Back to the Ohio River. On the last episode of this little Post-Apocalyptic Cincinnati thing the biggest issue was water, so we're heading back downtown for easy access once again!
Paul Brown Stadium is home to the Cincinnati Bengals. The Stadium itself seems like it would be easy enough to defend. You could post up a few snipers and have some pretty good coverage. What I like about it is ability to sustain some electricity. You could line the tops of the stadium with some makeshift windmills. At that height, you should have some sustained winds that could keep it flowing. Plus, being near the river helps with the wind sweeping through. The field could be a solar panel field that would get sunlight throughout the entire day.
The land surrounding Paul Brown is perfect for planting crops. It has easy access to water with the Ohio River being adjacent to it and running the entire length of the area. The only concern would be people taking shots at you from across the river. You could construct some walls, but overall it would still be pretty difficult to maintain. The settlement would do best by controlling both sides of the river.
Across from the area where most of the crops would be grown is an expansive parking garage area that could be used for storage, living quarters, whatever you needed. Also, being close to downtown like this would create some wonderful lookout points with views in all directions from very high up.
Overall, I think this would make for an excellent location to rebuild.
