It's a lawsuit and a media campaign, the multipronged assault that developer Pauline Van der Haer has launched against the city of Cincinnati.

The principal owner of Inwood Village and Dorian Development sued the city for $15.5 million in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court June 21. Van der Haer claims city officials failed to honor a series of contracts to subsidize her housing development at the former Glencoe Apartments near Christ Hospital.

To bolster her case, she developed a blog entitled, "Was Mark Twain Right?"

"That was a master plan concept that included a future phase of new construction," Van der Haer said of the renderings on her blog. "The tall building would have been a condominium tower overlooking the park. It was a future project that would have likely been developed had the city not breached its commitment to me."
