  1. Site plan looks good.?
  2. The project is being branded "The Centennial" with CBRE handling leasing: https://www.crainscleveland.com/real-estate/millennia-cos-has-name-its-270-million-renovation-project-downtown-cleveland-centennial
  3. As recently as last year there were over 4000 employees at Lordstown before they cut the third shift. That 38% stat might be lagging behind the loss of third and second shifts.
  4. Exciting news for sure. I think the 17 story Minneapolis building is probably similar to what we'll get. I hope they find a better architect though.
  5. That would be quite the cherished landmark if it was built (and still standing). I wonder if the Group Plan that followed 10 years later would have happened. Or even if the Tower City complex would have been built. Could have completely changed the landscape of downtown Cleveland.
  6. That's pretty impressive. The demand is definitely there for Playhouse Square. That area has needed more residential for a while.

    People that message me at work with greetings like "hi" or "hello" and then wait for me to respond before asking their question. I get they are trying to be polite, but I don't need the pleasantries. Just get to your question. Them: hi. Me: Hello [5 minutes later] Them: How are you? Me: Fine. [5 minutes later] Them: can you help me with so-and-so?

    The purple light is apparently from Green City Growers https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/local-news/oh-cuyahoga/your-question-has-been-answered-about-purple-light-green-city-growers
  9. That's some token gesture. The thousands of jobs in Nashville would make them one of the top employers in any of the 3-C's. I'd take that consolation prize.
  10. I wonder when there will be discussion about renovating Public Hall
  11. I think that looks great.? Especially compared to some recent projects we've seen that look awful, like Edison phase 2 and Uptown phase 3.
  12. ^ Suspended scaffolding lowered from the roof, probably.
  13. The height and density is good for the corner. Way better than the 2 story retail building that was in the commercial listing. Putting Uptown phase 2 in the rendering doesn't do this buildings any favors. ? Otherwise looks about what I was expecting.
  14. That would be a massive wasted opportunity. If that's the best they can come up with, maybe it's time the city ends their relationship with Pace to find somebody able to do something big. edit: Here is the overhead of the warehouses: https://www.google.com/maps/@41.5082613,-81.7001439,373m/data=!3m1!1e3?hl=en

    Part of tanking is acquiring picks from other teams. You can't do that without assets to trade. And signing your own guys is the only way the Cavs will have something worth trading.
  16. Those cheap antennas you can get on Amazon are garbage. I'm in the same boat and can't pick up 8 and 19 easily. I keep meaning to install a better antenna in the attic but never get around to it. I just stream the games on the NFL mobile app through Verizon.
  17. Thanks for keeping an eye on this.
  18. To add to YABO's comment, concrete generates a fair amount of heat when it cures. They'll keep it covered to keep the temperature up during the week. If you check the cam, they are in the process of covering mat 2 now.
  19. They are in the middle of the second foundation pour if anybody wants to take a look at this morning's timelapse. Click on "Time-Lapses", then mat pour 1 or 2. The pictures for pour 2 start at midnight, but it doesn't look like they started work until 4am, so you'll have to go forward a bit. https://app.truelook.com/?u=gp1532442178#tl_live edit: Here is a direct link to a movie for mat pour 1. This was a couple weeks ago: https://app.truelook.com/?m=15411437125054321449792
  20. A tease about 11601 Euclid Ave. We'll probably see pictures whenever they take it to the planning commission after local design review. It's listed as "student housing" on the agenda, so I don't have my hopes up for something high end. http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/designreview/drcagenda/2018/PDF/EC-Agenda-11-15-18.pdf 9:00 EC 2018-042 Uptown 3 Student Housing Seeking Schematic Approval 11601 Euclid Avenue University Circle District
  21. I don't know how accurate Google Maps is, but it shows the eastern side of W. 25th to Clark as Tremont. Not that it matters I guess, these border projects benefit both neighborhoods. Agreed. Who knows what their long term plans are. Though, the SOP in Cleveland is to let it deteriorate for years, then complain that it's too expensive to maintain or renovate and must come down.
  22. See the Tremont thread: http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/designreview/drcagenda/2018/08172018/CPC-Agenda081718.pdf NW2018-015 – Tremont Animal Clinic New Construction: Seeking Final Approval Project Address: 2885 West 25th Street Project Representatives: *, Osborn Engineering http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/designreview/brd/detailDR.php?ID=2889&CASE=NW 2018-020

    One thing many of those blue cities in red states have in common is shitty transit. And that is often because of lack of state support and active opposition -- looking at you Nashville -- for large scale expansion.
  24. I'll throw out a guess: MRN
  25. Nobody goes to the building department with construction plans unless they've already gone through design review, block clubs, BZA, etc, which would have become public. Dimit's done a lot of restaurant interior renovations. Given it says "Markt" on the plans, it could just be a renovation of their Bier Markt space which wouldn't require all the city review (unless they touched the storefront which goes through landmark commission). Or maybe a second location?
