I don't know much about soccer, but it seems reasonable that a MLS Next Pro team, especially an independent one in a relatively major market like ours, could eventually be upgraded to full MLS status. Especially as the sport grows in popularity. Every major city around us has a MLS team already- Columbus, Detroit, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati. I think Indianapolis has a USL team. Also, do MLS and NFL teams share stadiums? And if so, could this be a part of the Haslams plan for a new Browns stadium? It sounds like there's already some relationship between the Haslams and the new MLS owner.

The zipline at the MLB All Star game (2018?) was a lot of fun!

Who wouldn't love a view of the backside of that billboard? Lol

Did I hear correctly? Biden to visit Lorain "shipyards" during his visit tomorrow? Who knows, it could be to make some sort of an announcement.

Awesome! So the entire tower will be operated by Marriott?

I agree. That was my thought as well, but then there is this pie chart showing that the Bartlett Corp is focused on two dry docks and a depot...

https://www.bartlettmaritime.com/ Jw, why does their site say full implementation of "the plan" would mean 41,000 jobs?🙃

another thought: bringing the subs to the interior for repair probably lessens their exposure to attack.

No doubt this is the best economic news our of Lorain county in memory. https://www.bartlettmaritime.com/ Check out these employment figures of the other four Navy shipyards. Leads me to believe 3-4k jobs could grow significantly over time. I agree that on the surface this sounds politically motivated, but maybe they are after the underutilized skilled trade labor found in our part of the world. They cite a shortage of skilled labor as one of the major problems the industry faces.

Big news: https://www.morningjournal.com/2022/01/27/mayor-jack-bradley-u-s-navy-yard-could-locate-in-lorain/ An agreement to bring a U.S. Navy repair facility could open this year in Lorain if the White House approves the plan, said Lorain Mayor Jack Bradley. If the project gets the nod from President Joe Biden, groundbreaking could begin in October and will add between 3,000 and 4,000 jobs to the city, Bradley told reporters Jan. 27 during a news conference on the Zoom platform.

Turn the bridge into an elevated park with public elevators/stairs on either end.

Enjoy. Found these posted to a group I follow on Facebook. Taken from Key yesterday.. Source

And he paid 248,200 for it about four years ago...

it's safe to say impact of these projects together would nearly equal that of shw hq. 22 off to a great start! The peices are really coming together now.

Dayuuum! I love it!
