I'm confused. Public access to the loop or access to the waterfront?

math, I disagree that you'll find cheaper and better housing in other cities.

For what it is worth, I know two guys in the Whiskey Island volleyball leagues and they are straight. :)

^Design review is not comprehensive and is sometimes elusive. When you have a large building, some of the smaller details don't always get noticed. Then there are instances like the new townhomes across the street from my house. Design review approved a certain style of brick. Some guy who orders the materials for the developer punched in the wrong number for the brick order. The bricklayers didn't give a second thought to it and simply put up the brick that was dropped off by the supplier. I called landmarks and told them that the bricks that were being put up were not the bricks that were approved. A meeting ensued. The developer had to apply a stain to the bricks so that the color would match the approved design (the staining process is pretty cool and very effective, yet expensive).

Comparing the growth of the 200 years ago to current day sprawl is an apples to watermelons comparison.

oh, but that glass kills me. That stuff looks so suburban cheap to me. McMansions wouldn't even have those types of doors.

I love Home Depot off-the-shelf!! ;)

i've heard from three different and well-connected people in the past week that April 22 is the day for the announcement.

MTS, Who had a hub in Reno?

I'd love to see the GCIC on Euclid to the east of the campus (or in front of the Cole Eye Center). I'd love to see this CSI thing just to the immediate east of E.55.

^Global Cardiovascular Innovation Center

not sure where to put this, so I'll give it its own thread. http://www.cleveland.com/printer/printer.ssf?/base/living-0/1208334642154400.xml&coll=2 Journey to the center Growing number of residents making the move downtown, with more housing units coming Thursday, April 17, 2008 Melissa Hebert and Brenda Junkin Plain Dealer Reporters Downtown Cleveland was magic when Jea nette and Ed Shemo were kids. For the over-40 crowd, it was where department stores made you dizzy with their wares and holiday window displays. It was where you'd go to see Mr. Jingeling. It was where Dad took Mom out to dinner for their anniversary. It was where the city came together to work, play and shop.

^^By the way, that place looked like a very depressing place to work.

Or maybe they went under. CDCs don't have guaranteed funding sources.

maybe I should start a new thread.. Anyone think that we should have a "rookie of the year" poll? I'd vote for McCleveland.

Historic Power Center District?? Sounds like a lot of areas within Phoenix will be competing for that moniker. The future-day arts-district.

Well you came on one of the ugliest weekends (weather-wise). Since Sunday night, the we've had blue skies and the temperatures have been climbing into the low 70s. Thank god spring is here. Glad you had a good time. In what city is your apartment?

I hope that you are correct. Don't forget that K & D are the largest landlord in the region. They own a lot of suburban apartment complexes. Only a small portion of their portfolio has to do with condos. With the mortgage crisis, apartments are doing very well at the moment. I think that is what is allowing them to take on projects of this size.

I've always heard that a woman can go topless at Edgewater Park beach in Cleveland.

I wonder if they'll require presales before starting construction. I'm glad to hear that the prices are more moderate. I thought that we first heard 400k figures for the price points. 235 is not bad at all considering the tax abatement.

that's what I was thinking. I wonder if Hush has been hushed.

^^yes, I LOVE Hampton Inns!!!! ;)

There was an interesting story earlier this year in the PD about some guy and how he did up his Erie Building loft. Nice place.

^I'd rather we focus our investment in other areas at this time.

excuse my ignorance--where is E-Prep coming from and how many employees does it have? Are these the folks from Erie?
