The L.B. Robb Drugstore was a historic pharmacy in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Erected in 1860, it was a four-story building, constructed of brick on a stone foundation and topped with a slate roof. The building was a simple rectangle in its floor plan, although not without embellishments: the roof, which rose to gables on the sides, was crowned by a large central chimney, while the gables were ornamented with machicolations, and the walls were anchored by brick pilasters. After the drugstore was completed, it was modified by the addition of a wooden porch to one of the sides; aside from the porch, it measured four bays on the front, four on the rear, and four on each side. The windows were of plain lintel construction with lugsills on the sides.From its earliest years, the building was used as a drugstore; it is certain that it was used for such a purpose for some time before 1868. In 1928, it was purchased by Arthur Clauder, who also owned Clauder's Pharmacy next door. Today, no drugstore occupies the site: the building has been destroyed, and the site is now an empty lot. While still in good condition, the L.B. Robb Drugstore was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. It was one of seventeen Columbia-Tusculum properties included in a multiple property submission related to a historic preservation survey conducted in the previous year; most of the properties were buildings, but the Columbia Baptist and Fulton-Presbyterian Cemeteries were also included.

The Mardot Antique Shop was a historic commercial building in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1889, it was a weatherboarded structure with a slate roof and built on a stone foundation. Three stories tall, the building was a simple rectangle, two bays by three, and it featured a simple symmetrical facade with a cast iron front and many windows. Other architectural features included multiple dormers in the roof (a mansard roof), a small cornice with brackets, and a recessed portion of the storefront surrounding the main entrance.In 1979, the Mardot was listed on the National Register of Historic Places due to its historically significant architecture, which was deemed to be in excellent condition. It was one of seventeen Columbia-Tusculum properties included in a multiple property submission related to a historic preservation survey conducted in the previous year; most of the properties were buildings, but the Columbia Baptist and Fulton-Presbyterian Cemeteries were also included. Despite this distinction, the Mardot Antique Shop has been demolished; the site is now an empty lot.

The Pioneer Memorial Cemetery (also known as Columbia Baptist Church Cemetery) is a historic pioneer cemetery in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. It is located on a small hill overlooking Lunken Airport at 333 Wilmer Avenue on Cincinnati's east side. The oldest cemetery in Hamilton County, it lies at the site of Columbia Baptist Church, founded in 1790. Columbia is the oldest settlement in Hamilton County, as it was founded in 1788, one month before Losantiville (later Cincinnati). The cemetery is the only extant remnant of the Columbia settlement.Included in this cemetery is the grave of Major Benjamin Stites, 1734–1804, founding father of Columbia. The fellow founder of Columbia and pioneer, soldier, and legislator Ephraim Kibbey (1756–1809) is memorialized here on the monument "To the First Boat-load" erected in 1879.Frederick L. Payne, then Supervising Horticulturalist for the Park Board, began a restoration project in 1967 for the cemetery. The cemetery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places under its historic name of "Columbia Baptist Cemetery".Since 1958, the Pioneer Cemetery has been known as an archaeological site — in that year, evidence was discovered that the terrace upon which the cemetery lies was once a Native American village site. Due to the presence of the cemetery, no excavation has ever been conducted there; consequently, all that is known about the village is that it was inhabited during the Woodland period.The Cincinnati Parks Department maintains the property.

McKinley School is a historic school building in Cincinnati, Ohio. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on August 24, 1979.

The Norwell Residence is a historic house in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. A Victorian building constructed in 1890, it is a weatherboarded structure with a stone foundation and a shingled roof. The overall floor plan of the house is irregular: two and half stories tall, the house is shaped like the letter "L" but appears to be a rectangle, due to the presence of two separate porches that fill in the remaining area. Many ornate details characterize it, including imbricated shingles on the westward-facing gable end of the house, a frieze with spindles on the railing of the primary porch, and small yet cunningly crafted braces for the same porch. Yet more distinctive is the secondary porch, which sits atop the primary one; it features braces and spindles similar to those of the primary porch.Due to its virtually unchanged architecture, the Norwell Residence was called "outstanding" in a 1978 historic preservation survey that studied the architecture of Columbia-Tusculum. Contributing to its importance is its relationship with surrounding houses: eight other residences in the immediate vicinity were patterned after the Norwell Residence. Because of its architectural significance, it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979. It was one of seventeen Columbia-Tusculum properties included in a multiple property submission related to the previous year's historic preservation survey; most of the properties were buildings, but the Columbia Baptist and Fulton-Presbyterian Cemeteries were also included.

