  1. There's simply too much new development to count but "The Next Miami" is a great source. I just wish my hometown had even a quarter of the development that's going on in S. Florida.
  2. I love this project and what it can mean for the historically and culturally-significant, yet struggling, Westside Market. I used to shop there (occasionally Central Market too before Gateway) when I lived in Lakewood and always looked forward to the experience.
  3. ^ And once again, while initially at the forefront of getting a project on the board, Ohio is going to fall behind.
  4. The amount of TMUD, if any, may determine which version of Nucleus makes it through.
  5. The jenga-like tower appears to be the current trend in architecture. NYC has at least one, Chicago has one, Austin, TX has one and Miami is building one; they're in development globally. https://www.thenextmiami.com/98-story-supertower-waldorf-astoria-hotel-and-residences-miami-will-launch-sales-in-march/
  6. Granted it was 35 years ago, but at that time the only condos close to the CBD were on the Gold Coast in Lakewood. I had one and kinda reverse commuted to UC. I would think that the market should support condo development in the core.
  7. I would think that a restaurant, dry cleaners, liquor, convenience or drug store (Non-CVS; isn't there a CVS on 9th near St. Clair?), at a minimum, would have the potential to be successful. Also, once the Centennial is remediated, more area residents should make that retail space more attractive.
  8. Not sure, but it sounds like they have done more than their initial due diligence if they're selling off multi-million dollar Miami properties. I think that would tend to indicate that they're preparing to make a move.
  9. Not so sure about this statement, after all, Miami is Miami and people flock to and will continue to flock to S. Florida from all over the world. That is, provided global warming doesn't submerge us. The article does confirm however that there are current investment opportunities for expansion of Cleveland's (and Detroit's) urban condo market; both markets are currently ripe for condo development.
  10. ^ Short-term, the Miami condo market is over built; there's simply too much available inventory, but it's cyclical. South Florida has undergone a tremendous building boom over the past ten years. Miami is now listed as #3 in skyscrapers behind NYC and Chicago. Most have been condos/mixed use, including my own. https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/us-cities-with-the-most-skyscrapers.html Now its time for Cleveland and Detroit to reap those same benefits; especially when it comes to the urban condo market, as short-term, S. Florida's time has passed.
  11. Miami's high condo inventory and decreasing unit prices causes Spider to divest itself of Edgewater and Miami Beach properties to set its sights on significant upside potential in Cleveland and Detroit. https://therealdeal.com/miami/2021/03/12/spider-nixes-plans-for-edgewater-condo-project-disposes-of-dev-site-for-7m/
  12. ^ Who's arguing? Sounds like you and I are in agreement. Some people however, prefer to be contentious and their content is ignored; that's simply who they are.
  13. ^ This is spot on, including short-to-intermediate term for SW site.
  14. When I was last in Cleveland (Summer 2019), it was so enjoyable to walk through the FEB, grab lunch, a few cocktails and watch the activity on the river. This will just expand the experience. It was a dramatic difference from the Flats of the 1970s-80s. I do miss Sammy's though.
  15. I still think it was a shame that the Hanna Fountains were removed from the Mall. Before they were removed, there was so much more activity on the Malls.
