High atop one of Cincinnati's most prominent hilltops stands the two-story
Greek Revival house where William Howard Taft was born and grew up. Hard work,
a good education, and an interest in civic duty are attributes that made the
Taft family outstanding leaders over the years. The environment that shaped
Taft's character and philosophy is highlighted on a visit to the site.
