Cleveland: Crime & Safety Discussion
Deadly mob beating unnerves Cleveland neighborhood May 12 04:53 PM US/Eastern By THOMAS J. SHEERAN Associated Press Writer CLEVELAND (AP) - Even by tough, urban-crime standards it was a grisly attack: Up to 15 people chased a man, then kicked and beat him to death on the street. Before police arrived, one attacker urinated on the victim's head. When the crime-hardened neighborhood awoke later that morning, two people reported a man lying on the pavement, his clothes being dragged off by his assailants. ...

Dayton: Random Development and News
In the south suburb of Oakwood, there is a new development being constructed. It is on the the old Sugar Camp facility formerly owned by NCR. There is much history to the site that hopefully will be explained in later posts. Here is a bird's eye view of the area in discussion. It is bounded by W. Schantz Ave to the south, Far Hills Ave to the east, Riverview Cemetery to the west and the city of Dayton to the north (Dayton Daily News headquarters/NCR Old River). Oakwood OKs new plan for Sugar Camp The Oakwood Planning Commission approved a recommendation from two developers to alter their City Council-approved residential plan for the Sugar Camp Development. On April 23, 2007, the Council approved the residential plan for the 36-plus acre property, once owned by NCR, at Far Hills and Schantz avenues. The developers, Oakwood Investment Group and Versant Group, want to: • Relocate the mid-rise condos from the northeast to the northwest corner of the site. • Reduce the number of condos from four to two and increase each from four stories to seven • Change the use of the two-acre parcel north of the main entrance from business to residential. • Erect four- to six- unit townhomes, increasing the density of the development from 125 to 147 units. Here are some images from Versant's website: ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Aerial before construction: Current conditions: Planned final: -------------------------------------------------------------------- This project raises a lot of questions about the region's real estate market. Does anyone actually think young families won't move into these homes and increase the student population in Oakwood schools? What does this say about other area developments like Ballpark Village and UD's campus west? Is this sort of first-tier development good for the center city by offering new housing near the city instead of in sprawl-land?

Off Topic
Peabody, DID YOU LOOK AT THE LINK? You can get travelers check in VARIOUS CURRENCIES which is why I provided the AMEX link! Hello!!! :wtf: :wtf: Again, a travelers check is just like cash. You give it with currency and they bring you change, why do you need to go to a bank?? Please help me understand that? Even if you need to change the currency, AMEX locations are open all over the world, so yes, I think you're overreacting when I've given you VERY VIABLE and realistic options, to get you off on your holiday without worrying. It's not that I'm defending Key, I'm trying to get you to look at both sides of the picture regarding a renewal credit card. Three weeks is not enough time to get a new card replacement when the current card is being processed. Understand? ^This post is hilarious!

What will YOU do with your fiscal stimulus check?
Honestly, I think it's ridiculous. I'm not belittling anyone. Teach people how to save and make their money work for them instead of giving a "fake" bump in the economy. Most people have said they will use this to pay down debt. ^Amen brother! ^ yes, yes, and yes! that's a key/oft-overlooked point to ending vicious cycles.

If I was eligible to receive one, I'd send it back to the Federal Government since it obviously knows how to best spend taxpayers' money!!! :speech:

Cincinnati: Downtown: The Banks
America should always think of slavery as unfortunate, and refer to it as such; lest we forget that it was so, and risk forgetting that it was wrong. If you cannot believe that such things can be forgotten to history, you aren't a very good student of history. I tire of people getting off topic on UO.

Cincinnati...it always goes down smooth
With the weather breaking, the cranes in OTR, the approved streetcar, and construction underway at the Banks, I look at Cincinnati with even fonder eyes. I respect it more and more with each step it takes.
