No Bedrock already exists. It might affect them though

Yep that was also Ronayne’s question hahahah

Ronayne covered that pretty extensively in his press conference. He urged the state to pass it through the budget offices

I can’t believe there will be no public input on this. How is that even possible? We had a decade of meetings to discuss the inner belt and that was basically a road project. @KJP maybe I missed it, but who will own the stadium?

Link 59, Church Square Commons, townhomes at East 73rd

Dealer Tire HQ, Foundry Lofts, Tru Hotel, UH Children’s Hospital, Cleveland Foundation HQ, Midtown Collaboration Center (one post above your post), Baker Electric, I mean this is the Midtown thread it’s literally a rundown of all new development between UC and Downtown

On what planet is it more efficient to move central government operations away from the central government? Republicans want the government to be less effective so they can continue to chop it into a million useless pieces.

I have some bad news

Not sure if you’re making a pun but that phrase made me feel a little ill

Albatross could refer to about 12 different things

“Picked up the slack” is an interesting way to put it lol.

Yeah a coupla real gross cases he settled.

A nice guy, outside of the sexual assault cases

Strus, Okoro, Wade, and Levert were all out. The Cavs started SAM MERRILL at SF

Can’t pick and choose what laws to enforce. Some would say “executing” the laws enacted by the legislative branch is one of the main duties of the “executive“ branch.

Anything could happen! Maybe it’s particularly icy on the sidewalk one morning when Jimmy and Dee are due in court…I’m just saying it’s possible!

They haven’t had consecutive winning seasons in 35 years.

Nobody is gonna new build a 900 sf shack

The public is investing a lot of money info this project we should have plenty of input and we should be getting a better return. Actually seems insane to me that this project is getting so much on top of the standard tax abatement. “The city and the Cleveland-Cuyahoga County Port Authority have provided a tax-increment financing package including $84 million worth of bonds. Cuyahoga County also has authorized a $2 million loan to the project.”

I don’t see how reducing the pet population helps

I don’t think the feedback from Landmarks, etc. pushed the timeline back. Inability to get financing organized, including going for and missing a TMUD, has way more to do with the ultimate ineffectiveness of this particular development team.

Above average for a prison or dormitories for a junior college in rural Nebraska

Cities don’t build housing. They can incentivize and regulate but we live in a capitalist system and everything is determined by profit. Crazy to blame the city of Cleveland for something that happened in literally every single industrial city in the Midwest. There are myriad factors that drive population loss, and a city pulling itself up by its bootstraps is about number 432 on the list. To steer this back to the subject development, this is the kind of thing that can be built currently, at this location, at a profit. And I think that’s kind of a bummer when we were going to get market rate housing with an anchor grocery.

You said it better than I did. But I believe the answer is simply that developers can make money more easily at the moment by throwing up a LIHTC project. So in a fringe area like this, despite the seeming momentum with other market rate projects, we’ll get more concentrated lower income housing because the developer can make money right now. And obviously we need a lot more affordable housing construction, but I wish we could do it in a better way. We should incentivize developers to include affordable units in market rate projects. Instead, on this project at least, we’ll get a value engineered box that provides little benefit except to the developer.
