Amazing that Norton was able to buy that corner lot at 1600 Elm for only $25,000, less than four years ago.

Nice choice of black & white for the shots. Thanks!

Phenomenal composition!

Born and raised in small-town Michigan, spent the last five years in the urban core of Cincinnati.

Great set; nice looking historic neighborhood and a fabulous mid-century Macy's.

Uncle Woody's is desperately in need of interior remodeling, especially the back room. I imagine the opening of Mac's on McMillan hurt business because it is larger and looks cleaner. I think a new owner could be successful at the Woody's location if the place looked a bit more respectable inside.

I forgot that I had commented in this thread. My wife and I bought one of the units in the Cooper and have been in about six months. We had a few workmanship issues with the renovation, but overall we are very pleased. I believe 38 of the 40 above-ground units have been sold, and the developer carved out 2 "garden" level units in the lower level that are currently on the market.

Steubenville has a pretty good showing. That first and third buildings would hold their own in any of the 3 C's.

My wife and I saw Iron Man over the weekend. She enjoyed it, and she is not inclined to enjoy comic books or science fiction. I thought it was great, not corny, and the humor was well-placed.

Enzo's has always appeared to do a brisk lunch business the half dozen or so times I've been there. The food (sandwiches and salads) is excellent and the space is nice and modern. I hope they reopen soon.

I'm in.

I'm assuming your husband won't need to wear the suit regularly, or he'd already know where to buy them. Jos. A. Bank is a great place to start, Brooks Brothers is probably going to be a bit too much to justify for a suit that will be worn only on occasion, in my opinion. You should look at Macy's too.

Does that sign seriously say "Urban Renewal"? Sad...

I could be wrong, but I'm fairly certain that Mt. Adams was never a separate municipal entity.

We stopped in for a beer at the newly reopened Grammer's tonight. The historic interior is beautiful but has been thoroughly cleaned and refreshed. There were 50 or more patrons, not bad for 8:30 with no food except pretzels and sausages. The emphasis was clearly on beers, with a well-edited selection favoring seasonal bock beers. Overall the atmosphere was great and I will definitely be returning.
