  1. Meant to post this a few days ago.
  2. I try to look at the Glass half full for the RTA but this organization really doesn't want to progress, just maintain the status quo. We can't even do simple things right.
  3. MyPhoneDead replied to a post in a topic in Forum Issues/Site Input
    Will there be another forum app that we can use? I love using my phone to access the forum but I do not like the mobile or desktop version.
  4. Our downtown is split between height or density, no in between lol. Great shot though.
  5. The worry about deliveries for businesses etc. is why I feel that Cleveland could do a much better job utilizing it's alley system like Chicago. I wish it was a city wide system but I know Ohio City and Glenville has some. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  6. Chicago has a stretch of Townhomes near their Downtown that gives me hope of how these will look with the surrounding urban fabric in the future. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  7. Yes it is, near the East Cleveland border. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  8. We have action on 125th street Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  9. I love those so much, they actually look like they fit an urban landscape versus the other options Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  10. Tbh I love this Track, idk what it is but I like it a lot more than the traditional track 8. Maybe it's how compact it is, or maybe they lighting. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  11. Can we do a study on having it run beyond 7 PM? I would love to ride it to the flats one day [emoji849] Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  12. Did you mean The W? Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  13. The complaints from businesses are too bad so sad. We have to go through this transition period to begin our shift in focus on how we traverse those neighborhoods. It has to start somewhere and we have to rip this bandaid off eventually. If this is the same street I'm thinking of, it is EXTREMELY tight and makes no sense to be a two way street as is. I watch urban YouTube channels that actually covered the topics of closing streets to traffic and a lot of the examples they showed had positive upticks in traffic.

  14. I would love something on the eastern edge of Downtown to balance out the height and preferably on St.Clair. That street could use an injection of life Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  15. Quote from the article sums it up completely. "We're not leaving Northeastern Ohio, OK? That's for sure. Our preference is to be on the lakefront, but you've got to see how things play out." Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  16. Hopefully this bucks the trend of so many East Side projects and actually breaks ground. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  17. Close Burke (I know, I know), build the new stadium there and surround it with hotels, residential and amenities and free up the remaining lakefront land where the old stadium sits for family oriented amenities and tourist attractions. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  18. I've wondered about the timing of the purchase, mixed with the recent news of Cleveland trying to land the NWSL, and him already being an owner of the Crew. This could be a ballpark village for that, long shot but possible. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  19. "Another mayor that lost the Browns"....that is not nearly the same, the Browns will still be in the County/Region in Brookpark IF they leave, and that still is a ways to go on a decision. The Browns under Mike White left the entire state and that was due to Art Modell just wanting to leave. Some of you all are being EXTREMELY dramatic. DustinFox or pointing out the glass half empty view of Justin Bibb as seemingly always happens with him also forgot to mention the Cross Country Mortgage move, The North Coast Harbor non-profit idea to draw new funding sources, Canon Healthcare, Shore to Core proposal (currently held up by council), Bedrock Riverfront work getting started etc. Medical Mutual had already been gone from Downtown after COVID essentially, and GLBC looking for new digs is not a done deal and still has a possibility of staying especially since Mayor Bibb has allocated money to clean up land that can be used for projects literally like the GLBC. What you have is a mayor reimagining Cleveland right now and yes the city has taken losses but we've also seen tangible and creative ideas that we haven't seen before with ACTUAL steps being taken towards it. That is something we haven't seen in a loooooong time. Add on the 15 minute city initiative and the redoing of Cleveland's parking code to encourage more TOD, the 15 million dollars designated for the Southeast Side etc. He's done a nice amount of good in the 2-3 years he's been in office for a city that had been regressing under inept leadership for the past 60-70 years. I might sound like a Bibb homer but I just can't sit up here and have people act like he hasn't been doing tons more work in a short amount of time that Mayors who had multiple terms never even cared to do. Is he perfect? No but he is doing a lot more work to make Cleveland a complete city than other mayors have by far and has been working to get Cleveland in the national spotlight. If the Browns left the city (which isn't a done deal) it would be a blow but the city would be alright we did alright in the 90s when they left because we focused on increasing the quality of other neighborhoods and we'd do it again. Only time will tell, the Browns have a long time and a lot of negotiating to do. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  20. The thing is this. If he secures funding for the Brookpark stadium and it has a lot of private funding (I doubt Brookpark can swing this on their own), then why couldn't he do the same for Cleveland Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  21. At this point I don't care. If they move here the positive is that it would free up land to use for other things to create a true neighborhood (Navy Pier like). Also since the businesses couldn't depend on the Browns for business I feel that it will force Cleveland to think outside the box and reignite these underutilized/declining neighborhoods such as the Lakefront and the WHD. Sometimes I do feel like when you know that you have a certain revenue stream coming in (in this case the Browns Games) people start getting comfortable and content and aren't motivated to do much else.

  22. Idk where I saw that this building on cedar was proposed to be demolished. The confusion for me comes from this building looking like work has been done and continues to be done to it. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
  23. 40 oz and some scratch offs?? Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk
