As for Akron's, I'm not very familiar with those, so I can't speak to that. Regarding Cleveland's, yes, thanks for pointing the NHLINK ones out, I forgot about them! Published in 2003, they're a bit outdated and don't include several neighborhoods that currently exist (Little Italy, Slavic Village). Now's a good time to review and update those. :)

Hi, Neighborhood boundaries in Cleveland are fluid, subjective, and inspire many debates (especially among us :wink2:) - especially with the lack of an current designated neighborhood boundaries from the city. Here's your chance to say where your neighborhood is and view what others have shared through an online mapping app that I've made: http://skorasaur.us/nh You're encouraged to map (that is draw) the neighborhood where you live but others that you may not live in but may spend a lot of time in or feel strongly about. No neighborhood or city boundaries are present on the map; to remove biases and to encourage boundaries across city lines. With projects like http://openstreetmap.org and improved technology and software, mapping is not only a noun, but it is being used as a verb - creating and modifying what is (or isn't) on a map - the canvas representing a space. BTW, the City of Akron contacted me, loved the idea, and is encouraging residents to participate as a part of their review (or a creation) of their neighborhood boundaries.

The waiting for the buses is not the concern; it's the buses heading Eastbound have three extra traffic lights (1 in front of Terminal Tower - installed within the past 3 months, 1 at Euclid Ave and Ontario, and 1 at Euclid and East Roadway/Jesse Owens Way (road that runs north/south on the eastern side of the Square)) that the buses would miss if they went directly through Superior. Westbound only hits one extra traffic light (Ontario and North Roadway/Rockwell) but also hits 2 additional stop signs. In both directions, the buses are also making an additional left-hand turn.

Is this a city or state law? The law certainly has very good intentions. How does it work for companies like platform which is opening a bar in Columbus? Is platform brewing in Columbus as well? I assume this law requires brewing at both places if they have the same owner and more than one mile apart from each other. (feel free to move this to the beer thread that Murray Hill linked above)

1and1 is the host for a small non profit whose website I maintain as a volunteer. I'm not a fan of it, to me as a power user, their interface is a bit confusing. Also, they've been a pain to transfer the contact information of the domain owner. At work, I've used bluehost. They also offer WordPress installations and it's all right (no idea on the costs for both of these). In both of these hosts, if you use WordPress, you'll need to use your back up plug-in (via WordPress) instead of whatever they have built in by default, to automate your backups (which you should do). On mobile at the moment, so I don't remember the plug-in used for backups on WordPress. Personally, I use gandi.net for my domain name and pair.com as my website (I use jekyll for my website, which is a pain in the arse and would not recommend it) for the past year or so. Excellent service in both although pair.Com isn't the cheapest. I've heard good things about squarespace for a more turnkey solution (that had pre-designed templates) as well as wix

They're still used often (a couple times a week at least, I'd imagine) by athletic teams and after school programs for neighborhood kids. In the summer, they have summer camps. As an alum who wouldn't mind seeing them sell some of that (or the parking lots), I don't see them getting rid of them unless they start to really hurt financially and a developer makes an offer that they can't refuse (likely not happening). If they ever wish to add buildings (Which I personally doubt, what else is there to add, frankly), this land is sitting there for them (and being used productively in their eyes), they know they wouldn't be able to expand north or east, and land values in the immediate area will not decrease anytime soon. IIRC, track and field (north of Lorain) is open to the public when it's not in use although that's likely a very limited window of irregular hours...

Agreed, Santiago wasn't a saint from some accounts and I wouldn't be surprised if he wasn't completely absolved here.

KJP, on the forums, wrote on it - http://blog.cleveland.com/thesun/2007/07/zannonis_is_moving_west.html From the article, taking advantage of a deal offered by North Ridgeville (tax abatements) in a new facility and poor effort from Santiago. There's a lot more to this than first look: check out parcel 007-20-019 on the auditor's website, northeast corner of the Fulton and Clark. Several of the parcels surrounding it have been consolidated to 007-20-019. According to the auditor's website - http://fiscalofficer.cuyahogacounty.us/AuditorApps/real-property/REPI/default.asp - , parcel 007-20-019 wasn't transferred over until 2010. From 2007 until 2010, taxes weren't paid on the property (still owned by Zannoni) and it apparently went to a sherrif's sale and bought by Serrat Enterprises. Oh, and in 2003, Zannoni took a $1.3 million mortgage on the property. I have zero sympathy for Zannoni. Moves out and decides not to pay the property tax on his building. Real smooth.

