WASHINGTON — Vice President Joe Biden plans to come to Cincinnati on Thursday to see how the city is using some of its federal economic stimulus money.

Biden, tasked by President Obama with overseeing the spending of federal stimulus dollars, is expected to visit the Factory Square development at the former American Can Co. factory, according to one of the developers working to turn the abandoned can factory into apartments and commercial space.

Cincinnati plans to use some $1.6 million in community development block grant money from the $787 billion stimulus package on the project.

The White House would not confirm the visit.
