  1. I'm really taken off guard by this. Who the hell does Eaton think they are to request an office campus in downtown?!?
  2. ^I have only been to Cleveland's Rock Bottom once (and it was a at least 7 years ago). Back then, they had several beers that had Cleveland-themed names. Do they brew the same beers in each city and then give them different names? I find it hard to believe that each location would have their own recipes.
  3. ^^^I saw that as well this week. Hopefully that block will be blown up (except for the church) and be redeveloped. I will miss the journey through the Giant Eagles' innards to get to the bathroom. That is an interesting basement.
  4. oh, that's just CTownsFinest216 being CTownsFinest216.

    Why?? Because the project would need significant public subsidy. Cleveland/Cuyahoga County is more focused on projects that would provide much more bang for your buck (Medical Mart/CC) Notice how the developers will only do this project if there is a huge retail portion involved. They know that they could not pull it off if they tried to do it in downtown Cleveland (for many obvious reasons).
  6. Good news. Hopefully this will push the May Co. building's owners to redevelop it.

  8. ^call centers seem to be in suburban locations (generally speaking). I agree. I doubt that they would come downtown.

    hey, i'm trying to repopulate the city!! (baby #2 was due yesterday). I think you should be a little more tolerant with the city residents. Feel free to unleash your rage on all the sick Westlake parents, but cut us urbanites some slack. Deal? ;)

    hey, cut us breeders some slack. One of the most annoying thing about having kids is when you have to take a vacation because he/she is sick.
  11. That would be the ultimate kick in the gut: A Cleveland-linked company steals Lebron from Cleveland and puts him in NYC.

    but but but the Richfield Coliseum was placed so well that it is still thriving 35 years later!! ;)

    interesting note: During their rookie years, Gooden was traded for Mike Miller.
  14. The setbacks on Carnegie aren't too significant. The setbacks on 89th--well, I assume that you need a setback so that drivers are able to see whether or not there are any pedestrians on the sidewalk, etc when they exit the garage. I do wonder about the large amount of land to the immediate north of the garage. What is that for?

  16. ^I don't remember anything about hot Russian strippers with expiring visas, but that would be pretty cool if there were something like that ;)

    ^I don't want to be left behind when it comes to biotech and downtown housing. I can stand to be left behind when it comes to the MLS.
  18. Are we really having this conversation?? Its not about how hot they are. Its not about leverage for divorces. Its about not creating a loophole where more people could gain entry to the US. I'm not saying that I agree with the policy, but that's how it is.
  19. ^when visas are involved, it gets complicated.
  20. I had a few friends who married Peruvians and they were put through a gauntlet in order to get the OK to get married.
  21. I thought that Bostwick did the Law building?
  22. ^it would be nice to see a graphic to understand what they are conceiving for this "plaza". Sure sounds like they want one thing but are asking for another.
