I see what you did there...

Too bad they didn't dig deeper in the first place and cap over the tracks, it seems like an ugly wasteful stretch.

I saw this on the news a few weeks ago and thought it was worth a look (as well as a comment or two from KJP) https://www.cleveland19.com/2019/07/16/hyperloop-cleveland-chicago-minutes-is-track-picking-up-speed-video/

216-67723522....one too many numbers!

Is this something that Cleveland is lagging in compared to other cities, or is this something that is a newer idea and may be a nice tool to appeal to bringing new businesses into the city? Interesting either way...

No inside information, just a statement. I may have missed the signage if there is any....but I wish there was some signage that jumped out like the ones on Euclid do. There are many people in town this week and it would have been a great opportunity to showcase an upcoming project. I know developers work on tenants and retail prior to a project, but who knows if this kind of event (ASG) may have been a chance to spark interest from outside of the area?

I'm glad they DID put the signage up because to out of towners, this area may have been mistaken for an urban wasteland! Between the signage and the ASG "pop up" bars that I noticed walking with the fam yesterday, downtown is looking pretty alive. I wish there would have been some signage for the Stark and Geis properties (along with other coming soon projects).

And this is why opinions are important. I can understand why you (people) feel this way. I on the other hand feel that building adds pop to the skyline along Euclid, but I feel that the parking structure with its glass adds to the corridor for pedestrian traffic. I think the glass does a nice job of reflecting the lights at street level and makes the place feel more alive.

I tend to agree, La Guardia comes to mind...but maybe the approach and altitudes are different?

For surfing the world wide web?

It may be, but then again maybe not. It's still being advertised on their website.

I'm going with Lakewood on this one...

It's been a while, but I believe that in the downtown area of Toronto there are townhomes as well.

I'm thinking more like...

I agree with the above statement. When I was driving into downtown, I noticed the wavy like pattern that made the building really stick out from the surrounding buildings. Some may like it, some may not, but the fact of the matter is the building IS being built as is and it isn't going to change now. Enjoy it!

When I talk about density, I didn't mean NYC type density, but what Cleveland once had. Yes it is dense in certain areas, but we have definitely lost some very dense areas for various reasons.. (Photos from KJP and Mendo)

https://www.cleveland.com/datacentral/2018/05/cleveland_is_nations_27th_most.html It would have been awesome to experience the density of the 1940's and 50's in Cleveland.

$5 ?

^ I just comment in another thread about this property not too long ago. I'm happy to see this will not be razed, these types of structures are just aren't made anymore.

I just looked at Cleveland Construction website and under the projects section it seems that they have done/are doing plenty of urban high-rise projects ( out of state), maybe I am missing something?

Looking good! How far behind, if at all, schedule is the project?

^I threw up in my mouth a little...
