Too bad it couldn't be another 5 stories taller but it should be a nice fill in that particular gap of the skyline. The tower should look really nice driving down 70 W towards downtown.

I have a feeling with all the media attention that corner will get, they will have no problem selling out all those condos. Talk about great advertising.... This will be an ongoing story for NBC4 for the next year and 1/2. This will put a huge spotlight on downtown and may spur even more growth.

NBC 4 Announces Downtown Studio 4 On The Square Planned For Broad And High Streets POSTED: 5:56 pm EST January 20, 2005 UPDATED: 9:05 am EST January 21, 2005 COLUMBUS, Ohio -- NBC 4 will build a landmark satellite studio at Broad and High streets in downtown Columbus, the station announced Friday. The studio will incorporate a glass facade; much like the "Today" show and other similarly designed NBC broadcast studios. Groundbreaking is scheduled for April. The studio opening is scheduled for summer 2006. Full story at http://www.nbc4i.com/station/4113290/detail.html http://www.8onthesquare.com/ http://www.broadandhigh.com/

TV station plans to build studio at Broad, High Friday, January 21, 2005 Debbie Gebolys THE COLUMBUS DISPATCH Broad and High is to become home to daily television news by next year. WCMH-TV (Channel 4) will open a Downtown news studio as part of the Casto company’s redevelopment of five buildings at the intersection once considered the most important in central Ohio. Scaffolding surrounds the one-time home of Roy’s Jewelers on the intersection’s northeast corner and adjoining buildings that once housed street-level stores beneath offices. The buildings have been vacant since city inspectors declared them unsafe two years ago. Casto plans to tear down 4 E. Broad St., just east of Roy’s and where the studio will be built, and 12 and 18 N. High St. beginning in April. It is part of a $30 million conversion that also will include offices, high-priced condominiums, street-level shops or restaurants. Craig Robinson, WCMH-TV president and general manager, said a street-level studio will broadcast morning or afternoon news in front of windows that would show Downtown traffic and pedestrians.

I thought the saying goes like this...... Would you rather be "Dayton" a girl from Eaton or "Eaton" a girl from Dayton?

If Brown were alive, watching Ohio teams would kill him Tuesday, September 28, 2004 TODD JONES COLUMBUS DISPATCH Blame the old man. He died 13 years ago and it has been misery for us ever since. Paul Brown cursed us. He could have been kind and provided us something else in his inheritance — such as another NFL team to root for. Instead, the great man left us the two franchises he founded and coached: the Cleveland Browns and Cincinnati Bengals. A perpetual root canal would have been better. Believe it or not, teenagers, the Browns and Bengals were once good, at least when the old man was alive. Since Brown’s death, it has been nothing but broken hearts, unfulfilled promises, failed first-round draft picks, and defeat after defeat after defeat.

Browns 20 Ratbirds 3 :res:

ColDay, you can bite me too :finger: GO BROWNS!!!

Bite me Bungle! :crack:

Well yes, in reality the both suck (well at least the Bungles). And of course this is all in fun so please don't take any offense to what I might say. It's football season, have fun with it. GO BROWNS!!!!

Thanks Magyar, this is an OHIO sports thread and I really do have every right to talk about the best pro football team in Ohio. :stong: Now ColDay, I would think that hypocrisy would not reign from a man of your stature. Don't ever tell me that your chicken bone throwing, over taxed, bandwagon fans from Cincitucky don't have their little nicknames for my beloved Browns. Now I can understand how many of you Bungle fans are feeling a little bit hyped with last years amazing .500 record after 12 miserable and embarrassing losing seasons. I can understand that. I can also understand how confident you must be feeling with what’s virtually a rookie at QB this year. But what I can't understand is how all you fans can just jump on the bandwagon after not supporting your team for over a decade. Oh and please don't forget your last game from last season. Go Browns!!!

Here we go Cleveland, here we go!

In all seriousness... The Bungles looked good but I'm not sold on their defense. Just wait until the Browns unleash #44 Lee Suggs on your ass again!!! GO BROWNS!!!!

Get ready to witness the best tight end to ever play professional football. Get ready to witness the amazing ability of Kellen Winslow II. GO BROWNS!!!

Wow dude. How many miles have you put on your car lately? You seem to have covered just about every little town within a 100 mile radius of Columbus.

G3000 Thanks Rich

Hi Rich, Chris, and the rest of the gang. I moved, got a new email address and a new IP address. I can finally get back on SSP but with a new user name. I want to change this one to the one I'll be using on SSP. Please let me know if this is possible. Thanks, G.

^ I know what you mean about the sometimes part because this is the first girl I've felt this way in about 5 years. I mean, I've dated a lot of girls since my last major relationship and none of them compare to Heather. I just don't know what to say cause this girl has got me twisted. I think my pimpin' days might be over.

I have no idea why i'm telling anybody this but I think I'm in love with a girl named Heather. I'm going nutts trying to keep her off my mind. She is the hottest, sweetest, & smartest girl I've ever been with. I really think she is the one. The funny thing is, we've only been talking to each other for about a week. I think sometimes you just know when you hit the jackpot.

I couldn't agree with you more monte. Remember how I used to bash Dayton back in the day? Now that you've been around the area for a while, do you kind of see what i'm talking about?
