My family lives next to Rowe Woods, and we have enjoyed walking Rowe Woods for many years. We have watched with enjoyment in some of the changes. The expansion that has taken place over the years and trail improvements. We’ve also been saddened by some of the changes in Rowe Woods. Many people who worked and did studies at CNC use to be neighbors. Times change and so do places, I hope Stanley would be happy with the changes in the Cincinnati Nature Center at Rowe Woods. His mission was changed, time will tell. CNC is less part of the neighborhood than it was when we first moved here 22 years ago. There were more workers at the Nature Center who lived next to us or in the general area. Mr. Berry was very approachable as were all the workers like Tom and Wanda. Some workers still live near by, other houses have burnt down or were cleared for frontage. It was sad when they removed the nice house that workers and people doing studies of bats and other nature experiments. When Mr. Berry left things began to change. I knew it would not be the same when I saw a good fur tree cut down just to place a sign at the entrance to Rowe Woods. CNC is more about image and business, not being neighborhood friendly Times changes and I guess so has how Cincinnati Nature Center now being operated. It is not like the Sunday pancake gatherings and meeting and talking with workers like the old days. My neighbors and I wonder sometimes about the changes and we just shake our heads. Much in Rowe Woods is the same and much has changed over the last 20 years. To soon to tell what it will be like 20 years from now. I now go to Shor Park Nature Preserve, a free park just south down Tealtown Road and Eastgate. Silvia Shor dedicated it to David Shor her late husband who love the horse farm and nature. A great place to go if you can not afford membership to Cincinnati Nature Center or the daily entrance fees to Rowe Woods. I’m a photographer and have taken many photos in Rowe Woods over the years. Rowe Woods Photographs are available here, and updated regularly, for your enjoyment and perhaps purchase.
