  1. also, regarding parking. this isn't really in the middle of a neighborhood. I'm zoomed out pretty far and am not seeing many houses within a walkable distance.
  2. a couple more pieces and e12 will become a major residential street
  3. luna on w9 and superior is good. lulo by map room isn't bad, either.
  4. i have a dumb question. what is the type of tree that Cleveland plants downtown on the sidewalks? They look sickly even when they're fully healthy. is there a reason we can't plant more robust-looking trees?
  5. noaca has done much more more in the last 12 years than a hyperloop feasibility study. from the outside, it seems they do a good job.
  6. great that the site is being developed. I think i might have flipped the orientation of this proposal and put the big building and shops on Lexington. Ive felt that, with some concentrated development, league park could serve as something of a town square for the neighborhood with shops, churches, the family center and maybe a library circling it.
  7. that would be legitimately awesome
  8. it depends on the detail of these proposals and who runs the risk of a money-losing venue. we don't want a cash-poor school that is currently cutting budgets to overbuild and be on the hook for huge operating costs. that is one of the problems with the wolstei. center. also, kent state is the dream scenario for CSU and they don't have a huge building.
  9. let's keep in mind that this is primarily an auditorium and basketball court for a school. it should first be sized to fit the school's needs and other uses are secondary to that mission.
  10. I think it's more. there is a 16 acre development site and 1.5 million Square feet of offices to be built. would you rather a 2 acres developed- surrounded by 14 acres of surface parking and fencing or would you rather spread it out with multiple buildings that face the street
  11. in my experience. drivers use it going north to e13 but rarely going towards prospect since it's such a pain to turn left on e9. they could make it one way with curb bump outs for parallel parking and get an extra 20 or so feet of sidewalk
  12. don't have a photo, but they started putting in glass on the welcome center along superior
  13. I really want to be on board with DCA, but I can't help but feel like this isn't a serious plan. it's like 'the people who spent 15 years saying 20k residents was the magic number are now saying 20k won't cut it and small-potato things like pop-up shops and late night flea markets are the best places to put our energy to revive downtown retail.' also, they are being very generous with their time and money estimations for each initiative.
  14. wow. that abandoned building was a fixture
  15. I wish you could pay by card at the meter
  16. I think it's mainly the hotels. (9, Schofield, holiday inn) that cUse double parking. would it be possible to have Holiday Inn use short vincent
  17. the parking lots north of euclid at e40 would be a cool spot for a smaller style stadium could incorporate that cool art deco type building that's by the rta garage
  18. "store their defective personal property" phrases like these are why people don't take bicycle advocates seriously.
  19. any chance they'll use the site as leverage on stadium negotiations?
  20. yea let's hope they actually do
  21. I don't really see how this design is worse than the new builds on detroit that are directly across the street. people are upset that this went from a tower to 'just' 7 stories. but it never was a tower. it was a drawing of a tower that couldn't get its financing together after years of trying. I'd also like to see some use-studies on balconies. feels like they're one of those things that you'd think people would use, but they never actually do.
  22. what did he specifically hold back?
