if more people are living in downtown, then you'll see more people useing the malls, public square, settlers. And, lets not forget that Canal Basin Park is quietly in the works (although its still a few years away).

St. Ignatius in Cleveland was founded in 1886. I believe that the current building was built around 1890. www.ignatius.edu

If you didnt' realize who the Browns were playing, then you didn't deserve to go to the game! ;)

Is the W.117th project involved in this?

I've heard that Eaton is going into the Flats East Bank.

Well, I doubt that the theater will be open in a year. Construction projects neve finish on time. From everything I hear, its a go.

I moved to Memphis and Nashville for 5 years. Things I like and miss about the south: Nothing! I'm very glad to be back home.

I agree. I read it as if there still could be many sites. It has to go downtown. I'm assuming that medical mart is just using the midtown and UC sites as leverage to get the best deal them MM downtown.

Crains says that they are down to three locations: Med mart field narrowed to 3 areas Merchandise Mart Properties Inc. Cuyahoga County By JAY MILLER 1:40 pm, December 6, 2007 Planners for a new convention center and medical merchandise mart are moving close to a site decision, but they may not make their choice by a self-imposed year-end deadline. Mark Falanga, senior vice president of Merchandise Mart Properties Inc., and Fred Nance, the negotiator for the Cuyahoga County commissioners, said at a press conference today that they have not yet even decided what part of town to put the meeting complex. Mr. Falanga ticked off three areas in still in contention, narrowed from 13 sites initially considered. They are a downtown location; the Midtown neighborhood, east of downtown; and an area near the city’s so-called “medical infrastructure,” which encompasses the Cleveland Clinic and University Hospitals of Cleveland, which are east of Midtown and into University Circle. more at: http://www.crainscleveland.com/

It confuses me as well. Ignatius has their own security that is always present. When I went to Ignatius, you never heard about anything other than the occassional car getting broken into. I think that the area of Lorain to the immediate west of Ignatius can get sketchy at times.

I've found that when sifting through the brevity reports, a lot of crimes that happen elsewhere get reported at MetroHealth. Like the guys that get stabbed/shot/clubbed by "someone I've never before at a place I can't remember." Ok, then that's why Lutheran shows so many crimes.

Bang and Clatter is also going to design review at the city this week.

KJP, I don't even remember this thread. Now that I skim over it, I think that you could turn this into a book. Seriously. The information is fascinating.

^my positive impressions of her come from non-PD sources.

I thought that she was highly-regarded. Hmm, maybe I'm wrong.

Pope, I don't like what your Tigers are doing. They are improving too much.

The moderators will probably move this topic over to the relocation forum once they see it. You're answers will lead to some more questions. So far, Ohio City, Shaker Square, Coventry, Little Italy,Cedar-Fairmount, Cedar-Lee, downtown are the areas that come to mind. Maybe Tremont, maybe Lakewood. Are you taking a job in Cleveland or just here for the summer? Your price range (for a one bedroom) will provide you with a lot of options. Its tough to find $1000 per month one bedroom units in this market (meaning..that most of the one bed rooms will not cost that much). Where will you be working?

TB1000, Welcome to UrbanOhio and welcome to Cleveland! If you go to this page http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php?board=20.0 and do a search on 'moving to cleveland', you'll probably be able to find a number of threads with similar questions. How do you define "amenities"? clubs or corner pubs? clothing stores or grocery stores? What are you looking to spend on rent? From where are you moving? Will you be working somewhere or going to school? There are a nice amount of urban neighborhoods in Cleveland, but they all have their own unique flavor. Let us know the answers to the above questions and we'll help you out.

Oh, I like the sounds of this thread.

What are some modest materials that would be a substitute for vinyl siding? (and I'm not being facetious).

What a ridiculous study. I believe we are poor. I believe that we have a lot of crime. But we do have walkable neighborhoods.

^^It was never a project. The Army Corps of Engineers had to dump the dredgings somewhere, so they decided to put it there. Its not like they dredged the river just so they could add some acreage to the shoreline.

Mayday, they don't have a website yet. I asked a few weeks ago and the owner said that they are working on it.

Um, guys, the beach and all that stuff is not going to happen. The one simple multipurpose trail is the only thing that is being planned. The idea is to keep it natural.

I don't think that we got robbed. Kellen's momentum would have taken him out of bounce even if the defenders were not there. The Browns were clearly the more talented team yesterday, but they just made so many stupid mistakes. We deserved to lose that one.
