Thank you

So took this pic on the way home last night, Im not sure if the bright spot in the middle was replaced or just cleaned but WOW if thats the color this whole building will become, what a TRANSFORMATION! Really stunning :-o EDIT sorry had some upload issues:

New rendering of the Hofbrauhaus from Playhouse Square's facebook. What is that hulking white thing in the back? Am I just forgetting whats already there? :lol: Guess I need to take a walk...

I think this might help. It'll definitely liven up the dead zone. It's like downtown just drops off after 12th and then reappears at CSU. Would be nice to keep this moving north and really bring 9/12, Playhouse Sq, and CSU together One thing I was going to mention (someone said it up thread I think) is that this is a total destination spot. Everyone I know even if they don't visit downtown often are super excited that were getting one of these, and will visit no matter the location. Also i would imagine playhouse Square is one of the top places people who don't live in or frequent downtown often visit. So I don't think we need to worry about its success

With all of these restaurant changes does anyone know whats going on with the potential Hofbrauhaus? There was mention of it on the planning comission agenda a couple weeks ago and then nothing seemed to have come out of it...?

Saw a Green Line train coming into Tower City tonight with a bright bar of green LED lights on the front display and side display of the train. Maybe Jerry can answer... Is this being done on all light rail cars?? It makes it incredibly more efficient!

They've taken more off! Lookin good. I think all that's left is the curved piece on the cornice

I dropped by at lunch. It was CRAZY crowded but so awesome to see. And sparkling clean!!

Very cool to see the before and after... Looking at old photos of our cities can be so depressing lol...

One positive I heard on tv through all this was that due to the cleaning, areas that hasn't been touched in some time are being cleaned and supposedly it will look awesome when it's done

??? Weird. It was a nice pool for an indoor pool, had a cool skylight above it. Maybe this is part if their renovation?

When I saw this I thought it was an ancient thread of some long-dead proposal. Shocked this came out of seemingly nowhere. Lets hope they push through and MAYBE get some hotels at the other end of the street MOVING. (I'm looking at YOU "le Meridien")

What a mess :( I can't even imagine if this would've spread. What a disaster that could've been. Thankfully the alarm systems worked, the guard was alert, and the fire department was quick!

I can't wait for this. Although I will be using the North Coast station. Hopefully they really educate riders about this big change. Btw, if a person got in at Green Road would all trains proceed onto the WFL or just certain ones? Or maybe they're going with a diff schedule than back when it ran full service before.

I post this to the UO'ers since I know someone knows! What is the history of the building that currently houses TOMO? Anyone know what was there originally and how long it was vacant? A friend from work recently went and said the food and drinks were good but the whole place had a strange vibe. Like the owners were running a front for some shady business. Hahaha I guess I need to go check it out. She was told a "questionable" history of the building and I want to know the real deal.

The new displays at TC station are operating, designating between inner/outer track and blue/green line. THANK YOU Rta, this will work wonders!! :)

I've been riding the rapid to work regularly since July and one thing I have noticed is that VERY few drivers make any effort to alert their passengers if there is an issue or if there's confusion to which line they are. It's very irritating. A simple announcement would be so helpful in these instances.

Previous articles have stated that as soon as the deal was passed work could start immediately. I guess they really meant it!!

Well we don't know the construction timeline but there were workers with ladders already entering the PH Buildings on Huron

No renderings but this was on the agenda: "Ordinance No. 1726-12(Ward 3/Councilman Cimperman): Authorizing the Director of Capital Projects to issue a permit to OPTIMA 777, LLC to encroach into the public right-of-way of East 6th Street and St. Clair Avenue by installing, using, and maintaining an entrance canopy, 10 bollards and auto drop zone on St. Clair Avenue, outdoor dining area on East 6th Street, entrance canopy and sign on East 6th Street and St. Clair Avenue, sidewalk planter on St. Clair Avenue and flag poles, piers, stairwell enclosure and metal façade on East 6th and St. Clair Avenue."

Sorry! See above. I fixed it

From the Agenda... a new Sherwin Williams Banner! I like the current one too but we need come color. I like it! Even has the MedMart in it.... and conveniently no name on the Browns Stadium :roll:
