  1. Interesting article which addresses the same concerns in Buffalo. https://medium.com/sidewalk-talk/buffalo-ended-parking-requirements-what-did-developers-do-next-bc97bbc29767
  2. 2275 Scranton Rd. Tremont
  3. Didn't they hold the most recent Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductions held in Cleveland there?
  4. He is a handsome devil!
  5. The chef from there opened Exotic Cuisine in the old Lion’s Pub on Lorain. Serving Jamaican food. Ate there last night. The Oxtail was awesome.
  6. To add on to that, having a hotel/training center in one building could be the most efficient way to go. The hotel could have a large ballroom for general meetings and meals, there would be smaller meeting rooms and breakout areas for more focused training, the "trainees" would be housed in the same building they are being trained in reducing transition times between sessions and events, and these rooms could be booked by the puplic for weddings, benefits or other business conferences with other entities.
  7. Expand downtown to past where Read's Jewelers advertises "We're on the edge of downtown!" at E 13th street. This city could be more spacious. We have a lot of dead former industrial areas that could be developed.
  8. Maybe its not the wrong lot. Maybe they are trying to show the smaller building and left out the one on PS to get a better view.
  9. Couldn’t agree more. Urban neighborhoods should not mimic the suburbs. They should be densely populated where all needs can be met in a 15 minute walk from home. Homes like this only encourage more vehicles and isolation.
  10. Just what that block needs another fast food sandwich shop. Mr. Hero, Subway, and Jimmy Johns all right there already.
  11. i think it wasn't structurally sound
  12. Personally, I still like the original Jenga tower, not just because it is the tallest, but because it is the most unique. Cleveland has such boring derivative architecture.
  13. What was once on the corner of West 3rd and St Clair that they had to build the garage around? That lot is so small, I can’t even think of anything. Gas station?
  14. Could that be protection from the renovations? A sandblaster can clean that stone facade beautifully, but would destroy a stained glass window.
  15. It is a painting that creates a faux hole in the sidewalk. It’s an optical illusion.
  16. Amen brother! You’re preaching to the choir!
  17. I too think this is a horrible idea. The Kamm’s neighborhood could be the next Gordon Square or Ohio City. Instead, it wants a economy based on minimum wage workers selling sandwiches to each other. Just a few miles north, Lakewood, which has a similar demographic and housing stock, is a hip trendy community. Kamm’s needs to tap into that.
  18. Totally agree. Before WKYC and the FBI were there, those bluffs would have made a great location for high rise apartments overlooking the lake. There was talk of moving the FBI to a suburban location, whatever happened with that? I'm not suggesting bulldozing that compound (although it could happen) but reworking the building to have a more urban feel. Also, not far from there is the giant parking lot with the Crazy Horse. A building there would tie the area to downtown.
  19. Beautiful. I just knew they weren't going to leave it as bare concrete!
