Hyde Park Square is the central urban square of Cincinnati's Hyde Park neighborhood, known as one of the city's oldest and trendiest retail and dining districts. The neighborhood, which was originally developed in 1896 as a nature-focused "cityburb" by a group of citizen activists, is home to more than 175 unique local boutiques, restaurants, and entertainment destinations, located less than five miles from Cincinnati's downtown core. It is anchored around the beautiful Hyde Park Square, which is located along Erie Avenue between Edwards and Michigan Streets.
Landscaped lawns and gardens surround the historic Kilgour Fountain, which was originally donated to the City of Cincinnati in 1900 and fully restored to its original splendor in 2003. Visitors can sit on park benches and enjoy ice cream from nearby Graeter's Ice Cream, a regional French pot ice cream chain, or grab breakfast nearby at the popular diner The Echo. Each Sunday morning between May and October, the park hosts the Hyde Park Square Farmers' Market. Other annual special events include the October Hyde Park Art Show and the Hyde Park BLAST multigenerational racing event.
