Preserve the Hillside. Grow the Park. Protect the Legacy.
The Opportunity
Cincinnati has a rare opportunity to protect a 27-acre hillside adjacent to Mt. Storm Park, preserving connected green space, safeguarding one of the city’s overlooks and expanding this park by more than 50%.
30 Acres. 30 Years.
With 3 acres already preserved in recent years, this campaign represents a significant step forward in Cincinnati Parks Foundation’s long-term commitment to protecting and growing our city’s green spaces.
Why It Matters
This hillside links Mt. Storm to a broader network of parks and natural areas, strengthening ecological continuity and preserving a vital wildlife corridor. Mt. Storm offers a view that invites you to pause and to appreciate what could be lost. Once you see it, the case for preservation becomes clear. Protecting this land ensures that future generations experience the same beauty, access, and connection we value today.

A Look at Mt. Storm
Visit Mt. Storm
Mt. Storm Park is a hilltop escape shaped by history, views and neighborhood life. Once part of a grand Clifton estate, the park still carries a sense of romance through its open lawns, mature trees and the iconic Temple of Love pavilion. Today, it is a place to gather, play and take in the landscape, with a playground, shelter, walking paths, sledding hill and sweeping views toward the Mill Creek Valley. Come experience Mt. Storm for yourself and see how one of Cincinnati’s most memorable hilltop parks connects past and present.
