What happened to the proposed 18 story tower at the site of the childrens museum? Any clue?

Does anyone else see the irony in clamouring for foot traffic and at the same time saying that a pie-in-the-sky idea that moves people around via a ridiculous gondola would be good for Cleveland? How about the city focuses on making the streets livable, walkable, and connected rather than looking up to the sky.

$1 million per year for 208,000 sq ft is too pricey? I love the move. A historic building gets filled and the county doesn't spend a ton in the process. http://www.cleveland.com/cuyahoga-county/index.ssf/2013/07/cuyahoga_county_to_rent_storage_space_in_halle_warehouse_as_part_of_consolidation.html What planet do you live on where $1,000,000 a year for 200k SF in a incorrectly repurposed building is a good deal? $5/sf is a HUGE number, even for NEW industrial space. This is a goddamn joke

Only if you include your social security number and DOB in the photo

where did you find this RFQ?

They don't own it, that building sold last year for ~$375,000 IIRC

At long last there's a chipotle going downtown, next to noodlecat

there are train (rapid) tracks there

You can find a description of the space here: http://issuu.com/mmpi/docs/prospectuscc?mode=embed&layout=http%3A%2F%2Fskin.issuu.com%2Fv%2Flight%2Flayout.xml&showFlipBtn=true thats the first time I have seen a "pool" in any of the renderings showing the mall

That seriously looks incredible, I thought it was a rendering at first

i believe most assumed 24/7 operation. If they do have closing hours, that could be a real pain with everyone leaving at the same time. I assumed that, too. But I haven't seen anything directly related to it (without having to actually go through what was voted on). Okay I was just thinking, it is really weird we haven't heard much on hours of operation. Isn't it a pretty big deal to have such an unprecedented 24 hour operation in the heart of the city? The large number of late/all night visitors should completely change the personality of downtown. I think the issue is ripe for a PD article. http://www.horseshoe.com/info/cleveland/careers_faq.html#5

And I disagree with that. I listed studies here on why Cleveland is the most undeserved luxury market in the States. We have more people spending money via the Internet, more than any other city at luxury brands. zip codes 44120, 44122, 44118 & 44022 spend more money on luxury goods via the Internet than any other big city market. We dont have the brick and mortar stores in a centralized location like Boston, Philly (CBD or Suburban), ATL (suburban), Houston (suburban) to support the stores as of yet. The money is here, the retail location(s) is(are) not as of yet. link me to this study?
