From this vantage point, one can see downtown Cincinnati which includes the famous Carew Tower, the headquarters of Proctor & Gamble and the Great American Ballpark, Home of the Cincinnati Reds.
One is also afforded a view of the Interstate 471 bridge over the Ohio River. Officially named the Daniel Beard Bridge, locally it is called the Big Mac bridge because of the bright yellow arches. Across the Ohio are the communities of Newport and Belleveu Kentucky are visible. If one looks off in the distance, one can see the meandering hills that form the sides of the Ohio River valley.
Note: One doesn't have to climb the many stairs to reach this view. The church is accessible by road, however be warned that the roads of Mt. Adams are narrow and heavily trafficked. Parking near the church is at a premium. It is easier (though not always easy) to find parking at the bottom of the steps.
To log a visit to this waymark you need to include one or more pictures taken from atop the steps. Please indicate in your log whether you climbed the steps or drove to the top.
