Did you read the previous posts from folks who toured the property?

59/287 = ~20% vacant, so it's more than just 2/3 filled.

The only people who think blockchain is a scam are the ones who don't fully understand it.

^ Yes, just look at the number of units being built (or permits pulled for new housing) inside the city limits vs outside. It's a staggering difference.

Gotta love the density nuCLEus is going to add to the skyline

^ No, especially since recent migration trends are showing the opposite.

When did the estimates become more accurate? They weren't accurate in 2009 as the 2010 census proved for Cincinnati. How can one know they've improved since then if we haven't had an actual count since 2010?

Lorain Ave is on fire... Pittsburgh-Based Arsenal Cider to Open Local Cidery in Ohio City Work has already begun on the Cleveland location, which is located on the ground floor of the Go Media building (4507 Lorain Ave.) across the street from Forest City Shuffleboard. Arsenal will be producing cider onsite from local fruit, supplementing the offerings with product from the mothership as well as local beers. The 15-barrel system and fermenters will be visible in the 30-seat taproom, which will feature a rustic, woodsy vibe like the original. Look for Arsenal Cider House to open this summer. “We’re excited,” Bill says “The more time I spend in Cleveland, the more I love it.” https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2019/04/12/pittsburgh-based-arsenal-cider-to-open-local-cidery-in-ohio-city?fbclid=IwAR2UoDJQVrqp9clBpHe_OBcwKoLijNddcyLc9WL4HUNwiQrUI5I0Idrv5Zs

Former Woodhill Supply site in Little Italy sells, potential future development of new houses CLEVELAND, Ohio – Those looking to move to Little Italy may soon have an opportunity to buy a house on a site that was once home to an industrial operation. University Circle Inc. recently scooped up a vacant 2-acre property at East 123rd Street and Coltman Road, near the border between Little Italy and University Circle, in a nearly $2 million deal. The non-profit group plans to work closely with its neighboring community development organization, the Little Italy Redevelopment Corp., to develop a strategic plan for the site that was home to Woodhill Supply, Inc. for decades. Leaders of both organizations say they see the property, which sits in a residential area close to numerous well-known institutions in both neighborhoods, as an opportunity to add for-sale housing to an in-demand neighborhood. https://www.cleveland.com/business/2019/04/former-woodhill-supply-site-in-little-italy-sells-potential-future-development-of-new-houses.html

^ Damn, that's moving!

The units in site plot "C" have always been listed at 399k and up.

That car lot is getting purchased by the good folks at Forest City Shuffleboard. They're going to build a mixed-used development there, and have plans to build on the site where Steve's Lunch once stood. The same group also bought the Santiago's car shop on Bridge and 47th. Their plans show 12 townhomes, which should be made public in the next week or so.

^ @YABO713 You're talking the north side of Detroit, right?

To put this in perspective, the 2015 budget for residential streets was only $4M. Cleveland to target as much as $14M at side streets in 2019, but which streets will be on the paving list? CLEVELAND, Ohio -- The city plans to devote more money to repaving side streets for the fourth year in a row, with the total this year expected to be as much as $14 million. On Monday, members of City Council are scheduled to meet with the city’s head of public works, Michael Cox, and others from Mayor Frank Jackson’s administration to begin sorting out which streets will be on this year’s paving list. https://www.cleveland.com/cityhall/2019/03/cleveland-to-target-as-much-as-14m-at-side-streets-in-2019-but-which-streets-will-be-targeted.html

Construction fences just went up around the Franklin Circle, which is the future site of the 119-unit apartment building by Casto.

The office tower is going to top out at 353' (basically the Beacon), while the apartment portion will be ~310'.

Yes, both of my new neighbors moved here for jobs and affordability. Don't shoot the messenger. https://chicago.cbslocal.com/2019/03/06/millennials-leaving-chicago-cost-of-living/ I hear you about anecdotes, but I've lived in the city since 2009 and have never witnessed this amount of out-of-state license plates before. I've also never met so many new folks like I have in the previous 1.5yrs. On some streets the east coast license plates outnumber the Ohio plates. I guess you're gonna have take our word for it, or move to Cleveland like everyone else : )

Someone from Chicago just bought the house right next door to me (sold in 6 hours). Likewise, the house directly across from me was purchased last June by a couple from Michigan. Jobs and affordability are drawing newcomers to Cleveland. Laugh if you want, but the growth is real. Stats showing what we're observing at ground level typically lag a year or two behind.

By the end of 2021 Stark will have added 3 buildings over 20-stories to the downtown Cleveland skyline. He's a gd legend in my book.

Highly Anticipated nuCLEus Submits Schematic Design for City Approval Stark Enterprises is pleased to announce that after years of hard work, the highly anticipated mixed-use development plan for nuCLEus was submitted today to the City of Cleveland for schematic design approval. Upon approval, this would propel the project forward with a target groundbreaking date of August 2019. Since the project’s beginning in 2014, Stark Enterprises’ CEO and poet developer, Bob Stark, envisioned a new 21st-century focal point and connector for Downtown Cleveland. The nuCLEus plan creates two parallel towers with 80,000 sq. feet of commercial space, 350,000 sq. feet of residential space and 400,000 sq. feet of Class-A office space. The mixed-use plan for nuCLEus has two distinctive towers, both containing 24 floors. The 1st tower will consist of residential units capping out at 310 ft tall and the 2nd tower will consist of efficient Class-A office space above retail, social gathering spaces, dining, entertainment, and parking capping out at 353 feet tall. https://starkenterprises.com/highly-anticipated-nucleus-submits-schematic-design-for-city-approval/?fbclid=IwAR1r8zf29wmRcPU-pU8ntpyejAnJCcP09P_V0g4Gv_uFUG0dN3M_hRS96T8

Cities are way more resilient than suburbs. As the population shift back to the city continues, it will gain more and more power. Regionalism is going to happen here, it's just a matter of when.

This is just the preliminary budget estimate, the actual budget will be released sometime early March. Sorry to interrupt the Cleveland bash session. Carry on.
