WSA2013 T H E STORY (source:Cincinnati.com) When two Cincinnatians meet for the first time, one will no doubt soon ask: East Side or West Side? Most agree the city's dividing line at one time called the Sauerkraut Curtain is Vine Street, placing neighborhoods and suburbs such as Price Hill, Westwood and Delhi Township on the West Side; Hyde Park, Oakley and Mariemont, among others, on the East. According to stereotypes, West-Siders are mostly blue-collarworkers, devout Catholics of German or Italian heritage, who rarely move from their closely knit neighborhoods. East-Siders, many believe, are affluent professionals who pull up stakes and move about freely. (Some aren't even born in Cincinnati!) Although West-Siders seem more loyal to their parishes, taverns and high schools, these perceptions are changing. And as far as which side is the wealthiest, a common saying goes: West Siders have more money, but don't spend it, while East Siders have less money, but spend it. C I N C I N N A T I PROUD
WSA2013 T H E DIVIDE When I was a Price Hill 7-year-old, the Berlin Wall went up in Germany. My dad, trying to explain in a way I could grasp, said it would be as if a great wall ran the length on Vine Street, dividing east from west Cincinnati. Uncrossable. Guards ready to shoot anyone who tried. I missed the metaphor. It would be years before I realized there wasn't a wall down the middle of Vine Street. When the Berlin Wall came down in 1990, my childhood image was perfect for this series of cartoons. Having lived about an equal number of years on each side our Wall, I felt qualified to go after our cultural differences. - Jim Borgman, famous Cartoonist C I N C I N N A T I PROUD
