  1. But developers probably wouldn't make a dime and it would be much more difficult to attract retailers.
  2. Let's get some grant money from the Cleveland Foundation and get this project rolling!
  3. ^well, we'd have a lot more housing starts if Zaremba and Wolstein would put some shovels in the dirt.
  4. Hey, whatever happened to the new office building that was supposed to go up next to the Agora? There's been no movement at all at the site.
  5. ^I got my sister-in-law from Nashville to move to Ohio City! Hey, and I have fine one year-old boy that I am raising to be a fine citizen of Cleveland.

    If the Cavs don't take it, then its gotta be the Bulls. Without Wallace, Detroit is a lot weaker (according to the media). :wink: Actually, I think that the media is making too much of the Bulls acquisition of Wallace. Sure I think that the Bulls will be better and that the Pistons will be worse, but no way are the Bulls a championship contender as many sportswriters seemed to suggest this offseason.
  8. Just because you're 'public school from birth' doesn't make them god's gift to education. That's because we have catholic schools for those who want god's gift to education. As long as we're getting unrealistic, do that, raise tuition a few thousand, make residency manditory for 2 years, lower acceptance rates, change it to University of Cleveland and you've got yourself the perfect school ;) Good idea.
  9. That paint was absolutely horrible. Thank god they are cleaning it off. Why didn't they do this years ago?? Its going to make the entire place much more enticing.
  10. 3 to 5 more? Well, I think that would be tough to get within the next month. Maybe they've got a few in the pipeline.
  11. i also agree that we've got some very decent public school programs in this state. Out of state, many people think that Miami is a private school. Also, OSU is very well-respected. We're a little too hard on ourselves in Ohio. We're not the best, but I think our state public university systerm definitely above average for the US. That said, I do think that we overbuilt. Call me biased, but Kent St. and Cleveland St. should be one mega-university in downtown Cleveland.
  12. um, where do you see me painting them in such a horrible light? They only thing that I said was the stereotype exists that the large publics can have a lax academic environment. In the same paragraph, I noted that they also have some very very strong graduate programs. This isn't about the public school inferiority complex, is it? ;)

    ^well, that makes the Pistons a fifth seed at best.

  15. I doubt that its anything major, but there is some movement in an empty storefront on Euclid in Playhouse Square. Its the space between the United Way building and the old spot where Oberlin did an art installation. There were a few construction workers, some wood and some blue prints (that I couldn't read).
  16. I think that you are over-simplifying this discussion. C'mon, there are many valid reasons to go to other universities or colleges.
  17. Best experience? That's highly subjective, but I would think that it would be cool to go to such a large university with a great football program. Secondly, while OSU has some very reputable graduate programs, is the undergraduate experience very difficult? I always assumed that it would be a pretty lax academic environment (large state schools often are branded with such stereotypes). Bang for your buck? How much does Miami cost?
  18. hey, any little bit helps.. $700,000 allotted to Historical Society By SHANNON MORTLAND 6:00 am, August 21, 2006 The Western Reserve Historical Society will receive $700,000 from the Ohio Cultural Facilities Commission to upgrade its heating, ventilation and air conditioning system in the library and Halle Collection wings. The commission previously provided $300,000 to the society to update its infrastructure in the Crawford Auto-Aviation Museum and in its central annex area.
  19. Ohio also has 3 top 50 liberal arts schools: 22. Oberlin 32. Kenyon 48. Denison

    Who is the major league affiliate of the Dayton Dragons?
  21. Ronn Richard certainly has CF doing some interesting things lately. I would love to get that manufacturer to set up shop here (its all about the industry clusters!!)

  23. With the recent pace of construction, I'd say that December is very reasonable.
