Purple People Bridge and Newport on the Levy
Stand in two states at once! The Newport Southbank Bridge — popularly known as the Purple People Bridge — is a pedestrian-only bridge that stretches 2,670 feet (one-half of a mile) across the Ohio River, connecting Newport, Ky. to downtown Cincinnati and to trails along the river in both states. Newport on the Levy houses the Aquarium and plenty of shops and restaurants!
Washington Park
Washington Park is at the center of many of OTR's best restaurants, bars and entertainment. Aside from the never-ending activity and events at the park itself, you’ll find plenty to do nearby.
