Seasonal pop-up on Fountain Square plaza (520 Vine St, downtown Cincinnati). The official Fountain Square site programs a regulation pickleball court on the roller-rink sport-tile surface, reservable in one-hour sessions ($20/hr incl. paddles/balls) with walk-up availability; the surface converts between skating and pickleball. Documented as an April seasonal offering — active status varies by season.
