Mayfield: Progressive Planning Expansion
These are call center jobs. I doubt there's many people at the corporate offices who would move into those positions.

Cleveland: Downtown: Mall Development and News
Here's the reality: -there is not enough money in the budget to do anything significant with the Malls in the convention center budget. The contract with MMPI states that the Malls must be similar in nature to the current design. This has been know for a long time. -the landscape architecture firm is developing a Plan B. It is basically a "if you had a lot more money, you could do this with the Malls" -the Group Plan Commission is figuring out how to come up with the money to fund Plan B (as well as Public Square, land bridges to the lake, etc) This sounds like a non-story by the PD.

World's most beautiful college campus is in Ohio (per some major publisher)
Kenyon College!!!! (my alma mater) When Forbes sees it my way, I tend to agree with them! ;) http://realestate.yahoo.com/promo/the-worlds-most-beautiful-college-campuses.html World's 5 Most Beautiful College Campuses 1. Kenyon College Gambier, Ohio Mike Evans, a principal at Norfolk, Va., design firm Hanbury Evans Wright Vlattas + Company, says to be beautiful a campus must have a "signature campus space as a carrier of the campus brand." At Kenyon College, that space is "Middle Path," a 10-foot-wide footpath that serves as the Gothic hilltop campus' central artery. More than just a trail, it's a village green for the tight-knit campus community. Sergei Lobanov-Rostovsky, who teaches 17th-century poetry at Kenyon, says the college, both isolated and pastoral, is "a small place to think big thoughts."

Another Dumb-a$$ List / Ranking of Cities
It's not that I think they are biased, I think that they simply do not understand the urban and aesthetic dynamic that exists in other cities. We have a very diverse urban nation. When my wife's community college-educated cousin who works at a local mall from Austin, TX is perplexed and confused as to why we don't live in her city, I sigh as I realize it will take much more than a casual conversation to get her to understand the basic differences (economic, urban planning, architectural, etc) that separate realities and aesthetic differences between her post-industrial skin-deep collegiate faux urban-chick reality and our complex and diverse urban reality.

Another Dumb-a$$ List / Ranking of Cities
^the authors should have considered that cities with large A-A populations also: -were cities that grew during the industrial hey-days of the early 20th century -that this sort of development lead to many inner city brownfields that are difficult to re-purpose and create deadzones near the urban core -that the sons and the daughters of many of the workers who could find good employment are not able to similar jobs as their parents were able to find -many of those workers were left behind as the economy changed and their skill set was not able to adapt to the global economic changes -the resulting underemployed manufacturing class is a huge economic burden on the cities that benefited from prior generations. the cities that did not experience this 1920s growth are able to economically advance while the rustbelt cities try to move forward with 50lb economic weights in their pockets

Another Dumb-a$$ List / Ranking of Cities
That's the problem with having a bi-cameral state government that gives places like southeast and rural Ohio much greater representation than it per-capita deserves.

Legacy Village and Steelyard Commons are both owned by the same company. Legacy is just breaking even and Steelyard is making its owner rich.

Cleveland: Downtown: Euclid & 9th Tower / Schofield Building Redevelopment
The construction of the convention center and the casino is creating an environment where lenders are more willing to provide loans for hotels (schofield, FEB). The aquarium is a completely different animal in that it is being led by a small group of people with no financial legitimacy.

NEO Colleges and Universities.. Where do the students of NEO Flock to?
As an Ignatius grad, I've been able to follow the college trends of its grads over the past 20 years. As OSU has improved academically, a lot more Ignatius kids are attending OSU. My senior year (1992), we had almost 40 kids going to Miami (OH). That number has greatly changed. Miami has suffered while OSU has benefited. Otherwise, it seems like the same amount of kids are heading off to the Ivies, littlie Ivies, etc.

Cleveland: Little Italy: Development and News
I don't think it means anything for Mayfield Lofts. It is almost impossible to get financing for new construction condos right now. With all the is going on in University Circle right now, there will be a lot of demand for new housing in the coming years.
