  1. Well aren't you just mr fancy pants!
  2. I did the original batch of 100 stickers awhile back. They were printed in OTR and are sold in OTR. It is really great to see them all over everybodys cars. I had a Cinti Bell guy working in my neighborhood come up to me a couple of months ago and BEG to find out where to get one. I gave him one, look for the friendly cinti bell guys van in your neighborhood soon. :-D
  3. Walking to Findlay Market would be over 16 blocks from the river (one way) AND you would have to carry your groceries back. And no I'm not going to take the bus with smelly people, I would rather walk and that's why I do since there is no Streetcar yet.
  4. For modern, the Europeans know how to build a parking garage. The parking garage on 4th is AWFUL.
  5. If you decide on OTR I will give you a free I (Heart) OTR sticker. :-D We all are helping OTR in some small way, whether we live, Eat, Shop or talk about this growing neighborhood!
  6. I agree with a previous statement by someone earlier. People are to lazy to walk and want to park right on the street in front of their building. If these people would stop eating Mcdonalds in the morning on their way to work they wouldn't feel sick and need a bathroom ASAP. There is plenty of parking downtown. Stay off the Mctriple sausage gravy & egg biscuits!
  7. I bet building something like this wouldn't cost much and it looks super modern to me.
  8. Nice Ideas, build this puppy close to my house!!
  9. Do It! You will have some ups and downs at first but thats half the fun. If you want complete sterile boredom move to a culdesac street in Mason or West Chester.
  10. 3cdc Showed the Ohio state game instead of the Bearcats game.. hahaha!
  11. I sure hope the banks don't turn out like that!! That is awful!
  12. When the Florist goes out of business in the near future, the enquirer is just going to have fun printing that "ANOTHER downtown business has closed". Ok, I am done on the floral store too. I Can't wait for Graeters to open. MMMMMM Black Raspberry Chip ice cream :-D
  13. OTR Kroger is awesome! I go there all the time. It's a very small store and has everything you need when it comes to normal groceries etc.
  14. 5th 3rd and a florist are a total waste of space at the square, unless 5th 3rd is open (tellers) till midnight for banking purposes. What else caan we screw up the sqaure with? A skeffingtons formal-ware? Glamour shots? Sunglass Hut?
  15. Soil samples were taken yesterday on corporation alley for the proposed single family. We lost another building last night right across the street from Rothenburg. Fire destoyed the building at Schiller and main.
  16. Florists are a waste of money and space. Grow your own roses in your backyard or flowers in a windowbox. Anybody need some? I give away flowers for free.
  17. . :lol: Oh man I want to stick a Burj Dubai in the center of that mother!
  18. I heard a funny idiot today. A real estate agent who lives in Pendleton told me why she doesn't want the streetcar. Answer...? "Downtown spend good money to get rid of overhead wires". She was totally against it because of an overhead wire!
  19. It might be better off to just keep Vine for now and as the student population declines in a few years the only students left will be enough to fill the Peaslee neighborhood center. :-D One thing is for sure my kids will never step foot as a student in a CPS School.
  20. Mike, If it came down to it I could care less If the school was built next to SCPA, just as long as no buildings are torn down.
  21. In case you haven't heard. Everyone invited and encouraged to participate.* Please share with everyone over 4’5”. --------------------------------------- THIS Thursday, Sept 27 4:00 pm Tour of RothenbergMeet at school, located at Main & McMicken CPS Admin is conducting tour and convening meeting.
  22. Too small. The vacant parking lots on sycamore would be a good alternative. and they wouldn't get much of a fight out of us locals either 8-)
  23. What a great marketing ploy! Ride the S.L.U.T! SEATTLE, Washington (AP) -- Officially, it's the South Lake Union Streetcar. But in the neighborhood where the new line runs, it's called the South Lake Union Trolley -- or, the SLUT. At Kapow! Coffee, a shop in the old Cascade neighborhood, 100 T-shirts bearing the words "Ride the SLUT" sold out in days, and another 100 are on order. "We're welcoming the SLUT into the neighborhood," said Jerry Johnson, 29, a part-time barista. Some claim -- incorrectly, according to representatives of Vulcan Inc., the company that is developing the area -- that South Lake Union Trolley was the original name and that it was changed when officials belatedly realized the acronym. Watch how popular S.L.U.T. T-shirts have become » The $50.5 million project should be completed with streetcars running in December. Underlying the lighthearted opposition, however, is resentment over changes in the old working-class neighborhood. "There was a meeting with representatives from the city several years ago," Johnson recalled. "They asked us, 'What we could do for you?' Most people raised their hands and said, 'Affordable housing,"' he said. "Then the people from the city huddled together -- 'whisper, whisper, whisper,' -- and they said, 'How about a trolley?"' Since then, Cascade has been ignored in Vulcan brochures that lump the neighborhood together with Denny Park and Denny Triangle under the term South Lake Union. With the streetcar, said Don Clifton, a Cascade resident, "We learned how fun it is to change the name of things"
  24. That proposal looks awful! I wouldn't reccomend anybody to live on that hillside, I lived at Summit View for 2 years and the stench from MSD was overpowering when the wind blows your direction. Sure it has an awesome view but unless you REALLY like views and watching/listening to trains..
  25. I hope your right Mike, I had a dream....... Rothenberg is sold and turned into condos 90K-$1.5 million, Washington Park school is torn down and added to Washingotn Park. Old Scpa is turned into condos. Mercer area that CPS owns and was going to destroy 22 historic buildings in OTR is sold lot by lot to developers.. Vine st Roth is renovated. Remember when this chick that trashed OTR? When asked about the historic buildings (Mercer site) her response was... Frances Newell, CPS Board President "I have to honestly say I don't have any concern about historic buildings"
