Runnels Residence Coffee Chat PDF Print E-mail

When:  May 3rd, 10:00am-12:00pm

Where:  458 Hidden Valley Lane, Cincinnati, OH 45215

Don't miss this fantastic opportunity to see architect Benjamin Dombar's masterpiece home "Good Living," the feature home in the February 2008 issue of Cincinnati Magazine.  Designed in 1965 for the Runnels family, this very large (5500 sq ft) home has been painstakingly maintained and preserved through the years.  Current owners Sherry and Ken Roth are downsizing and have sold the home.  They have graciously agreed to one last bash and have invited cf3 members to come witness Good Living, 1965 style!


The house sits on a secluded 2.5 acre setting and is accessed via a very long private driveway.  To avoid potential traffic jams, we ask that you park on Hidden Valley Lane and walk the driveway to the house.

*Note - This event is limited to 25 cf3 members not including the host. Unsure of your membership status, email Wendy Magee @ This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .  As a courtesy to fellow members and hosts, if you sign up for this event please show up!  Once the 'Yes' replies reaches the capacity for the event, you will be placed on the reserve list on a first come first serve basis.  If a spot opens up we will inform you via email prior to the event that there's more room.  We understand life happens -- if you reserve but can't attend please remove your name from the guest list to allow room for another.  Thank you!

 
The Architecture and Urban Planning Collection PDF Print E-mail

The Architecture and Urban Planning Collection, produced by the Design, Architecture, Art and Planning Library, contains over 2,500 images from China, Africa, Europe, and the United States, especially in Cincinnati. The images in the collection were provided by University of Cincinnati students, faculty, and staff, professional and amateur photographers, and the Cincinnati Preservation Association. Many of the images represent urban planning research projects of DAAP faculty and students. The images in the Architecture and Urban Planning Collection are available to the general public. Visitors to the collection can view thumbnails and large versions of the images, as well as rotate, zoom in and out, magnify particular areas, and print the images. The Architecture and Urban Planning Collection is growing continually. For information on contributing images, please consult with Elizabeth Meyer, Visual Resources Librarian, at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
 
The collection is accessed using Luna Insight software either through the web or through software that is downloaded onto your computer. Here is the web link:  http://digitalprojects.libraries.uc.edu/archurban/index.asp

I created a folder of Cincinnati Modernist buildings. Currently we have 173 images. (Donations are welcome—I have a permission form for anyone who wants to donate their images.)
 
Here is how to access: click on the Insight Browser link when going to the site. Make sure Pop-up blockers are turned off. Then click on group>open group>Cincinnati Modernism
 
If you want to try the download version of the software it is called the Java Client and it has more features. I created a guide on how to install it, how to create image presentations, and download images http://www.libraries.uc.edu/libraries/daap/resources/visualresources/luna.html
 
Let me know if you have any questions,
