center of the Universe is a spot at which your voice will reverberate when you talk.
As you continue North on the path, you will reach Archer Street where you will turn to the right and walk a few steps until you reach a pedestrian crossing.
You will cross Archer at which point you will be heading North along the East side of Boston. You will pass the Hardesty Arts building on your right and there will be some restaurants and bars across the street on your left.
Continue North on Boston for 1 block until you reach Brady Street.
Turn left without crossing Brady and cross over Boston heading West.
Continue on Brady until you reach 18 which is Caz's Chowhouse . This is where we will be dining.
