^Again as stated before, there is not enough land available for an IKEA at Steelyard. The largest available open space at Steelyard is only 11-12 acres, plus there are a few smaller pieces of land still available for development. The Best Buy site is being redeveloped currently for a fitness facility, and even if that were not happening, the former Best Buy site would not be big enough for IKEA. If IKEA would have been planned from the time Steelyard Commons was first proposed, then yes IKEA could have been a part of the development, but now retail already there would have to be removed to make room for an IKEA. I do not see this happening.

Wrong! Three teams have won the WS with winning streaks of 18 games in the regular season, or more. 1. Chicago White Sox in 1906 2. NY Yankees in 1947 3. NY Yankees in 1953

Indians defeat Min 5-2, win 100th game of the year, first 100 win season since 1995. Go Tribe.

There are many opportunities out there for those who are not into or able to get into computer type jobs, or do not want to go to a 4 year college, and other types of tech collar positions. With the baby boomers retiring at an ever increasing rate, shortages are already happening in the nursing filed, plumbers, construction workers, machinist, auto mechanic's, and on and on. This are the jobs for those who are of an economic aimless stage. There are plenty of companies out there who are willing to pay/educate these individuals so as to fill the jobs available, or will become available in the future. Community Colleges, special vocational training schools are out there for those who desire to make a good living at a good wage. The places that could help to guide individuals to these fields in need, and the training available are job centers, union halls, community organizations, etc..

This is the post from back in July, of which I am a fan of. But the most recent renderings imo are horrible, and in 20 years will be so undesirable. Anyone know why the big change in design?

Re: most of the post from today. The attached article is from 4 years ago, yet it offers insight on why dem's/repub's think the way they do about cities/states. Democrats Run America’s Ten Poorest Cities 4 years ago I have come to believe that chain emails may one day lead to the death of our society. Chain emails alone are responsible for the creation and the success of at least one popular website, snopes.com. Chain emails (and their ugly step-sister, the forward) are the bane of every email user’s technological needs. We must make ourselves more adept with modern technology so we have to use the internet and email… which leads us to receive junk mail at a level far worse than anything the old mainstay, snail mail, used to give us. But not all chain mail/forward/junk mail is bad; in fact, there are times when these pieces of technological dross are downright informative!........... http://eaglerising.com/1912/democrats-run-americas-ten-poorest-cities/

^ ^^Instead of what could have been, or speculation, how about a few facts that are true/accurate. Indians 53 wins on the road this year are the most ever for them in regular season. 14 wins on the road in a row broke the old record of 13. In their own divisional games against Chi, Det, KC, and Min, the tribes record per team for 2017 is KC 12-7, Det 13-6, Chi 11-5, and Min 10-6, with 6 games left (3 with Min, 3 with Chi). Very impressive.

Obviously, you are allowed to proclaim your choice as to what is best, or not. But there are probably just as many people out there who think that Campbell's is the best. Now, I have never been to this Kernels, but have been to Campbell's (way to many times), so I cannot say if one is better than the other, but what is good for the city/downtown as a whole is that Campbell's is going to set up shop downtown, and we can most likely all agree that is a good thing, and wish them success.

Here is a list of properties from the CSU web site of available housing. But it too is not all inclusive of available housing for CSU students off campus. One choice not listed below, but found elsewhere on the CSU web site is a place called University Studio Apts at 29th & Euclid. The info on this apt building for students says there are 150 units. Not sure what they mean by "units" as the building does not look big enough to hold 150 "apts"/units. Another choice, 2320 Superior is marketed for students of CSU, and it is not on this list also. According to the info on 2320 Superior, it has 11units/34 beds. As CSU continues to grow, so have the number of housing options adjacent to campus. These communities are just steps from campus and provide a wealth of living options. (says the CSU web site) 1.) Reserve Square 2.) Statler Arms 3.) The Edge on Euclid 4.) 1900 Euclid Avenue Lofts 5.) University Lofts 6.) The Langston 7.) The Domain at Cleveland 8.) Walker & Weeks 9.) Euclid Commons 10.) Fenn Tower 11.) University Commons So, with all the on-campus living, off-campus living, near-campus living in the Campus District, 4500 students being non-commuters is a good thing. Berkman has said openly that he would like to get the enrollment of the school to around 25,000, with at least 10,000 living "on campus." Now that is a goal we can all agree upon.

So, what impact will this have on the CLE in general, or the move of the HQ to Key tower? Time will tell. Forest City to weigh sale, merger to 'enhance shareholder value' Forest City Realty Trust Inc., parent of Forest City Washington, will explore a potential merger or sale, among other options to "enhance stockholder value," the company announced Monday...... https://www.bizjournals.com/washington/news/2017/09/12/forest-city-to-weigh-sale-merger-to-enhance.html

What's happening with Louisville KY. How did it increase in pop by 341,000 people from 2000>2010? Does not seem correct to me from what I know about the city.

I think Cleveland has the capacity- downtown had roughly 150,000 workers back in the 90s, even more the further you go back. The infrastructure to support 50,000 workers is already here- but without question if Amazon were to come here or any other city in the Midwest, it would be a game-changer. The current office supply couldn't support 50,000 workers, so new buildings would need to be built. The impact of 50,000 people making an average of $100,000 each would unquestionably create jobs due to people having to eat, shop, sleep, and play somewhere locally. I hope the push for Amazon to move to the CLE was hard enough to at least have Cleveland considered. I've always heard and seen statistics that the downtown CLE workforce back in the 70's - 80's was approx. 125k, and as of approx. 2010 - current is about 95k. So, if the CLE were chosen for the Amazon HQ2 city, it could easily handle the additional 50k as 30k of the 50 would only get us back to a level from 40 - 50 years ago. The downtown infrastructure has not changed from the 70-80's to current. At least not the size of the streets, parks, underground utilities, etc. The number of buildings though has, along with how some of the buildings use has changed (office to residential and/or hotel).

Dan Gilbert does not really care about the CLE, and this article proves it even more. I've said all along that DG only cares about making as much money as he can off of NEO citizens to cover his cost of his business' here, and taking the profits back to Detroit.

Yes, last nights attendance was only 21,000+, but don't forget yesterdays game was suppose to be a 1:10pm start and was moved to prime time at the last minute. So, how many people who had tickets, or wanted to go to a day game had to forgo attending the night game because of the last minute change. We will never know, but I bet if the game would have stayed a day game, the crowd who have been over 30k.

Actually, if one wants to dust off some old unbuilt project, and include the old Post Office facility on Huron Rd, then another opportunity to me after the May Co/Jacobs PS lot/Weston Super Block would have to be Tower City Center along Huron Rd. Amazon could start with the old Post Office Building for phase 1; Phases 2, 3, 4 could all be build along Huron Rd to Ontario Ave., and if need be even include buildings along Ontario Ave. toward the Hope Memorial Bridge.