William Brown (1759–1808) was a soldier for the Continental Army during the American Revolutionary War. He was born in Stamford and enlisted in the 5th Connecticut Regiment as a corporal on 23 May 1775, and re-enlisted as a private on 9 April 1777, for the duration of the war in the 8th Connecticut Regiment. He was promoted to corporal on 8 May 1779, and to sergeant on 1 August 1780, transferring with the consolidation of units to the 5th Connecticut Regiment on 1 January 1781, and to the 2nd Connecticut Regiment on 1 January 1783. He was awarded the Badge of Military Merit, one of only three people to be awarded the medal that later became the Purple Heart. No record of his citation has been uncovered, but it is believed that he participated in the assault on Redoubt No. 10 during the siege of Yorktown. After the war he moved west to a newly developed river town called Cincinnati, Ohio. When President George Washington sent General Anthony Wayne out to Cincinnati in the spring of 1793 to take charge of subduing the Indians, one of Wayne's first acts was to call upon William Brown to furnish him with a "company of spies". It is possible that Brown joined the General at the Battle of Fallen Timbers. He lived out his days in Cincinnati, his original tombstone was lost to time; possibly stolen or destroyed. On 24 July 2004, at a cemetery across the street from what is known as Cincinnati Municipal Lunken Airport, a new tombstone was laid out in remembrance to Sgt. William Brown.

The Stephen Decker Rowhouse is a historic multiple residence in the Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Built in 1889, it occupies land that was originally a portion of the wide vineyards of Nicholas Longworth. In 1869, after his death, Longworth's estate was platted and sold to builders who constructed a residential neighborhood along Tusculum Avenue. One of the most unusual buildings was the Decker rowhouse, which features multiple distinctive Victorian elements. Chief among these is the ornamentation on the porch roofs: they include gabled rooflines and beveled corners supported by multiple spindles. Connecting these porch roofs are low normal roofs, which primarily protect the recessed entrances to the houses. Elsewhere, the houses feature double-hung windows, imbricated shingles on the gables, and arcades of Gothic Revival panelling, and numerous ornamental circles inscribed within squares. Taken as a single building, the rowhouse measures two bays wide and eighteen bays long; it is of frame construction and two stories tall. Rated "outstanding" by an architectural survey in 1978,: 10  it is the only rowhouse of its type in Cincinnati, due to its well-preserved Victorian architecture.: 13 In 1979, the Stephen Decker Rowhouse was listed on the National Register of Historic Places because of its historically significant architecture, as had been recognized by the survey of the previous year. It was one of seventeen Columbia-Tusculum properties included in a multiple property submission related to that survey; most of the properties were buildings, but the Columbia Baptist and Fulton-Presbyterian Cemeteries were also included.

The August Bepler House is a historic residence in the city of Cincinnati, Ohio, United States. Located along Tusculum Avenue in that city's Columbia-Tusculum neighborhood, the house was built in 1869 for a wealthy inventor and industrialist, and it has been named a historic site. August Bepler made himself wealthy by inventing a machine to produce a new type of product, the flat-bottomed paper bag. The foreign-born Bepler settled in the United States in 1851; within four years he had formed a company to manufacture paper bags in the Cincinnati-area village of Lockland, although he relocated the firm to Cincinnati in 1858. Using the wealth gained from the company, Bepler arranged for the construction of the present house in 1869. He later paid for the construction of a second house to functionally the same design, but this later house, located in St. Louis, Missouri, is no longer standing.Two stories tall with a weatherboarded exterior, the house rests on a stone foundation, is covered with a tin roof, and features elements of brick. A large bay window occupies much of the side on the left of a viewer facing the front of the house, while the facade itself features a large columned porch; the columns are topped with capitals resembling those of the ancient Corinthian order. Together with smaller elements, the colonnade creates an excellent Neoclassical appearance, a style not particularly common in the area.In 1977, the Bepler House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places, qualifying both because of its historically significant architecture and because it had been the home of a prominent local resident.
