Cleveland: Ohio City: Development and News
Darn. Perhaps wishful thinking on my part. Its a perfect location for a more dense use with a larger lot and Bridge ct directly behind for access. Oh well ?

I'm leaning towards multifamily based on the footprint but its hard to tell. Surely someone on here knows more? Sorry my phone decided to get cute and do some construction barrel bokeh!

Cleveland: West Side Market News & Info
If your experiencing huge lines and out of stock stuff at the grocery stores... I just got back from the Market and they had everything you could imagine/want. Not many people there. And the vendors were very appreciative for the support.

Anyone know anything about Sainato signs in ground floor windows of the Rockefeller building?

^Agree, and it's nice to see Harbor Inn lives.

Cleveland: Tremont: Development and News
They should get rid of that huge 90 entrance at 25th/Barber and maybe extend Vega from 25th through to Scranton.

Cleveland: Outlet Mall Proposal for Lakefront
You guys are brutal! I don't think this is as cut and dry as some are all making it. I'm glad we have elected officials looking into the full impact which includes some long term planning. Let's see what comes of the upfront infrastructure talk as well as a legit end of life discussion because we have to be honest with ourselves that single use mall complexes are extremely fragile. We have the luxury of being able to see these same scenarios play out the past 40 years and they almost never end well. Mayday posted a link to an article in the retail thread that explored a concept that I mentioned up-thread about building stable, easy to retool structures the traditional way. https://www.strongtowns.org/curbside-chat-1/2015/12/22/traditional-development Of particular importance in the video is the part about later needing public grant money to deal with the fall of the complex i.e. large sums to demolish the structure. We have to be more conscience of the liabilities we are taking on long term not just the immediate impact.

As far a being two story, "brick" along Lorain they are. The middle proposal was the realitve oddball.

Greater Cleveland RTA News & Discussion
In my experience it has become way more reliable since about fall last year compared to rest of 2019. I have been using for the airport a lot, sometimes for the early 5 am departures and late night arrivals. No issues.

Greater Cleveland RTA News & Discussion
Right. If you want a dedicated transit lane you'll have to get rid of the on street parking here. If not, then you will what you have now. Personally, I think it makes sense for dedicated transit lane because not only do you have the 25th line but also, what 4 other lines that use this corridor. Considering that though, it couldn't be designed exactly like the healthline is.

Greater Cleveland RTA News & Discussion
You're on the RTA board of trusties and claim existing automobile congestion as a deterrent to implementing a mass transit solution. I thought that's the very reason you would explore something like this. ?

I love the colorized photos this guy does

Cleveland: Outlet Mall Proposal for Lakefront
Agree, but how is this proposed development any different? (please no one say because they are outlet stores!) It's a one use structure, it goes against the traditional development pattern we usually praise in a forum like this.

Cleveland: Downtown: Justice Center Complex Replacement
If a tear down is the route taken, I wonder if all that nice granite could be saved and used for something else. Probably cost prohibitive though.

https://www.clevescene.com/scene-and-heard/archives/2020/01/20/end-of-the-line-for-petersons-nuts-on-carnegie No more Petersons ? I haven't been there in years. I'm sure they would have done much better business if they were in a more central downtown location.

Cleveland: Downtown: The Beacon
I walked in the path of this pic being taken today. I felt bad, but when I looked back the guy was still at it, trying to get the primo shot... at that point I thought it for sure was an UO friend, becuase we demand only the best here ?

Ridiculous Density
@Toddguy You should visit ? Give time to adjust and settle in. 5 hours on a cruise ship stop is not enough. If you still find the blocks too big you can always go to the old city.

Cleveland: Downtown: Sherwin-Williams Headquarters
Which may factor into the possible SW recruitment issues that we have discussed here. In my field (IT) I ask a lot of my colleagues looking to move if they have checked SW and they either say, "oh I forgot about them" or even "they are located here" (most of the time that's the cle transplants). Point is, marketing maters. Both for recruitment and products sales. This is sometimes achieved by a HQ building(s).

I hope they at least make it easier to get a bike through there.

Off Topic
I don't know if it will go lower but I have been looking at same sony model as well as LG C9. This Sony was $2,800 a few months ago when I was perusing Bestbuy. Another 2-3 hundred would be quite the mark down from earlier this year for OLED tech. I'm in a position that I can wait and see. But I still can't wrap my head around that much money for a TV. I forgot to mention that the bestbuy sales rep was telling me they have financing but if pay up-front they will take 10% off of the pretax total. @jmecklenborg
