  1. Isn't this Delaware race track supposed to be very high end? Like country club-level initiation fees and dues? Highly doubt it will be obnoxious or a property value killer.
  2. Directly across Berlin Station Road from Berlin HS.
  3. They're also building a new hospital in Dublin.
  4. Well they'd be wrong. The lots will average ~13,000 square feet i.e. roughly a quarter acre.
  5. Updating that I am working on this. I'm at a point where I'm 54 people over the Pittsburgh population. So I need to find what block(s) I've incorrectly added. Hope to find time this weekend.

  7. You can get tabulation block reports for every county in the US. It'll give you population, housing units, area of land and of water (in square meters), and geographic coordinate data. I then import these into Excel, and manually add or delete blocks to generate the Urban Areas. That's where it can get time consuming. Yes, there are thousands of blocks: Cincinnati: 18,853 Cleveland: 20,281 Columbus: 21,854
  8. No but I can get into it later. Hopefully it's easier than Cincinnati. Columbus and Cleveland were easy to do, but Cincinnati took me awhile.
  9. If anything weighted density should help with topography issues. Hillsides with zero or little population don't have a significant impact when measured this way.
  10. Weighted density all the way to the block level alleviates those geographic issues. So does using the Urban Area definition of built environment.

  12. Newark is its own Urban Area of 81,223. Johnstown has its own of 5,449. Whether they get added isn't just about proximity, but commuting patterns. It's why Middletown isn't a part of Cincinnati or Dayton's UA despite physically touching both. Same with Elyria and Akron with Cleveland. I'd say with all the economic development happening in far eastern New Albany that commuting patterns will favor adding these two to Columbus as long as development occurs between them. So that alone would add 86,672 plus any growth in those two. However, it would hurt the density a fair bit.
  13. If it goes to the Downtown Commission I'd say it's downtown...
  14. https://csids.wpenginepowered.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/2022-State-of-Downtown.pdf The 2022 State of Downtown is out. Lots of info. Something I noticed is that they use census tract estimates to tally our downtown population. The problem being it leaves out likely thousands: The original North Bank Condo building The Reach on Goodale 600 Goodale Buggyworks In the future it won't include: Astor Park The Peninsula Seems to me they should go down to the block level for more accurate measures.
  15. What a weird comment. You don't have a report with a local company HQ'd just outside your district? As I said upthread the transmission lines are due to be buried and the two new transition towers are due to be built starting in June. So maybe they'll get started by this summer.
  16. Not just adjacent. If I remember the floorplans correctly, you'll be able to walk from inside the third floor of the school into the press box, and from the first floor into the locker rooms. That's pretty cool to me. I'm a fan of the uber compact school and/or athletic facilities. Like Cincinnati's vs Ohio State's. Although, Ohio State is starting to pack more in to the athletics district.
  17. https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3119965 This is the calculation I used. Edit. I went all the way down to the block level, not just tract.
  18. Bizjournals couldn't snag a picture that's newer than four years old?...
  19. Looks like Pizzuti is right. The owner rents out small properties under Maloof Insurance. So they've probably brought in Pizzuti to run the development. Hopefully they do something with their dreadful looking properties on the south side of 5th on either side of... Fifth!
  20. That site comes nowhere near what Trader Joe's looks for in a site. Perhaps Edwards should have actually used the site he was basically given as it should have been used. Then maybe he could have gotten an urban grocery; but still not a Trader Joe's.
