Long time to close but I guess without the new hotel being done they have time to close for now.

That’s a pretty long while. I guess the yearly conventions will have to postpone or find a temporary location

It looks like the companies that organize major conventions here were blindsided by this news.

The current plan is to push all conventions to Sharonville during renovations, which these companies say is not large enough for their shows.

Good find on that article. I can understand a few months but 18 takes an entire year’s worth of conventions out. Granted, I rarely go to any events there but it definitely has a place.

You can view the article if you are a Cincinnati Library cardholder by going to this url

Then you have to navigate to the article itself somehow. I think it should be this
