    The camera is extremely blurry now. Maybe the lens just fogged up, but I can barely see a thing.
  2. ^Would have been neat if they kept it and renovated it.
  3. Anyone been through downtown Berea? Those townhouses must have been built somewhat recently, but they offer a good (and varied) urban feel. That would definitely be ideal, but I just want something that doesn't have aluminum panels.
  4. Well, we have to create land for the Cuyahoga river dredgings, right? So I think it makes sense to move the port onto a new piece of land, especially since the current port location could be prime real estate. Cleveland current use of the waterfront is pathetic. Of course, there are probably better locations for a port. How about Jane Campbell's plan of building a new island just north of Whiskey Island for the port? (also I apologize for being off topic)
  5. Jacobs owns the parcel and I'm sure if there is ever a business case for a building, they will build it. Some years ago there was a competition of sorts to design a building for that parcel. There was a design inspired by African culture/design that won I think. Beutiful design. I think it was referred to in another thread on here some time back. I hate to be that guy, but I'd really love to see that African inspired tower and I'm not really sure where to look.
  6. Gorgeous!! We need more of this in Cleveland. We need to quit tearing down the old buildings and start embracing them.
  7. Personally I hope the port can still move somewhere eventually. There is so much lakefront land that would be prime for development. Cleveland makes the least use of its waterfront compared to any other city I've been to.
  8. I think I could actually get behind this!
  9. West of the tower would be the hotel I think.
  10. ^It's Columbus Rd, not Columbia. But I'm on StrapHanger's side. Columbus Rd could be a great place for re-purposing old buildings and building new ones for a mixed us development. It would be a great site, with the skate park and rivergate park nearby and Ohio City also not too far. If you want to start all over somewhere, try that on the Scranton Rd peninsula.
  11. There is so much potential for the arcade considering its proximity to East 4th and a booming part of Euclid. I hope this sale produces good results.
  12. It will be renovated
  13. It should be VERY easy to work around and incorporate the Kinko's building into the plan. It would be such a shame to see that building come down.
  14. Too bad Yellowcake is going to be moving. I wonder if she'll pick a permanent place soon.
  15. Yeah the bridge is awful. The overall design is pretty "meh" However at least there's some retail and they're doing some nice things to the sidewalk.
  16. Wow, awesome! I hope it all happens.
  17. Ahhhh Hugo Boss! How cool would that be?
  18. I know I'm so difficult, but I live away from Cleveland when I'm not in school and I'd love to see some pics of what you guys are talking about :)
  19. Could anyone take some pics of The Avengers construction? I'd love to see what exactly is going on.
  20. Third story actually. *edit* (actually it appears they will just add a second story, but they plan to eventually add a third.) Does anyone know where exactly it's going to be docked?
  21. Of course! Is the work happening on the tower or the building on Prospect and E. 9th?
  22. ^ I've heard this building is being used in The Avengers movie, so that's probably it.
  23. Wow that'd be so cool. Unfortunately, from what I understand, parts of Burke are really unstable and probably not safe for a park.
  24. Are they still awaiting funding? For some reason I thought this project was funded.

    ^ Why do so many straight men think that they are so hot that every gay guy wants to rape them? Calm down, buddy. Let people room with whoever they want. I'm gay and I think I'm a pretty good roommate. I haven't tried to rape anyone thus far. Sounds like your roomie was just an asshole when drunk, which is a trait both straight and gay men can have.
