Was just looking at upcoming shows and I checked Madisontheatre.com and see shows for future dates. Is Madison Theatre back open?

Hello Covington Community. I have recently been enlightened to the horrors of ALPRs and Flock. I looked on the deflock website and despite not being able to find a record that the city or PD own an ALPR, there is a camera on 3rd and Madison. does anyone have information on who owns this before I start the arduous process of an open records request? I also find it curious that Covington’s FY2026 adopted budget contains a $107,000 General Fund “Flock Cameras” police initiative, but as far as I found this hasn’t been up for discussion at any city council meeting. I am cautiously optimistic that the community was able to squash these cameras (for now) in Newport, but we must remain vigilant!

Who do you use for lawn services? I need help with a slightly overgrown lawn, weed whacking, and some trimming in a small yard.

I have a roofer but they won’t repair other parts of the house. My gutter system has been poor for a while and needs some new gutters installed and reroute rain water away from one part of patio roof. Because the rain has come down on one place it tore a big chuck of my soffit off my patio in the recent storm, so basically need both soffits and gutters replaced and added to. 120+ year old house.

Anyone know of anyone? Does not have to be licensed as long as has references (you could be one). Bonus if they can reform concrete steps too.

I’m in need of a repair for my bike— any local shops you’d recommend? Preferably within Covington/northern Kentucky, but willing to let my tax dollars go to Ohio if needed.

Going to the pre-season Bengals Lions game. Was wondering what my best NKY parking options are for easy in/easy out? Don’t mind a short walk across one of the bridges.

I was walking around the neighborhood this weekend and did a full lap around the campus.

What a shame to have such an incredible building fall into disrepair.

I did some research and I can see that the property was purchased after St. E relocated, and one small portion of the campus is being used as a nursing home. According to public records the nursing home houses less than 80 long term care patients.

I can see on Google maps that perhaps a hair salon or something operates from there now as well?

I can see the county and city have been citing the property owner (out of state private equity) for years over lack of rodent and insect control.

Has anyone been inside the property recently? Is it just 90%+ empty/unusued?

I'd imagine renovation of a 100+ year old hospital is incredibly expensive: century old mechanicals, asbestos, etc. But does the city have any way to force them to at least clean the exterior of the building?​​

Does anyone have any information on any effort to see the property through to its potential?

I lost my keys on or around the West Pike Street and Washington Street on Saturday afternoon. If anybody find them or had found them then please message me.

I am in town for the day and need a place to hang out and work. I'm not looking for anything too particular, just somewhere decently comfortable with an outlet where I can spend my day. Does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks!

Hello! I’m looking for a pet friendly rental in Covington with an October 1 ish move-in date. Our budget is around $1,900 for a 2 bedroom (ideally). If anyone knows of an upcoming vacancy or a landlord planning to list soon, we’d appreciate any leads. Thanks!!
