Sawyer Point Park & Yeatman's Cove
Sawyer Point Park & Yeatman's Cove are a pair of side-by-side parks on the riverfront of downtown Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. The two linear parks stretch one mile along the north shore of the Ohio River.[1]
Yeatman's Cove
Yeatman's Cove park occupies the former site of a tavern established in 1793 by Griffin Yeatman.[2] Yeatman's establishment was the first tavern in Cincinnati, and as such was very popular with men working on the river.[3]
Yeatman's Cove is a popular place to watch the Cincinnati Bell/WEBN Riverfest at Labor Day weekend.[4]
Yeatman's Cove features a colossal bronze statue of Cincinnatus, the namesake of Cincinnati.
Serpentine Wall
The Serpentine Wall is a serpentine-shaped flood wall on the banks of the Ohio River. It was completed in 1976.[5]
The wall features steps descending to the river upon which visitors can sit and look across to Northern Kentucky.[6]
The riverfront wall is at Yeatman's Cove, between Sawyer Point park and the Public Landing.
