This is a really nice, legible way to show the breakdown of funding that people will understand. Yes, the streetcar is expensive, but it’s a long-term investment that will greatly benefit the city of Cincinnati.
I agree, it does seems like a lot of money, but the payback long term will be immense. Businesses will increase and neighborhoods will improve all around the stops (think of every other city with transit). A streetcar will definitely attract people to live in and enjoy our city–Cincinnati it such a diverse, great place!
