Black music walk of fame is taking shape
On a quarter acre of the Cincinnati Riverfront a series of concrete slopes and pillars are taking shape. Due for competion in the summer, the $8.5 million dollar project is the Cincinnati Black Music Walk of Fame. "When you first come in," says Founder of the Walk and Hamilton Commission President Alicia Reece, "You'll be hit with different kiosks and the kiosks and stars are spread out." Reece, on a hard hat walking tour with WCPO 9 News Anchor Tanya O'Rourke, explained that the "Walk" will be far more than an outdoor stroll. Reece says it will be interactive, filled with light shows, the latest technology and opportunities for people with hearing and sight disabilities to participate. Renderings found on the Cincinnati Black Music Walk of Fame website show bright displays and, according to Reece, a way for visitors to interact and "play" with Cincinnati music legend, Bootsy Collins. "In here will be a screen," Reece said on the site tour, gesturing to what is currently an empty concrete box, "Bootsy will come out on the screen and say 'hey guys, my band didnt' show up. Can you help me out?' and there will be a place for you to stand and you start dancing and they're in with Bootsy Collins, playing with him."
