From the North ...

From I-71 South: Take the Gilbert Avenue/Reading Road exit. Follow the exit for Reading Road and Elsinore Place; turn left on Elsinore and follow it across to Gilbert. Turn left on Gilbert and, at the next light, turn right onto Eden Park Drive. Stay in the right lane and when the road forks, go right onto Art Museum Drive. Pass the Art Museum. The Playhouse driveway is the next available left just past the stone wall. Proceed to the top of the hill.
From I-75 South: Follow the signs to downtown and follow Columbia Parkway, US 50 East. Then see From the West.

From the East (local) ...

Take Columbia Parkway west along the Ohio River to Kemper Lane (the next light after the Taft/Torrence light). Turn right onto Kemper Lane and go uphill until the first street on the left, which is Luray. Turn left onto Luray and go to the stop sign where it merges onto Victory Parkway. Stay on the Parkway into Eden Park. Pass the Krohn Conservatory and bear straight, then around a bend to the right to Mirror Lake. Bear left around the small lake then turn left onto Art Museum Drive. Continue on Art Museum Drive around a sharp bend to the right. Pass the open-air Seasongood Pavilion on the left and the Cincinnati Art Museum on the right, then look for our driveway (next left - up a hill).

From the South ...

Take I-75 across the Ohio River and follow the signs for I-71 when the interstate forks. This puts you on Ft. Washington Way. Then see From the West.

Or, if taking I-471 from Kentucky ...
Take 471 across the Ohio River, and stay in the right-hand lane to the Columbia Parkway exit. Go up steep hill onto Columbia Parkway, but immediately exit right onto Martin Drive (be careful because it sneaks up on you). Go to the 2nd street on the left, Parkside Place, and turn left. Follow Parkside up the hill where it dead-ends into Louden. Go left on Louden and at the first stop sign turn right onto Paradrome. Go one short block on Paradrome and at the stop sign, take a hairpin turn to the right, which will put you on our driveway.

From the West (local) ...

Traveling on Ft. Washington Way, follow the signs for Columbia Parkway (US 50 East). Just past the exit for I-471, take the Martin Drive exit on the right from Columbia Parkway (which is also marked Mt. Adams and Eden Park; be careful because it sneaks up on you). Bear right again at the end of the exit onto Martin Drive and go to the 2nd street on the left, Parkside Place, and turn left. Follow Parkside up the steep hill where it dead-ends into Louden. Go left on Louden and at the first stop sign turn right onto Paradrome. Go one short block on Paradrome, and at the stop sign take a hairpin turn to the right, which will put you on our driveway.

Next, take a left on Gilbert and stay in the right-hand lane. At the next light, turn right onto Eden Park Drive. Stay in the right-hand lane.
