I hope they're not serious about the Avenue being a test market for this project. The Avenue simply isn't in a very desirable location right now. Eventually there will be more things over there, but it's pretty isolated right now.

For now they aren't cutting anything up really. The employees will still need to go upstairs for stockrooms, offices, breakroom, etc.

Brooks Brothers is currently undergoing a remodel. They're going to be mostly consolidating to the first floor, and re-arranging registers and merchandise. Bedrock is committed to keeping them around as long as possible.

Its not a tease, there is a Blockland Community Update on July 1 for anyone who wants to attend. https://www.facebook.com/events/362677884599201/

Here's a quick and dirty mockup I did on my phone from the Indians game yesterday ?

Finally, some condos!

Here's a link to the video of the press conference on Ownum/ChampTitles for anyone interested :

Here you go: Art Falco will exit the stage at Playhouse Square; Gina Vernaci will become CEO on July 1 https://www.crainscleveland.com/arts-entertainment/art-falco-will-exit-stage-playhouse-square-gina-vernaci-will-become-ceo-july-1

Victoria's Secret in the Avenue at Tower City has closed. People heading in for the upcoming CIFF will be treated to a vastly emptier mall than last year.

Another restaurant casualty in the east bank of the flats... http://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2016/11/10/willeyville-the-first-restaurant-to-open-in-flats-east-bank-has-closed

re: waterloo brew, I think this is where I found it: http://www.crainscleveland.com/article/20151106/BLOGS16/151109787/new-venues-add-jolt-to-waterloo-arts-district

Crossing my fingers for some condos???

Waterloo Brew was unable to brew, because of laws stating that a brewery owner may not also operate a bar more than 1 mile away from the brewery. Alan Glazen owns multiple bars far away, ABC, XYZ, etc. and thusly was not allowed to operate a brewery as well. The law is antiquated, but was intended to prevent the big guys, Bud, Miller, etc from owning bars and bullying the competition.

According to a source, the Tower City mall management transition is happening tomorrow, yes March 17, St Patricks Day, the day the mall is overrun with drunk high school kids, and it closes at 2pm. There will be a 30 day transition where Forest City will be involved in training the new ownership, and there will be no little fanfare or announcements.

RE: Moxie on Prospect, there used to be signs saying Moxie coming soon, those have all come down, leaving the door open for the owners to introduce whatever other concept they want

So, Wild Eagle may have removed the Chief head from their signage plans, but are still proudly displaying the (maybe not racist to the white man but still unnecessary cultural appropriation) logo on the gigantic electronic billboard signs for the 9. Any idea who to complain to about this?

Eddy's Barbershop, they have a location on Coventry. http://www.eddysbarbershop.com/

My friend took a picture of the front of the building this morning. Looks like this sign was actually a temporary sign, that was used during construction to advertise the future use of the building? larger image: https://www.dropbox.com/photos/shared_space/Z6nZcTRKqTCVanY

Has anybody seen this? http://www.jhbbuilding.com/ trying to sell the building again it seems?

My educated guess to the Chef would be Chris Hodgson/Driftwood group because they operate the restaurants Sanctuary in the Doubletree (Hilton) in Beachwood and Westlake

At first I thought that's the project they're seeking at West 117th and Lake. But it's for the development where the other church is in the 9500 block of Lake Road -- hence the name. Correct? It is this project previously mentioned in this thread: http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,925.msg752458.html#msg752458

More info on the new Brickhaus partners development. They sponsored the cleveland Dinner Lab (https://dinnerlab.com) event last night at St Thomas Evangelical Lutheran on Lake rd, and on their social media have been mentioning something called '95 Lake', and provided a link with renderings and more: warning, adobe flash! http://issuu.com/brickhauspartners/docs/9509_lake

Americano will be closing at the end of September. https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=10153477167670081&id=69627420080&fref=nf&pnref=story
