Fort Thomas is, of course, known for its amazing schools. But Tower Park may just be one of my favorite places in all of NKY. I also love the amazingly grand old houses you can drive by and see on N Fort Thomas Ave. I imagine what it must have been like back in the late 1800's early 1900's when I stand on some of those porches and look around!
