  1. Not that it adds a significant number of jobs to the total, but Euclid actually has two Amazon facilities. There is a FLEX operation on Bluestone and it employs roughly 50 people (just a wild guess from what I've physically seen there since it opened almost three years ago). I imagine whatever number of jobs are at that location might be the same number as at the FLEX location in Twinsburg. Euclid serves almost all of Northeast Ohio. From Ashtabula to Lorain and as far south as Akron. Twinsburg is a smaller operation delivering mainly around the I-80 corridor. There is also FLEX center in Canton which also delivers Amazon Fresh (currently the only on in NE doing so). Since these new locations are, according to the Crain's article, smaller than the main distribution centers, My guess is that they will take some of the stress from the Euclid location for delivery to points west and will solidify the introduction of Amazon Fresh and Amazon Restaurant Delivery (maybe) to the Cleveland and surrounding areas.
  2. Did a dry cleaner used to be located on this site? That's what the chemical mentioned in the article (tetrachloroethylene) is mainly used for.
  3. ^Did you read the article? It talks about this.
  4. No. They are not moving the offices.
  5. A couple of responses not already touched on in the article: Opening night has been held at the Conner the past two years and were both sold out (iirc) Parking is always an issue - particularly during events like Indians Home Opener (ugh) There will actually be more parking in the same general footprint available for PSQ than at TC (CSU and other lots) We already have plans worked out for ticket holders vs. standby that have worked out just fine whenever we have had the neighborhood showings, so this is not a problem - and if there is a problem, we will tweak it just like we do every year Generally - suburbanites complain about everything ?
  6. Yes. They will close, but it might not be permanent. The staff at TCC are being told there will be renovations bring the theaters up to what current modern theater seating is like. However, this is only from the staff that work there - not management.
  7. I really thought there was a thread for this already - surprised there is not. Regardless, here we go.... Cleveland International Film Festival to move to Playhouse Square, leave Tower City in 2021 The curtain is coming down on the Cleveland International Film Festival at Tower City Cinemas. After 30 years in the downtown theater complex, the festival is moving to a new, permanent home for its 2021 fest and beyond. But not just any home. CIFF will be calling the city’s premier entertainment district home: Playhouse Square. It was a move born of necessity, but one that should reap huge benefits for the festival, Playhouse Square — and downtown. “Every year, we have had this uncertainty hanging over us with the future of Tower City,” says executive director Marcie Goodman. “We formed a committee way back in 2007 to start to look for options if we had to leave the theaters. This committee was busy for 12 years, and we visited every possible location. We always wanted to stay downtown if possible, but there really didn’t seem to be any option for that. “Then last year we started hearing all of these stories about CityBlock and how that was going to impact the mall.” Construction on CityBlock, a $110 million renovation of Tower City Center into a shared entertainment/entrepreneurship/lifestyle space, is slated to begin this year at the mall; Bedrock director of communications Gabrielle Poshadlo said there is “no update at this time” on a possible start date. “We were told there would be a lot of construction in the public spaces,” says Goodman. “We use those. … And we started thinking we would have to spread out like other festivals.” Then she had a fateful meeting with a friend, one who happens to be Playhouse Square’s president and CEO. “Last January, Gina Vernaci and I were having lunch, and the talk turned to the festival and Tower City and our struggles,” says Goodman. “And she said, ‘What about Playhouse Square?’ ” MORE: https://www.cleveland.com/life-and-culture/j66j-2020/01/ba6f995acc776/cleveland-international-film-festival-to-move-to-playhouse-square-leave-tower-city-in-2021-.html
  8. Cool, because it is coming down. As soon as the new high school is complete.
  9. I wonder if it is too late to consider these soon to be available 17 acres of fairly clean land here in Euclid.

  11. I haven't seen anything directly related to the Cleveland location and I cannot recall if this location is one that is run by Kroger Lucky’s Closing 32 Stores, Laying Off Associates In what appears to be a developing story, on the heels of The Kroger Co.'s decision to divest its interest in Lucky’s Market, the Boulder, Colo.-based natural food retailer is apparently planning to shutter as many as 32 of its 39 stores in 10 states and lay off the staffs of the affected locations, according to a burst of social media messages, various local news reports and a source with knowledge of the matter.

  12. Does anyone know what ever happened to the steel and glass tree-like Objet d'art? I liked them and was under the impression they would return at some point... somewhere. But what do I know, ya know?
  13. No, no.... and, no. I said "likely"
  14. They won't likely be closing until after... wait, let me check something... March 25 - April 5

    LOL Well, I do also watch Marvelous Mrs. Maisel with Mrs. Musky when she is not working night shift We also watch together Man in the High Castle. There are plenty of other shows I want to watch. I'm just leary of getting hooked on something only to have it cancelled. So I recently decided to wait until the show has run its course before starting it - that's not written in stone though.

    I enjoyed it. It was nice to have some loose ends be tied up. In fact, I think everything was put to rest except how the rest of the White family may have recovered - understanding, of course, this movie was not about them. I think they could have played more into the PTSD role then was shown in the first part of the movie. I took me watching the movie to actually realize the show was not necessarily about Walter's downward spiral and its effect on those around him, but rather it really was about Jesse and his journey.

    Just started Breaking Bad around Thanksgiving and just finished it and El Camino this past weekend. Very nice American tragedy storytelling; disturbing and at times uncomfortable, but nice nonetheless.
  20. Love it!!!! To the naysayers (there are always naysayers), the finished product never looks like the renderings. So, breath.

  23. I wasn't talking about moving the cemetery at all. Just thinking about how development surrounding the cemetery would create a mini-central park appearance.
