Construction work began in Cincinnati metro in 1920. But after seven years dedicated to the project of $ 6 million over and the city authorities have decided that the city is quite complete without the subway. To this conclusion they came after studying the reports of independent experts. Further works were stopped, though by this time had already completed laying of tunnels.
The idea was born to build a subway in 1884, the project is supported
by both Democrats and Republicans. But after the First World War and as a
result of demographic changes need the subway anymore. Luckily for the
residents of Cincinnati, referendums on the allocation of funds for the
completion of the metro, not just carried out for 80 years, recognized
venture with Metro a waste of money and effort.
The project was part of the plan for the technological progress of the period, But the Great Depression and the Second World War have left no chance for his existence. Photo Credit
