A Cincinnati landmark with a century-long legacy is shutting down for good—Batsakes Hat Shop, founded in 1907 by Greek immigrants Pete and George Batsakes, will close in September 2026. Once anchored under the Terrace Plaza Hotel and later led by Gus Miller (who brought in presidents, Pavarotti, Dylan, and Snoop Dogg), the shop moved downtown last year but now faces its final chapter. Its closure marks the end of an era for a beloved local institution that’s shaped generations of style.

Cincinnati Public Schools is pushing for voter approval of a new 0.75% earned income tax levy this November, targeting only working residents to fund essential programs like Montessori and career tech—critical as deeper cuts loom without it.

Cincinnati Public Schools is rolling out a bold new plan to fund its operations: an earned income tax instead of the traditional property tax.
