  1. That brick definitely tells you Nationwide had its hands in this project! It's ultimately an office park, and I would rather the development focus be on downtown, but it doesn't look bad at all.
  2. Unbelieveable. Columbus has so much momentum going right now! This project really turned out beautifully.
  3. I'll need to see it in person, but it doesn't look that bad from the photos! Better than I expected given the renderings.
  4. Nice, I really liked Pearl Alley when I was a downtown worker. Has a very unique feel within downtown Columbus... not a lot of pedestrian alleys with retail hidden within. I didn't even know it existed until I was a downtown office worker.

    Looks like downtown Ft Wayne has a nice mix of architecture from quite a few eras.
  6. Those subways do not look like a pleasant morning commute! I'm always amazed by two things with Tokyo... the vastness... and the cleanliness.

    Sweetie...If I didn't have to travel I wouldn't. Its what I call "song-and-dance" time! TV Affiliates, movie distributors, local marketers and various partners want to know all about our shows, movies and upcoming publishing schedules. Since its cross divisional, my staff comes up with all these presentations, events and parties based on territory/market. So I have to put on my corporate face and schmooze as I keep telling myself, "be nice, smile, remember no affiliates/partners..no Prada." I had to go to the Embassy to get a leg up on our competitors for the Olympics. You take some popular TV personalities, two swimsuit models and a beloved gold medal winner from the past and bing-bam-boom! Things happen. Quite an elaborate cover the NSA has cooked up for you... ;)

    I think MTS got confused when first signing up for this website and thought it was UrbaneOhio, not UrbanOhio. Do you work for the NSA or something? All this traveling and now visiting embassies? Thanks for sharing your travels!

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yes.
  10. Sorry if this is ground that has already been covered... but the intention is to leave the crown as is? There's not going to be any skin on it?

    Everyone loves a good summertime festival. Didn't realize elephant ears were of Italian origin ;)
  12. Get used to hearing a lot of "Pryor deep to Posey.... TOUCHDOWN!!!"
  13. I would think given Cleveland's proximity to the lake that fresh fish tacos would be a slam dunk!
  14. I think your worries are a bit misplaced. These gourmet food trucks have been popular in LA for quite some time and I rarely, if ever, hear of someone getting sick. These trucks live and die on reputation and that would kill a trucks rep. I've seen those things all over S. Cali and Texas. I'm a neat freak and a germaphobe. I just can't eat from those places. No matter how clean they are, to me they are unsanitary. I can respect that. So now that the truck craze is starting in Cleveland, here's some suggestions for you guys if you're feeling entrepreneurial... these trucks have seen success here in LA: Banh mi (Vietnamese sandwhiches) Korean taco fusion Japadogs (Hot dogs with Japenese flavoring) Gourmet grilled cheese Gourmet cupcakes Groument french fries Crepes The truck I would start in a heartbeat if Skyline franchised in California would be a Coney Dog Truck!

  16. Didn't the Bengals also land Antonio Bryant? That's 3 potentially #1 caliber receivers on the same team.
  17. Surfers are some of the most determined people I know... I'd be willing to bet some of them are out there in the morning during winter. Thanks for sharing!
  18. The old bait and switch! Nice!
  19. If you're going to mess with the utility poles... you gotta go with the burial option. The aesthetic improvement of that alone is profound.
  20. Wow, that's another iconic Columbus restaurant closing down! Seems like there is a changing of the guard in Columbus' high-end restaurant market. First Handke's, now Bexley Monk :(
  21. Aesthetically speaking, one of my favorite neighborhoods in the state.

    Looking good! I'd love to have an opportunity to visit that city again.
  23. I've only seen that area from ground-level. Looks pretty cool from up high, thanks!
