  1. You don’t have to have the same materials as this to have a Juliet balcony. Look at the Welleon for example. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Funny that they included Juliet balconies here but on Bridgeworks it’s off limits. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  3. This is more so just a fun prediction that I opened up to anyone on the forum. If you can find some intel to share though that would be great! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  4. See I don’t want Ballpark village to be viewed as a district. Cleveland has such defined districts that stick true to their name and it causes segregation and they don’t flow well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. This is more of a “in your opinion” question. Besides the Cleveland Clinic development and bulkhead work, what part of this project do you think is best candidate to start “soon”? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. This area is full of single story and single use developments. I would love to see at least some 4 over 1 developments done on this drag. I also would love the land to be split up for multiple developments versus one "mega" project which don't always turn out well. Woodhill Station would be a great model for this area to follow.

  7. If the Guardians Sports betting location followed the rumored path of the Browns and The George Family at Harry Buffalo it would be a lot more successful imo. Progressive field, while a great stadium is built very insular and not designed for outside pedestrian traffic to interact with it. Combine that with the location not being somewhere people think to go to outside of games and concerts it is no surprise that the results are lackluster. That's where the Ballpark villages come into play, it creates a vibrant neighborhood that flows into other neighborhoods and allows other neighborhoods to do the same into it. People will want to hang out before and after games or just go to watch games. Since people are already there they'd be more willing to utilize the sports betting due to convenience. Ballpark village will also be important to other districts that also struggle to attract and/or maintain foot traffic. If it is designed well and creates a seamless flow from 4th street into this area then that could be the blueprint for other areas like PHS to want to create a similar seamless flow.

  8. As long as it is more of a project than "vision" I'm fine with it. We have enough "visions" for this city right now (Ballpark village, Lakefront, riverfront etc.). I would love small consecutive projects because they lead to bigger impact over time. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  9. Yeah it's been under construction for a month or so Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  10. At least make it not ugly Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  11. Cut that Brideworks design for City Club II lol. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  12. This is exactly it. If we saw this scale of project introduced first then we'd be fine with it because it matches the other surrounding buildings. But to go from THREE separate mid/high rise designs to this, hurts. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  13. I said 15-18 because I knew it was in that range. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  14. I always say that Cleveland was on the trajectory of being a mini Chicago, they had similar paths when they were in their boom period. Difference is the leadership in Chicago, while not perfect had the foresight to steer Chicago in the path that led them to being a global city. Cleveland had that chance and instead we fumbled it due to lack of foresight, selfish politics and trying to appeal to what we thought the suburbanites that fled the city would like with urban renewal.

  15. This project continues to get worse every time they redesign it. Like I said this project needs to die and let someone else take a crack at it. This is horrendous in all aspects. I wouldn't have a problem with the size if we weren't shown a tower to begin. If they can't deliver that then keep it. We went from a 15-18 story tower to a 4-5 story abomination.

  16. This type of stuff never bothers me. As cities grow we will always run the risk of losing certain views and that's okay, that's progress. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  17. For a city that doesn't want to merge they sure love spending money on impeachments because they can't find good leaders. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  18. Competition always is good. Dave's was beginning to create a monopoly in the grocery store space and you could tell. First they occupied a lot of former Tops stores, then they bought the Lucky's market in Clifton, then Zagara etc. If Dave's wants to be successful then they will need to find a way to compete. I appreciate that Meijers has been steadily entering the market. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  19. Playhouse square needs to have a draw to the area outside of the theaters. What that is idk but theater goers are such a small demographic, limited to a specific time of day. They also seem to be only interested in going to a show and going home, adding to the dead feel. They need to figure out something that will keep people flowing through the neighborhood day to night. That is why when lumen had such a small retail presence I was confused because it was the perfect time to build something that would be a draw to both residents and visitors.

  20. Honestly I worked for them when they announced the Centennial and I was shocked at the ambition of the project based on what I saw and heard in the office. Sent from my Pixel 7 using Tapatalk
  21. Lets start by me saying this I HATE and I mean HATE the Pittsburgh Steelers. But one thing I will commend them for is their stadium layout. My dad and I recently attended the Browns vs. Steelers game (yes that game) and one thing that impressed me was the experience of walking to their stadium. Leading up to Art Rooney Way they had a MASSIVE team shop at the base of a parking garage with their sports gear, run by Rallyhouse Sports that had massive glass windows and doors making it feel open and airy. I feel that is something that can be replicated here in Cleveland along West 3rd street right by the West 3rd street WFL station. Build a parking garage (to maintain parking on the port parking lot) with the option to add housing later on the existing port lot and move the team shop that has outside access and shift it over there, make it open year round and partner with Ralleyhouse or Fanatics/Lids (Same company) to run it. If they want to add additional commercial space such as a sports bar that would be a bonus but now that area has activity, especially since West 3rd is always packed with fans before and after games. Leading up to entering the Steelers Stadium they have restaurants at the base of the stadium open during games with a pedestrian only street (or at least it was during the game). We can do the same to Al Lerner Way, with how little traffic it gets already it and with it sharing the same road as GLSC and the Rock Hall, close it to car traffic permanently making it a bike and pedestrian only space. Once Al Lerner Way is closed, the Browns renovations should include shifting the Key Club entrance somewhere else and converting that space into a restaurant or other commercial space and the same goes with the (now empty) pro shop. Al Lerner Way being pedestrian only also opens up opportunities to host Browns fan fest events, tailgates and also allows GLSC and the Rock Hall to expand their programming. If all of that is done, now you have the an active space on west 3rd, and reinventing the use of the Key Club and the Pro Shop allows Browns stadium to be used after the season ends in some capacity.
  22. This street would be the perfect spot as a pedestrian and bike only street.
  23. The edges of downtown drops off so dramatically on all sides. You can feel it when your driving around.
