  1. Other than you can't read the text descriptions for the buildings :shoot:
  2. PigBoy is correct. http://www.kurumi.com/roads/interchanges/spui.html http://web.archive.org/web/20021218091949/http://web.mit.edu/spui/www/spui/ list (current as of 2002)
  3. Are we talking about Geneva (see routes above) or Conneaut (Routes 20 and 7)?
  4. Magyar replied to a post in a topic in City Photos - Ohio
    Other than the last photo, the B/W didn't work for me. Modern, exuberant - that's not B/W to me. Otherwise, the composition and structure of the photos were fine.
  5. What's so scary about being the first in-line at a SPUI? Don't hit that concrete square in the middle of the Sawmill Rd. overpass.
  6. Last I checked, you had to cross 4 states to go from Chicago to Pittsburgh. Looks good enough for an interstate highway to me.
  7. I'm going to the Pete Marovich Center Monday night if LSU wins........opps, wrong thread. :evil:
  8. In reference to KJP's artwork, I just let the following documents speak for themselves. The 1944 Cleveland Freeway plan (I can't speak to the history of this map. The other half of roadfan found it) The cleaned-up version of the 1944 plan. The folks who did up this collection of roadways for Cleveland also were the ones who did the original design for the Columbus innerbelt and it's feeder system. ODOT (actually ODH at the time) plan for numbered interstates through Cleveland (not every proposed freeway [from the maps above this one] were to have been part of the federal system (and payment) By 1962, the first commercial images of the proposed highway system were being produced for everyone to see.
  9. Thank you Mr. Nicholson.
  10. And I don't do much of anything north of I-20. At least you could sleepwalk to the location I was asking about (with the risk of being ran over while at it)
  11. Long distances, correct (say Chicago to Pittsburgh) Short distnaces, not so (say Columbus to Delaware)
  12. I've met him too (though he might not remember it). Though it was in a more control environment (some speaker @ OSU Geography), nothing too wild that day.
  13. How did the city envision Jacob Field & Gund Arena to fit within the city's plan to attract residents and keep people within the city (on a nightly basis)?
  14. I got an e-mail this morning saying that the part of the orange cover (see above) of that sign along 3rd St has fallen off. Anyone else seen the highway sign since, or know more about this?
  15. Magyar replied to a post in a topic in Urbanbar
    ^^^Classic! :laugh:
  16. Funny story; back before I left for Louisiana, I attended one of the ODOT(/MORPC?) meetings on the I-70/71 reconstruction projects and I asked several of the reps there why Oh 104 (aka Frank-Refugee connector) was built. None of them could give me an answer.
  17. ^Yeah, everyone is in favor of "capitalism," then when it works against someone, temper-tantrums are thrown.
  18. Sorry, I finished playing graphic designer for the BR Blues Society yesterday, so I haven't moved on to a new project. What font did you use for the Licence plate lettering?
  19. Why yes...how did you guess? Professor Grundy is awesome, I am taking the 3rd class this quarter and looking forward to it I might add. I just love group discussions (this is why I enjoy UrbanOhio) I guess because you mentioned it beforehand. What's discussed/taught in Urban Lobbying?
  20. Magyar replied to buildingcincinnati's post in a topic in Roads & Biking
    And someone has finally stood up for the opposition. http://www.slate.com/id/2138950/
  21. So ColDay, what did you drink last night? 20 beers? Box of Franzia? 10 shots of Tequila?
  22. I guess we could ask "non-citizens" to equally boost every economy. Just like we should ask every citizen and (more importantly) every business to equally boost every economy. :roll:
  23. Too bad we can't post MP3s on here. I have a cajun/swamp pop tune that would describe CD's act tonight. :laugh:
  24. ^ A Big Dig that cost half as much and engineered twice as good?
  25. My new favorite filter on Photoshop (actually another program, but same process)
