  1. And I'll say again..."Good riddance!"
  2. And don't forget this part of the article..."That has investors including Tony George, who owns an empty office building at 1224 Huron Road, considering rental projects. In an interview this week, George said the George Group and an unidentified developer might turn the small building into 12 high-end apartments over ground-floor retail."
  3. Hmmm...personally I like the Key West sign better :/
  4. On Clinton/Franklin in Detroit Shoreway there are many people with chickens, bees and small farms. There are beautiful old houses and I know a few residents who used the special rehab loans to make them beautiful. The elementary school around W105 is pretty good from what I hear, but you would definitely want to do your research. There are plenty of good schools in Cleveland, just not the school district overall.
  5. BTW...has anyone noticed the metal walls are up in the downtown Chipotle space?
  6. Haha, well I ordered take out on Wednesday and our food was great. Can't speak for the service except for when I called and she asked for my name, she seemed to think that my name was funny (last name is also a first name). I will probably be checking out brunch on Sunday as well.
  7. Amazing! It is exciting to see this great program moving to other neighborhoods.
  8. Great to see except I will have to start running more :D Part of my exercise is walking from home to Constantinos/Studio Palmieri/restaurants in WHD. This will be great for tourists but especially good for downtown residents and workers.
  9. I forgot to mention that the waitress said they would hopefully be doing brunch on Sundays going forward. I stopped in today to get a carry out menu and brunch is listed...so excited to have brunch in this part of downtown...Sorry Touch...I will be stopping in a lot less now...:)
  10. Noted here: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,6956.msg576831.html#msg576831 My bad...I didn't realize it was started so long ago.
  11. I can't do it on my work laptop, but can on my mac...
  12. Correct. The gumbo place is going into the front with the plywood up and Chipotle is rumoured for the Bang and Clatter space. Since according to some in the forum it is a done deal, I would say that E4 yoga's moving is a good sign. I cannot believe Chipotle has not gone into downtown yet. With over 100,000 downtown workers...then throwing in residents and tourists and a college crowd within a mile, it seems like a no brainer.
  13. Nobody has mentioned this station's redevelopment...I saw it for the first time a couple weeks ago and it's interesting. http://www.riderta.com/majorprojects/buckeyewoodhill/
  14. My partner and I will be :)
  15. East Fourth Yoga is moving into the House of Blues space for Saturday yoga...Let's hope this is to make way for Chipotle!! From Facebook: "East 4th & Yoga is moving! Come join us tomorrow (9/1) at our new location, 308 Euclid Avenue at the House of Blues Cleveland! Ezra Warren will kick us off with an all levels class at 10am. See you there!"
  16. The distance of the walk isn't really the problem. It's the safety along that walk that I think is being overlooked. Hopefully the rumor of another parking garage at that location turns out to be true. Well, good to see your opinion on closeness has changed.
  17. I'm going to guess that was sarcasm Haha...would you expect anything other than from me ;)
  18. What are you talking about MTS???!!! There's NO parking downtown. I have to walk across the street to park hahaha...I'm sure this will make a certain member who expresses CSU displeasure in this board ecstatic.
  19. Here's some good news on Waverly Station: Waverly station will contain 22 eco-friendly homes, all of them three stories, with rooftop decks and lake views. Only six so far went up for sale. Three are already sold. "When we complete this site, we'll be moving on something else to build right in this neighborhood." http://www.wkyc.com/rss/article/257333/23/New-homes-built-in-Detroit-Shoreway-neighborhood-already-sold
  20. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't start this again. Read back a few pages and you will understand every issue he has.
  21. It is...and why is it not in a good location? The Cleveland today is different from the Cleveland a few years ago when MP was trying to make a go of it. Black Dog is no more out of the way or poorly located than Hodge's.
  22. This article created some speculation in my mind... "The Cleveland office of the Grant Thornton LLP accounting firm plans to move to a full-floor office at One Cleveland Center from the Halle Building. With the move, Grant Thornton will exit a former department store converted to offices in the 1980s in the city's Theater District. Its destination is a chisel-shaped contemporary office tower dating from 1982 in downtown's NineTwelve District, the current name of the city's one-time finance district." http://www.crainscleveland.com/article/20120823/SUB1/120829889 So....just after Forest City announces they are looking at a conversion for the Halle building to apartments, a company moves a few streets over? Call it wishful thinking, but sounds to me as if the likelihood of it happening isn't too far fetched (that's just the view I choose to take until I hear otherwise. Of course, I can be logical and think of the other reason, but choose not to :D)
  23. jjames0408 replied to a post in a topic in Roads & Biking
    Haha...this part made me laugh... "They raised Cain, and they should have,'' said Kasich, who urged Wray to scour ODOT's budget and construction-funding toolbox to get the Inner Belt Bridge done by 2016." I'm sure they were hoping we'd just be content with 2023.
  24. Haha...I tried to go there on their original opening date this month so I can't wait until they open!! Great menu AND right across the street from me...yes please!!
