FirstGroup America, a leader in the transportation industry, will retain and expand its operations in Downtown Cincinnati with substantial capital investment and new job creation at 600 Vine Street. FirstGroup America has committed to capital investments of at least $1 million related to tenant finishes, furniture, fixtures and equipment. The company will add 135 net new jobs over the next three years and will retain the 140 jobs currently located in Downtown Cincinnati.

GO Cincinnnati, a study chaired by Chris Bortz, recommended that the City target transportation firms for growth.
