It'll be up to the City's Review Board - right? Rubber stamp or legitimately do what is best for the City of Cleveland.

After all is said and done, a tower the height of Stokes or Erieview on PS is nothing to sneeze at. Like it or not @NR, the truth/reality/challenge is, as it has been since the 90s, that Key Tower is and will continue to have such an overwhelming presence on the skyline. When it was being built, with its cranes atop, I was astounded at its height. Similar to the Sohio/BP/200 PS building, height limits should have been imposed.

When first built, I was very impressed with Eaton Center. It was tall, glassy, unique and different than the boxes going up along E. 9th; but that was 50 years ago. It remains one of my favorites in the CBD.

It would be interesting to see a play on a mini Drive-In theater in the Flats. In Miami, empty urban lots are being turned into smaller screen, mini-urban Drive-In theaters that accomodate about 25-50 vehicles, including outdoor seating areas.

A huge disappointment for a Public Square address, but it's their money (except for the massive city, county and state subsidies).

I have to believe that similar to high rises in Miami that are built on pedestals, the garages would be on the interior of the first 8-10 floors, with retail on 1 and offices wrapped around the exteriors of 2 - 10.

Except this is the 2020s, not the 1920s. We now have 200 PS, Terminal Tower and Key Tower on the flanks. Norfolk Southern's campus is very nice in "midtown" ATL. If it were located downtown on Peachtree, that may require a re-evaluation of its appropriateness for that location.

^ 530 ft is the height of Erieview Tower.

Partially agree - PC has done nice work on some of their corporate campuses. That being said however, 20-25 stories is shorter than my Miami condo building, as well as Cleveland's Beacon and Lumen. That would be a huge disappointment for such a high-profile location on PS; to have waited decades to eradicate those unsightly parking lots only to have them replaced by a short, stubby high-rise. A tall building on PS, with associated buildings that step down to the WHD would be more appropriate and I'm sure welcomed by all current and former Clevelanders.

Given the sheer volume of incentives from Brecksville, Cuyahoga County, State of Ohio and JobsOhio, the HQ should be a tall, magnificent jewel.

It is busy, quirky, will require a lot of maintenance and may grow old quickly but it will definitely differentiate it from the other modern, minimalist furnishings of other recently completed residential developments.

^ Long overdue!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Once again, many kudos to Knez Homes! They are almost single-handedly, dramatically changing the urban Cleveland landscape!

...and Superior.

Yes, those are the ones of my childhood memories. Not sure if any of them still exist anymore.

This looks like it was built in the 60's or 70's. Glad this is next door vs the house that looks like it should be a Fire Engine Company. Some streets in the Hough neighborhood used to have apartment buildings that were probably built in the 30s or 40s. They were brick buildings, some with large porches/balconies.

Funny, I haven't heard that term used since I left Cleveland 30 years ago.

It's interesting to see these new apartment developments going into these areas. I remember the apartments that were in the area in the 60s - 70s. Even though they would now be 60 years old, these are such a dramatic improvement over their predecessors.

They dont appear to have basements though; only crawl spaces.

Love this design and so much more complimentary to the existing structure. The accepted proposal may be more acceptable if it at least used glass as the building material, consistent with the existing RRHF building.

I wasn't living in the city at the time, but it seemed like FES was hastily built to keep from losing the team. After Model moved to Baltimore, Municipal Stadium was demolished and JF was built at the old Central Market site, the city needed a football stadium fast or risk losing the franchise permanently.

It may not be well known or acknowledged, but Cleveland has the enviable position of having two I.M. Pei inspired developments (Erieview and RRHF).

It is. I just discovered that it's ranked third behind NYC and Chicago of the US cities having the most skyscrapers. Then again, I think most waterfront cities are beautiful; NYC, Barcelona, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, San Diego, Sydney, Toronto, Hong Kong, Vancouver, Dubai, even Pittsburgh and my hometown too! There's something about the interaction of land, water and the man-made structures against the topography and refections on the water surfaces that make them intriguing. I think one of the best views of downtown Cleveland is up East 9th Street from North Coast Harbor. SW HQ will dramatically change this image. https://images.app.goo.gl/8epYw5EwKvogobNz7

I live across the street from Miami Worldcenter. Despite the inherent dust (and there's a lot of it), if the design of the SW HQ is anything like the Pickard Chilton-designed building going up in Miami Worldcenter, it is guaranteed to be impressive, inspirational and iconic; in very good company, such as 1000 Museum from the late Zaha Hadid. While they appear to be a favorite in Kuala Lumpur, Atlanta and Houston, an additional design in NEO is welcome. Take that PPG! https://www.pickardchilton.com/work/one-worldcenter

I hope so! I have to say, I am just so sick of the BS from these legislators.
