Uptown Consortium, Inc. (UCI)

Uptown Consortium, Inc. (UCI) brings local neighborhood, civic and institutional leaders together to focus on opportunities in transportation, safety, economic development, community inclusion and more. To date, the Consortium's efforts have facilitated $1.4 billion in development projects (redevelopment, new construction and neighborhood improvements) in Uptown Cincinnati, inducing over $2.4 billion in total project investments throughout Uptown. Founded in 2004, Uptown Consortium was forged by the leaders of Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati Zoo & Botanical Garden, UC Health (formerly Health Alliance of Greater Cincinnati), TriHealth, Inc. and the University of Cincinnati. These anchor institutions shared the idea that they could accomplish more — for themselves and the Cincinnati neighborhoods where they live and work — by working together.
