Atleast one thing good about this whole millenial thing is the memes. This is about Millenials killing the Fabric Softener industry. I'm 20 born in 1998 so I guess that makes me a Z? I have no idea, because most sources on the internet are misconstrued on when the generations end. MULTIPLE sources state multiple ending years, so i'm kind of reasonably confused between Millenial and Gen Z. I even made a name for Gen Z. I call us Ints, as we are born on the internet and so comfortable with social media. Is it fair to say that Ints and Millenials are sort of the same grouping? We have a larger Cohort than both Millenials and Boomers, but yet we have parents of both X and Millenials, yet Ints tend to be more conservative than Millenials. When Millenials take over i'm sure Ints will do anything in their power to fix the Millenial mess. I'm not proud of our American demographic today, as media is growing more biased against Millenials, the Ints are slowly growing up with no problems at all. Our parents are paying for our college, helping start out our lives, and teaching us how to be quality moderate people. I'm not speaking for everyone in the Int population, but with the peers and friends growing up there is little talk of P.C., rather we joke about things like oppression and tragedy. We are a generation of stone, and we keep one hell of a poker face out of this war between Allies X and Boomers vs the Axis Millenials. But yet the cycle continues. Back in colonial times, only the rich and famous could go to school leaving only them in control, in the 1800's education was constructed a human right, universities and public schools popped up everywhere, 1900's come along with Daddy Warbucks and segregation, only whites could have education, Jim Crowe laws ended and so enacted civil rights where other demographics were allowed quality education, college costed a dime in the 70's-80's-early 90's, and nowadays college is only for risky oppressed Millenials. The cycle continues. Having only gone through one year of college, I don't want to put a financial burden on my parents, but they're helping me get my life together. However I dropped out, seeking FREE TUITION in the Air Force. People think there's only one way to live life. I say you're wrong, because there are an infinite stream of possibilities you can do. The modern peer pressure is to not do drugs, to finish high school, and go to college. It's not that we're choosing this path, we're more forced into an instant path of debt, both by our peers, our parents, and our schools. As an Int I definitely feel some struggles of Millenials, but i'm no entitled PC POS. Big money has started an internal conflict with older / younger Americans. I'm not saying College should be free, but rather open new government opportunities to subsidize higher education. Minimum wage is too low, but there's nothing you can do about it, as you raise Min, inflation goes up, and so does everyone else's wage, so there's no impact on the system. Another Problem is that companies demand that you have a degree to hire. But before the 90's there was no such requirement as there is plenty on the job training. But nowadays you are just thrown into your workspace and are expected to know everything right off the bat. You ought to be out of your minds. Sidenote/Footer: I'd like to keep this forum clean, because there are alot of chain replies, if you have something to discuss from my view by an even younger standpoint, please use a small snippet.

Yes I love music, I listen to the Wreck of Edmund Fitzgerald every day.

Is it fair to say that Akron is a Cleveland Exurb, considering we share the Cuyahoga? Even just a little?

I think this video goes more in depth with the technical aspect of the place. *Warning* It's LinusTechTips, so it may be nerdy af.

The place runs off an honor system. If you take items from location you can go to your receipt on amazon and submit a refund. I'm not paying $9.00 for a sammich.

doubt there will ever be any more of gladiators, but that's a convo for the sports page.

Yep, looks like crane foundations. Just got done watching the full timelapse of excavation, looks like they have 9 pretty large sunk foundations in the soil.

Bummed the D in the CLEVELAND mural doesn't encompass the Monsters.

I think we could potentially put this thread in the "DEAD" section, until there's another inside I guess.

I just wanted to take my time to share some personal news. I'm joining the military, and more in particular the Air Force. I've enlisted and have been sworn in this past Friday afternoon circa 4:00. (16:00 for those service members who are probably going to rip me a new one if I don't use military) I don't know my MOS or my ship date yet, but I have some really good military connections as NCO's that can put in a recommendation for my desired position as an Aerospace Propulsion Technician. More than likely I will be put in that area, but based on the circumstances right now, since I don't have an MOS, my ship date is set somewhere between January and February. Luckily Basic training is in Texas, also at the perfect season, so I'll be in Ohio spring weather if not, better. Are there any seasoned Air Force vets that can possibly give me some pointers or lookouts so i'm prepared? So, I know I'm not a seasoned veteran on Urban Ohio although I check this website religiously, I know I will be with the United States Air Force. Contracting for 6 years with an auto E-3 AFC grade. Possibly going for my bachelors and going through OCS to one day become a pilot and retire with 20 years under my belt. Alright Cleveland, by the time I get out, I want the skyline to be unrecognizable. And by that, I mean more buildings. Bigger buildings.

tbh it adds quite a bit of history if you think about it. If they finished it you wouldn't really be complaining about it would you? It's also a great discussion for politics if you would.

I really don't like that version, It encompasses old ideas that have no chance of being ever completed. Instead have this one with the 'current new' up and coming. Whenever 515 gets finished I would like to volunteer MayDay to retake the picture to meet current changes, alot has actually been done since 2009, and it's a great photo op.

Unless stated nothing has been wiped off the board. Whereas nothing has been told as of yet. I don't understand where people are getting their news from but if it's not a public report it never happened. My 'speculation' is that since costs of construction are rising, maybe they'll scratch the alley idea. But I'm not sure why Stark would do such a thing, it's more money quicker with more tenants, and probably more business from the residents in the tower. I'd approach a project of this size in phases, and not really go for the gusto. I'd demolish the current garage, and build the newer larger garage in phase I, begin work on the offices phase II, and then build the tower upon existing structure and refurbish the alleyway in phase III. This way you're at least making money and cutting your losses if something does fall through. Once one phase has made its money, start with the next.

I'm sure they'll incorporate it later on when they have funding. I don't think it was wiped off the board just yet, but the option is there if they get the funding they originally needed.

At this rate, I guess I fail to see how its a two summer long project. Are they still doing demo?

Glad to see that the focus is moving out of the core of Cleveland, some places just need it more.

I'm not sure if It's Parma or Brooklyn but it's right across from Brookpark Road and Ridge Road Where Kmart used to be. The entirety of that old Super Kmart were ripped down a few years ago, Word is that it's being rebuilt as a Menards. Construction is already underway on the lot, glad I wont be looking at an empty eyesore driving down Brookpark anymore.

If they're taking a break "It may just happen in the future"...

This would be a great opportunity to spruice up E 4th a bit, it's a location that loathes parking.

NuCleus is in a more marketable spot and actually more fortunate for being right in front of E. 4th and both the ol' Gund and Jacob's Field.

12 story office building as well. Not bad!

Man that makes me very happy, I cant wait to see the latest renderings. The way they incorporate the foliage on the building is a "Green light" to me.

First foundations to be lay in october if I'm right, correct me if i'm wrong? There's still some extra site prep they need to do before they methodically pile drive.

I don't like this glass modern architecture. It's so mundane, the only originality in the structure is the shape it takes on. The facades don't tell any kind of a story.

I am fine with the mid-rise too though. Well its more for the businesses below, If you just have shopping and food, people will drive, but if it's right below you, then it's just a better business model.
