  1. The only thing his post was missing was a mention of the autistic spectrum.
  2. I see so many people using the smartphone fare app and scanning their phone screens at the turnstiles that it almost seems unnecessary at this point.
  3. I was thinking more along the lines of 'Now maybe someone will do something with the handsome building that Norton Furniture was in.'
  4. Walked by Norton Furniture and it was cleared out and had signs indicating they were moving to the Rockefeller building.
  5. Really rising remarkably while returning from my rainy ramen run.
  6. https://www.cleveland.com/news/2019/08/cleveland-is-on-the-doorstep-of-doing-something-remarkable-that-no-other-city-has-done-but-we-could-screw-it-up-especially-if-you-dont-join.html One of the weirdest 'news' articles I've read in a while. Sadly I had to agree with the .com posters collectively saying 'Huh?'.
  7. Also, if you've walked east on Euclid in the morning when the sun is hitting it just right, it's almost blinding as-is. I can't imagine the retinal carnage if they were glossy. 'Beacon' fo sho.
  8. I don't get this mentality. It's not a remnant. It was replaced long ago by other uses. The Dunham Tavern itself is significant and important because it remained. Having sheep graze there in the lot next door to remind people that sheep used to graze there doesn't add significant value to the experience, in my opinion. It's akin to removing the concrete from the surrounding streets to remind people that streets used to be dirt and gravel, as KJP alludes to up-thread. I'm going off-topic and won't take this argument further.
  9. Could this be more wrong? There was a large building occupying the site. They tore it down and made it a grass lot. So how can you possibly say that the grass lot is irreplaceable?
  10. B&B is currently on-site so I'm assuming this got rubber stamped. Unfortunate.
  11. *Puts on nerd glasses* The owners of The Statler should have renamed it The Pentium so The Pentium and The Athlon could compete for residents.
  12. It's just Athlon. No E. Or am I insane?
  13. Their point was that an urban fabric can and will be built up on the peninsula. The proposed design didn't and could never tie into that fabric. In fact, it appeared to be laid out in such a way as to discourage interaction with the surrounding neighborhood.
  14. This atrocity?
  15. think he meant to say Berusch
  16. And there's already a publicly accessible hallway that runs behind that office space paralleling Euclid.
  17. What was the last time we had such a resounding negative response to a proposal? County HQ? MedMart? Casino garage and skywalk? The billboards at 4th and Prospect? Terdolph Park?
  18. The freakin' Vue in Beachwood does a better job with parking than this. That was another NRP development.
  19. Huh. I must have missed all that surface parking in the conceptual renderings.
  20. "Hey Karl I found this great deal on loopnet for this apartment building in Cleveland, looks like it's in great shape! I think we can apply for the tax credits sight unseen on this one!" *flies to cleveland* "oh...."
  21. Looks like a picture of 2994 S Moreland, which still look decent.
  22. On Prospect across from the Wolstein Center.
  23. One of the more under-the-radar projects in the area moving along:
