Great news in paradise! Tesla cuts the price of the Model 3. https://www.cnn.com/2019/02/06/business/tesla-model-3-price-cut/index.html

^ Damn, you just mic dropped all of northern Urban Ohio. Well done!

700k less

It'll happen eventually, because it has to.

^ No idea why they were interested in it other than it's available for sale and development, and there's not too many sites out there like it. My understanding is they've moved on and are searching elsewhere. There's a brochure you can download to see the parcels for sale. Other nearby owners are pretty much being held hostage until Sam makes his move. https://www.crescorealestate.com/search/home/property?id=41142

Sure can. Sam had an offer for his property, which includes more than just the Big Egg footprint. It was from a large medical company (outside of the region) wanting to build new office space on his parcels. He basically said "no, I want double that" on what was a very generous (over 7 figure) offer. The guy is NUTS. Hopefully something can get down with him and his cousin who owns the car dealership on the north side of Detroit next to the new school. There's interest.

Too bad the owner of the Bid Egg is holding up a MAJOR new potential office development.

^ Yeah, I understand that. We're never going to have an apples to apples situation unless you have two cities with the exact same land sq footage and geographical terrain.

Using overall population, Lakewood is more than twice as dense as Columbus.

^right on

Agree on most your points, but the data does show Cleveland is denser than the Columbus. Cleveland 2017 population - 385,525 Columbus 2017 population - 879,170 Cleveland land area (square miles) - 78 Columbus land area ( square miles) - 217 Cleveland population density 385,525 / 78 = 4,942 Columbus population density 879,170 / 217 = 4,051

^ My guy!

Again, you're talking about density in the overall population, which is a bit different than what measuring numbers w/in a given radius would show. You can't say just look at the population density for the city of Cleveland in this instance. That's not what DEPA is reporting on at all.

This is 100% correct. I'm not sure why a few posters on here have such a hard time comprehending this explanation of basic facts?? GEOGRAPHY does play a difference! How much of difference is anyone's guess.

You're just speculating now. No one knows for sure what Cleveland's density or building patterns would be like w/out the lake, so move on.

What's to explain? I already said it doesn't affect the total populations, so either grasp the basic concepts of measuring and math, or don't.

It doesn't affect the total population, but it does affect how the population is measured w/in the radius. This isn't rocket science, bud.

Cleveland hotel occupancy in 2018 rebounds, exceeds Republican National Convention year CLEVELAND, Ohio – Hotel occupancy in downtown Cleveland and throughout Northeast Ohio inched up in 2018, to a rate higher than the year the Republican National Convention came to town. Hotel occupancy – that’s the percentage of hotel rooms that are filled – was 69.3 percent in 2018 for downtown Cleveland and University Circle, according to STR, a data firm that tracks travel metrics. That’s up from 66.5 percent in 2017, and the highest since 2015, before the city added several new hotels in anticipation of the RNC. Occupancy in the six-county Greater Cleveland area increased, as well, to 62.5 percent, up from 59.7 percent in 2017, according to STR https://www.cleveland.com/business/2019/01/cleveland-hotel-occupancy-in-2018-rebounds-exceeds-republican-national-convention-year.html

^ Interesting data - thanks for sharing!

^That's amazing!

The link still works for me.

Our current pipeline should get us thru to 2022-2023, but we're going to need thousands of more units to meet demand over the next 10yrs. http://www.downtowncleveland.com/DCA/media/DCA_Media/2018-Housing-Demand-Analysis.pdf

^Yeah, but it's actually grown in usable space. The retail went from 46ksf to 75ksf, and the office component grew from 137k to 150k. The number of units and parking spaces will remain the same.

Market Plaza shopping center in Ohio City sells for $5.85 million CLEVELAND, Ohio -- After years of talks about a potential makeover of the Market Plaza site in Cleveland’s Ohio City neighborhood, the high-profile corner at West 25th Street and Lorain Avenue changed hands this week in a $5.85 million deal. An affiliate of Harbor Bay Real Estate Advisors, a Chicago-area developer, purchased the shopping center on Tuesday, according to public records. The company plans to raze the retail plaza, which sits across from the West Side Market, and to replace it with a pair of much larger buildings. Site plans show offices, apartments, new retail space and garage parking, with nearly an acre of green space facing the market. https://www.cleveland.com/business/2019/01/market-plaza-shopping-center-in-ohio-city-sells-for-585-million.html
