Olden View Park is located atop the terminus of Cincinnati's historic Price Hill Incline, which was originally constructed in 1874 and operated daily until 1943. The incline, which was constructed by William Price, stretched 800 feet along the hill of the same name and rose to an elevation increase of 350 feet at its top. The public park was donated to the City of Cincinnati by Mr. and Mrs. William H. Whiting, the daughter and son-in-law of Cincinnati industrialist Harry L. Olden. It was dedicated and opened to the public in May of 1973. Park visitors can view scenic overlook vistas of the city's skyline or peruse bronze plaques that detail the history of the hill and its incline operations. Plaques are mounted on a granite block wall salvaged from nearby city streets that were slated for asphalt covering in the 1970s.