It will be a constantino's.

Visited on Saturday night, as with most public spaces, its success (and my opinion on it) will depend on its programming. Here are some pictures that I had taken, I should have increased the exposure on some of these before I uploaded them to mapillary (a google streetview competitor that's crowd-sourced). http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/QOp-WZUNx93tVGWj3PMfMQ/photo http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/_yGydPKiDHW8ZPDuVV9VhQ/photo http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/kXcTA_psVXxAW3Q4x3nclg/photo http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/OFNiEDnDMHZkXz0dAty--g/photo http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/mmAZHTEn0NI3MCr1doA60A/photo http://www.mapillary.com/map/im/VAHvRqiGEjQKzpxLUBDuEg/photo

Those buildings are all already being used, they're just businesses with minimal public interaction, in at lease one cases, apartments on the upper floor. One of the buildings is something for the cleveland museum of art, another stores the lolly the Trolley vehicles and their office.

Superior Avenue or Superior Road? I don't recall apartments on the Avenue side of Euclid. Superior Rd, my mistake. The apartments were to the right of the plaza when coming from the Cleveland side of Superior. Sent from my SM-N920T using Tapatalk Iirc, I thought more apartments were coming in there

I thought that was the purpose of the Opportunity Corridor? Or before that, Emerald Parkway off Grayton by the airport? Or before that, Hinckley Industrial Parkway next to the Jennings Freeway? Or before that, Industrial Parkway off Puritas/West 150th? And don't forget Johnston Parkway and Shoreway Commerce Park either ;)

Having not seen the UK version, I did some quick googling and saw that season 1 and season 2 are extremely similar, but the US version widely diverges in season 3 and continues to be divergent.

Building has been a mobile phone/pager store in some capacity for nearly 20 years. I remember the old store had their slogan in large print, above the door: "no one else will sell you a beeper cheaper"

I was a little curious about the impact of Lakeview Cemetery and Forest Hills Park on the East Cleveland so I did some rough measurements and calculations... I made sure not to include the parts of both amenities that are located in Cleveland Hts. EC is 8.027 Square kilometers Lakeview is about 26 hectares, Forest Hills Park is 1.13 square KM. So in percentages; Lakeview is about 3% of East Cleveland and Forest Hills is 14%... edit, also did Nela Park, which is 33 HA.

Sounds like he wasn't your "average" Canadian eh? Courtside seats and killed in broad daylight in his Range Rover. There is much more to this story.... Bingo. Perhaps he was in hiding and inadvertently spotted by a past business associate.. ;)

Shamless (the US version); an excellent black comedy of a very poor & dysfunctional white family in the slums of present-day Chicago, featuring William H. Macy as the alcoholic father. Moving our way through season 5 right now. It's a shame that it's only available streaming on Showtime :/ Or you could rent it from your local library :)

I've used it in Pittsburgh; greensboro; toronto, and SF. All of them have been pleasant and what I've expected. I've made sure that the people I rent from aren't just landlords renting their place out, but people who actually live in part of the residence which gives me the sense that they're responsive (except for one, was a professor on sabbatical) to any questions and aren't necessarily crowding out other renters. For those unfamiliar, you can read a potential host's biography and reviews left by other guests before you place your $ down. That $125 isn't likely to deter the landlord from continuing if you're renting the place multiple times a month and getting hundreds or thousands in cash flow.

maybe this is already old news, but I see that you can book a room for tomorrow night (June 1st), $269/night is the lowest list price... http://www3.hilton.com/en/hotels/ohio/hilton-cleveland-downtown-CLEDOHH/index.html

*coughs* Cohassett, Grace, Clarence, Merl, Donald just to name a few.

Great first (or one of your first posts). And good eye, I lived in Old Brooklyn in 20 years and have looked at a lot of aerial imagery and never noticed that Archmere's planting strips and housing setbacks were so much larger relatively to other homes in the neighborhood, especially homes on adjacent blocks. Fulton Road, south of Memphis also has significant setbacks as well although its housing stock is relatively newer; If you look at this ages of Cleveland buildings map that I made - http://skorasaur.us/maps/clebuildings.html Homes on Fulton were in the 40s and 50s and immediately east of there are older homes. TPH2, any idea where Garfield Park was planned to be?

#72 is correct, I do too, I'd love to see others post them again too =)
