Panini's closed suddenly. https://www.cleveland19.com/2019/07/29/paninis-bar-grill-prospect-ontario-cleveland-closes/?fbclid=IwAR1O0hipj2RPBHlaLVHWXgQcWka4rLj3krP5zXjaFapexxBJDtnXOwWZDdo

She posted one not too long ago....Shake Shack coming to downtown. To the Garfield Building. https://www.cleveland.com/business/2018/12/shake-shack-lines-up-downtown-cleveland-location-at-garfield-building.html

I saw a letter circulating around on Facebook that RCO limited wants to raze Bob Evans on Detroit and build a Raising Cane's chicken fingers restaurant. Did Bob Evans close? Isn't that building fairly new?

Hoping they clean the facade! Who knows? Maybe it will look like the schofield once it's all polished!

We got a letter in the mail a couple months ago to discuss the possibility of tearing down the 1 story vacant brick building on the corner of Westlake and Detroit to build a Wendy's. I believe the vacant building is owned by a church and used to house Streat Burger.

My dad used to work for AT&T (sometimes in that building) and he said it is jammed full of the central exchanges and switches for Cleveland (as you might imagine). I'm guessing the top two floors will be retained by them for their cell network access. I used to live in the building across the street (the finance building) on the 6th floor and we could see into the AT&T building all the time but rarely ever saw people. Mostly just servers and equipment. Pretty cool!

That's odd? Isn't that right next door to Titans Gym? Not right next door but yes a couple minute walk.

Read's Jeweler's and Loan moved out of their space on Prospect (by city tap, winking lizard, bw3, etc) and moved to a new location on St. Clair. Heard a gym is opening up in the space that was previously occupied by Read's.

Work has started on this project. They have a cherry picker on site and have started removing the parging on the face of the building. Will definitely be an improvement over this now vacant part of Madison. Pretty excited to taste their rums! 8-)

Yeah, Stark has done a good job in Westlake and Woodmere, but our experience with him in Cleveland is all talk and no show. Only he can change that perception, and he hasn't done much yet to do so. What was stark responsible for in Woodmere? Eton or something completely different?

Here's a crappy picture I took yesterday of the new sign that went up. (the sign went up one night earlier this week). They were power washing the sidewalk out front yesterday. Looks like they could open this weekend?

No, BW3 is going in across the street at 724 Prospect. This place is part of the Red Restaurant Group: http://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2015/11/06/details-emerge-on-red-based-restaurant-to-open-on-prospect-avenue 811 Kitchen has a sign in their window saying they are open in July. Big flat screen tvs were delivered today. Also BW3 says they are opening June 28. Signage went up on both sides of the building earlier this week.

The neon sign on the roof of the Q is lit up tonight. Can't tell if they are still testing it or not as I am not high enough. But I can see it from my 6th floor window. Just in time for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference finals tomorrow!

Here's a picture of the new banner. Not sure if it has been posted elsewhere or not. http://www.wkyc.com/news/local/sherwin-williams-sign-to-replace-lebron-mural-for-rnc/174924894

Not sure when these went up but I noticed last night that there are new LED streetlights up and down Prospect. Much better than the ugly old ones. At least from E 9th to the casino. Not sure how much farther they extend.

Should the new weston developments be posted in a separate thread?

Downtown cleveland alliance finally released their Q3 report for Cleveland. Can be found here.... http://www.downtowncleveland.com/media/253192/q3_2015_spreadscompressed.pdf

Will you please post a link to the Q3 update when it's available? I don't see it on the DCA's website yet...

Not sure if they plan on using both floors or not, but I know there was an issue with the previous building owner (who also owned my building). He refused to lease out the two floors separately. If someone planned to move into the ground floor, they were responsible for also paying for rent for the top floor whether or not they planned on using the space. Fortunately, the set of buildings was sold last fall (including the building that houses winking lizard) and maybe thats why BW3 finally agreed to sign the lease. But the restaurant is the width of both buildings.

So I am getting a new neighbor apparently...Buffalo Wild Wings or BW3 is moving in next door where the former RJ Bolands stood, next to City Tap. It will be interesting to see what another sports bar does to the existing bars (clevelander, city tap, paninis, harry buffalo, and the few smaller ones). But still good to see that someone is finally moving into that space which has been empty for 4-5 years. They aren't expecting to open until early next year. It also explains the facade work they are doing on the Huron side of the building. Haven't seen any formal announcements yet.

Do the two pictures show up? The supply companies are Superior Supply Co. (2 different addresses): 211 Superior Ave 1917 E 9th Street. And the other one is 2073 E 4th Street (can't read the entire label)

Found these very old whiskey bottles in a ceiling in a house I am renovating in Lakewood. Some have addresses placing the supplier on E 9th street and E 4th street. Couldn't find anything in Google about either of these brands. I'm thinking pre-prohibition based on the one having a date of 1906. House was built in 1915. Any info or worth about any of these would be appreciated!

Is this the smokestack they are referring to?

What's the name of the building just north of this building with the one facade having no windows? Didn't that building recently get sold as well?
