BLUE ASH TOWNE SQUARE

Towne Square is located in downtown Blue Ash, and is considered the "heart" of our community. The Square was dedicated in July 1987, and serves as the site for many community events and concerts, including the SummerBration and Taste of Blue Ash special events, as well as the popular Friday evening Concerts on the Square during the summer months. The Square is located near the Hunt and Cooper Roads intersection, and is adjacent to the Veterans Memorial Park. Since its original dedication, improvements have been made to the Square over the years, including the addition (and subsequent expansion) of the concert shell, paver and landscaping improvements, and more.

MILLENNIUM CLOCK BELL TOWER

The Blue Ash Millennium American Heritage Bell Tower was dedicated in May 2000 as Blue Ash's Millennium project. The major feature of the clock bell tower is the inclusion of etchings and related historical information inscribed upon black granite panels placed within the clock bell tower's supporting columns. The tehem for the granite etchings is to honor all-time great Americans. At its dedication in the Year 2000, tribute to 24 Americans was included on the tower's legs. In 2005, in celebration of Blue Ash's 50th year of its incorporation as a City, an additional 12 panel tributes were added.
