History

The Ascension Walk Steps are tucked just east of 4826 Eastern Avenue in Linwood, easily missed by passersby. Built in the 1930s by the Works Projects Administration (WPA), the steps lead up to the former Linwood Elementary School grounds. Linwood was considered its own little town before being annexed to Cincinnati in 1896, and the steps connected the community's multiple vertical levels.
