Peruvian, huh? I'm always up for new things. And thanks for keeping this on topic.

I like the honeycomb reference. I can visualize all of the busy county worker bees buzzing into work. Of course, when they are there, it will be cleaner and not so moldy looking.

The bridge between the East Parking Garage and the Rec Center went up today. Photos later (monday.

Found this shot of one of my favorite buildings on Flickr.

I think he is talking about the West Shoreway downgrade. This will end at the West 25/28th street area. The Boulevard from there east to Deadman's Curve has not been funded at all, but is not dead. It is just waiting. I think this is the portion that is currently being discussed in the Pescht thread. Boy, all of this transportation talk has made me hungry. Any new restaurants opening around downtown I can visit?

The concept of College Town is still alive. But the conceptual plans brought forht by a certain local city architecture firm are no longer in consideration due to their be fired by the university. (read =)

From todays PD Editorial section:

Aw, man. That was fast. I thought I would have people going on that one for a while, what with the ivy crucifix being so distracting. Good job. :clap:

I saw a bunch of white guys at this intersection :-D And on the other side... :|

Ok, here is my first one.

Norton's Furniture = The Film Building

Try looking east, across the valley

Dr. Richard Klien (Ph.D., History, University of Akron and part time prof at Levin) told us during one of our classes about two guys who wanted to make Cleveland a movie making city back in the day. They decided to move to Cali because of the winters here. This was before hollywood. The two guys were named... you guessed it, Warner. I had always thought the Keith Building was there intended headquarters, but have since learned it was the Film Building. I could not find anything about this story in the Encyclopedia of Cleveland History, though... so I do not know.

You know, the only reason I knew was because I was on the Mather roof yesterday taking... pictures. But not of the roof. Does that mean I get to put a picture up? Or, do I have to guess all of them. What are the rules anyway? It seems like a free-for-all.

Attention artist! Here is your inspiration:

Tables, Chairs and planters coming in today! The last bits of furniture that still need to be delivered are some fancy-schmancy benches that will not be here until mid-september, LCD TV's (also running behind due to a contractor's bidding mistake), equipment for the smoothie station (near the front door) and a custom made carpet - also for the front door area. It looks good now, but a problem has already been identified with the equipment facing west on the second and third levels. The windows are not tinted, nor are there shades to help block some of the late afternoon sun. It gets very warm in there very quick. Thew will likely purchase the type of shades you see in restaurants that still allow a view, although it will not be purchased right away.

I wonder if the reporter knows that Cleveland was where the Warner Brothers started. Wasn't it the Film Building?

#1 is Mather Mansion That's the only one I thinkI know.

CPI Rocks! Best views in the city. So I've heard

Don't forget about the subway... and the elevated version.

^Good point. That would absolutely count as a creative way to control growth. So now everyone needs to purchase up the remaining farmland in Medina County and donate it to the Conservancy. Meanwhile, I saw this article on CBS.com. Interesting 'analysis' of the latest census numbers. Census: Diversity Growing In 49 States WASHINGTON, Aug. 15, 2006(AP) By Melissa McNamara America's growing diversity has reached nearly every state. From South Carolina's budding immigrant population to the fast-rising number of Hispanics in Arkansas, minority groups make up an increasing share of the population in every state but one, according figures Tuesday by the Census Bureau. "This is just an extraordinary explosion of diversity all across the United States," said William Frey, a demographer at the Brookings Institution, a Washington think tank. "It's diversity and immigration going hand in hand." West Virginia is the exception, with its struggling economy and little history of attracting immigrants... http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/08/15/national/main1895117.shtml

Great shots. I can see my head in the second photo. I'm near the closest ballon thingy at the door. I have pics too, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

As much as I agree there should be some sort of smart growth/growth boundary/whatever in the region, the recent actions of late from state supreme courts across the nation make this a very unlikely concept to gain traction in Ohio. Somebody somewhere is going to cry that by restricting growth (that is, not allowing a developer to purchase land from a farmer for a new subdivision) the government is actually 'taking' the value of their land. We need to think of some new creative way to institute a growth management policy, or a clever way to market the old ones.

I just found out. I guess all I had to do was ask. The new Campus Food Service, AVI, will run the deli.

At the last Planning Commission meeting, they sought approval for the streetscape plan and implied that the grocery store entrance was still going to be brought to the street. A big part of the plan was to close the pass-through portion of the building to the public and have everything at street level. This was last week - wouldn't they have to come back to the commission if there were changes to the plan?
