  1. You are right. I think one of the accounting firms is also moving out of that building. Sawyer Point is kinda an interesting building. Location isn't bad, but the interior columns always lessened usable space vs rentable space.
  2. Smart, cater to your customers.
  3. IUPUI has, General Housing Information Ball Residence Hall University Tower Townhomes Riverwalk Apartments Supplemental Housing at Park Place Is Stadium Lofts and Stadium Flats geared for students with rents in the $600-$1,200 range? Have you ever wanted to live near downtown without the high costs of rent? How about living in a baseball stadium? Now residents have a chance to do both, thanks to the new Stadium Lofts apartments located on West 16th Street, not far from the campuses of IUPUI and Wishard Hospital. http://www.indianapolisrecorder.com/news/article_9cb06078-81f1-11e2-b89f-001a4bcf887a.html There are still large cheap residential areas near Downtown. You can pick up a house for next to nothing and restore it. New construction, yeah that is going to be more expensive usually.
  4. why would anyone in OTR be unhappy if kroger built at the banks, when they could just use the street car to get grocerys? Some of those GE people will probably living in OTR, lol. IMHO Kroger stays put in OTR, renovates, or opens a new store there.
  5. And once you get outside of the map benchmarks I mentioned for Indy it is a ring of 3 miles of poor and low income dweller, unlike Cincy which has a mix of low up to high income in Newport, Covington, Mt. Adams, E. Walnut, to draw from. My guess is that Indy has more professionals living in and around downtown than 10 years ago of course , but my guess is more and more of the IUPUI students are not commuters anymore. There is a waiting list for campus housing and I am sure those students are populating the complexes to the east of Campus. That 47,000 number seemed high to me also.
  6. Looking at maps. If you take downtown Indy, I65 to the North, White River to the West, I 70 to the East and South, that is a comparable land mass from from OTR to NKY, 75 to the west and 71 to the East. Indy has 1 grocery store in that footprint, Cincinnati has 4/5 in our footprint.
  7. Downtown indy is/was much different than Downtown Cincy. Prior to the Indy store opening up the next closest Marsh's are 6 plus miles away. We have the Marketplace Kroger just across the river, a big Party Source, Save alot in Bellvue, another Kroger in Bellvue/Newport, really close to Downtown. I go equally to the Marketplace Kroger and the Covington Kroger (probably a little bigger than OTR).

    yeah, if you don't mind getting the 3rd degree.... :-) So in other words avoid the serious questions.

    Do you own a home? Can you sell and not be underwater or take a big hit. Married with kids, how old are they? Difficult to uproot kids in high school. Where do you currently live? The new job what part of Cincy is it located? I think Greater Cincy is a great place to live.
  10. This Hotel is about ready to open??? yes. Website allows to book rooms in a couple of weeks. http://www.marriott.com/reservation/rateListMenu.mi
  11. That Towne development is in a good location, rents are reasonable. Monmouth St. looks pretty good these days and Newport is sinking another $900,000 into street or sidewalk improvements somewhere off of Monmouth.
  12. I live in Covington (in a van down by the river) right by the Roebling bridge and a vacant retail site, at the foot of the bridge, is getting a deli/grocery store. Good size store, maybe 4,000 sq. ft. nice. There is a Kroger in covington, but having this 100 feet from where is live is nice.
  13. I use this: http://www.nancyboy.com/viewcategories.asp You can get along in the world if you're smart. I didn't see any detergent. Situation critical. Looks like 2525 West End in Nashville. Difficult to picture the final product based on the photos we have now.
  14. Were are an affordable midwest or mid atlantic city, not Manhattan or Hong Kong.
  15. Cadillac Ranch/El Coyote space location was really good, prior to the opening of the banks. The people who hang out down there used to go to Cadillac Ranch.
  16. Yea, it does seem a little bit like this whole thing was orchestrated to keep a grocery store OUT of this development. Kroger does seem to be interested, at least somewhat, in a downtown Cincinnati grocery store. Could this whole debacle be on Kroger's behalf? http://www.wcpo.com/money/local-business-news/kroger-co-kr-harris-teeter-acquisition-could-lead-to-new-downtown-cincinnati-store No, the developer is the party that would want the grocery store requirement lifted. (not the city or Kroger).
  17. All politics are corrupt, but the developer is free to lease space to a grocery operator at this development if they want to.

    After having a tech guy take over my laptop running 10 different malware rookit things ........no success, i figure it out myself. I uninstalled avg and comodo firewall, went to msconfig.exe, and on normal start noticed under services there was still a comodo thing selected. I unselected it and firefox/explorer are working now. I had shut down the above but not uninstalled, and even with that a comodo thing was still there at normal boot.
  19. Same deal with a couple of Rivercenter Tenants that moved back downtown recently.
  20. Hopefully 3cdc will get a deal worked out. If the developer thinks a grocery store on the first floor is market worthy hopefully they do that.

    Good to go there. I back it up weekly.

    Laptop was acting up today, could not access anything, cursor was just circling around. I did a clean boot from safe mode with networking and then that worked so I can access files and programs. However I can't access the internet via Chrome, IE, and a couple of times Firefox loaded, but can't get to any other webpages. In safe mode with networking Firefox, IE, Chrome all work fine. Any thoughts? Thanks
  24. The Hotel and Apartment building would be good for the Levee and Newport. Where I live on the River in Covington I can tell you that The Marriott and DoubleTree Suites is really busy on Reds weekends in Covington. All of the parking here fills up and everyone walks over Roebling to the Stadium. The Southbank Shuttle was a live saver when it was cold and I wanted to hit Downtown.
