The plain jane triplex went before the planning a commission a month ago. http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,1699.msg726095.html

Check out this infill at the corner of Jay Ave and West 30th. I don't like the brick fence along the sidewalk in the backyard. Other than that, looks impressive. http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/landmark/agenda/2014/10232014/index.php http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/landmark/agenda/2014/10232014/image/Jay_Ave_01.jpg http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/landmark/agenda/2014/10232014/image/Jay_Ave_02.jpg

Count me in the group that loves the idea. Rockandroller hit it on the head. Most restaurants in Tremont have some kind of theme. It's just the reference to Bourbon Street that seems to put off a few of you. This place will do well as long as the food and drinks are good. It won't have a negative affect on Tremont. I'll start to worry when drunk chicks start flashing dudes for beads in true Bourbon St style. When that happens I'll be sure to head over there every day to complain!

Maybe something from Weston too? We've seen new construction proposals from them several times over the years. Nothing ever seems to get off the ground.

That's a bold statement No, that's a bold statement.

It's still odd to see Varajao drop 20+ points in a game. The first half of his career, that guy was the biggest offensive liability since Dennis Rodman. Crazy how he's developed a jumper.

^ Manning might end up with another hundred TDs when it's all said and done.

Agreed. That sign looks like it's 15 feet tall. Looks good.

MayDay[/member] Did anything ever come of this consideration? We have moderators still moderating their own arguments.

There is so much shenanigans from the school board over issue 4. It relies on people's ignorance about their tax bill (or landlord's tax bill!). The wide range of housing prices in Cleveland's all but guarantee this thing passing. The mailers I keep getting always quote small monthly dollar amount. Then in small print at the bottom it says for a $50,000 house. http://www.cleveland.com/metro/index.ssf/2014/10/be_aware_when_voting_on_bond_i.html

Yep. Especially run-down ones like this which likely had decades of leaking tanks below ground, and customers spilling gasoline and engine oil above. The site will probably need major remediation. With the dwindling amount of vacant or underutilized land in Tremont, now is the time. Here's hoping the new owners have it in 'em.

LOL Hmmm....I'm hoping more for teardown and new street level retail and 50+ apartments That would be okay too, I guess.

Cool. Maybe they'll re-open the gas station!

The talk of at-grade intersections is confusing me. How much of this road is actually elevated? I know there are a couple bridges going over rail lines, but the rest of it is all at-grade correct? The cul-de-sacs were just going to terminate at the same level as the OC, but with fencing or landscaping separating them.

Thumbs up.

Then why even have overtime?

Christ, what a mess. I'm grateful there is somebody with connections that can get a whiff of these rumors before the rest of us.

Good to see the volume of media coverage the last couple weeks for both the Amtrak and freight delays through this corridor. I'm interested in whether the vested interests have the teeth to actually fix the issues quickly. From the sounds of it, the freight growth really started a few years ago. Not too surprising nothing was done until recently. Necessity is the mother of all invention, after all.

Cue ODOT lobbying state representatives to amend the state constitution to ban statewide funding agencies without the letters O-D-O-T.

There was a hint of this a couple months ago. But the planning commission didn't post photos online, like they do for most agendas. http://planning.city.cleveland.oh.us/designreview/drcagenda/2014/08012014/080114-REVISED-DRAFT-AGENDA.pdf EUCLID CORRIDOR DESIGN REVIEW EC2014-017 - Euclid 115 Phase 2 Development Project Address: 11601 & 11611 Euclid Avenue Project Representatives: Denver Brooker, Vocon Jason Burick, Vocon Also posted in the Uptown (UARD) thread: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,11359.msg719314.html#msg719314

There is a medium sized CMHA parcel with 8 duplexes bounded by West 5th, 6th, and Jefferson. In a dreamworld, I'd see them replaced with a bunch of single family homes, similar to the brick-faced Chicago style homes further north on West 6th. Little chance of it ever happening. CMHA doesn't let go of property often. Even if you made some of them available for low-income sales.

Oakland won last night. Indians are officially out of it. Kluber had a hell of a game again.

Our leaders lack vision and don't have the right people in their ear. What else is new?

^ The short-term solutions sound good. I am disappointed they dismissed the transportation center. But it sounded like their garage proposal that didn't get the TIGER grant was halfhearted anyway.

The last two 3-and-outs took 1 minute off the clock COMBINED. You have no chance if you can't manage a single first down when it matters most. And two missed field goals? Browns gave that one away.
