The neighborhood was named after George H. Pendleton (1825–1889), a U.S. Representative and Senator whose house still stands in the area.[2]
Sometimes the neighborhood is referred to as the "Pendleton Art District"[3] of Over-the-Rhine because of its small size, but Pendleton and Over-the-Rhine are officially two separate neighborhoods in District 1 of the City of Cincinnati.[4] The Pendleton Art Center, the gem of this district, states that "With eight floors of studios featuring original pine floors, eight foot arched windows and over 200 artists, PAC is the world's largest collection of artists under one roof."[5]
Pendleton is considered a neighborhood in the Over-the-Rhine Historic District by the City of Cincinnati[6] and the Over-the-Rhine Chamber of Commerce.[7]
