History
editThe original owners of part of the land were Jacob Burnet and William McMillan.[2] The neighborhood's namesake, William Corry, was an early mayor of Cincinnati and himself a prominent landowner in the Corryville area. German Americans largely settled the village of Corryville, moving north up the hillside from the congested Over-the-Rhine basin.[3] Corryville was annexed to the City of Cincinnati in 1870.[4]
Expansion of the University of Cincinnati in the 1960s resulted in the construction of a shopping center, known as University Plaza, along sections of Vine Street. This development, which included rerouting Vine Street, reinforced the unofficial name of the section of Vine Street in Corryville, which had been referred to as "Short Vine" since the 1920s.[5]
Further expansion of the university in the 2000s resulted in further development.[citation needed] The neighborhood increasing became inhabited by university students. Consequently, property values in the area increased year-over-year since 2005, causing renewed interest in economic investment in the area while furthering the demographic shift of the area. According to Realtor.com, the average home price in Corryville is $232,812 compared with $174,900 for Cincinnati. Additionally, the average cost per square foot is $176 compared with $71 for Cincinnati.[6]
