  1. +CLE will not be taking the corner spot at E4th and Euclid. THey are the storefronts west of that space.
  2. The UH building is still waiting for the last pieces of cladding on the upper levels. Just a shade over 2 years to finish that area...
  3. I don't know where to begin...
  4. Totally agree KJP. Also, I say we tear down the Market for more parking...
  5. Then you would have hated E4th pre 1989...
  6. No offense, but I think that sign is hideous.

    Also, the entire city was developed as an east / west city. Until the 1950's the steel mills in Cuyahoga Heights were basically the southern edge of the metro population. There aren't many north/south streets that are considered main thoroughfares outside of Ontario, E9th, E55th, E105th, W25th, West Blvd. W117th
  8. So many great things about that last photo...
  9. I'm not sure I agree with everyone's thinking that Cleveland will lose people because of the foreclosure issue. I mean, when your house forecloses in a bad neighborhood it's not as if you get to move to the suburbs or another part of the country. Where does everyone think these people skipped off to? Avon Lake, Charlotte, Austin? You have fewer options and less mobility when a house forecloses. It's more likely that they end up in public housing no? I do think we will lose near 50,000, though...

    What a shame... Pfff...
  11. The bridges stay open in the summer time to allow all ships to come through, only delayed by trains. Not sure it has that has impact on restaurants...
  12. RTA needs to get off its high horse on the Public Square issue. In the end, do they really have any say in how the Square is reconfigured? The city can really do whatever they want outside of affecting the federal right of way for route 6 no?
  13. Does anybody else think that Calabresse doesn't fight the state hard enough for these funds?
  14. If so, the jackknife bridge still next to the swing bridge but "stuck" in the up position. The current jack knife bridge replaced the bascule bridge shown in the photo. Maybe in the 1950's?
  15. ... mere details when talking about the rebuilding of a large part of a city...
  16. He's a couple images of the Multimodal Transit Terminal our team came up with. I'll try to get the aerials of the overall plan, but you can kinda get the idea here. First view is basically from near the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. The Shoreway is buried at this point but you can see it emerging with its current incline to the west. The idea was to deal with the Shoreway as it currently exists and take advantage of its status as a major regional connection. The rail station basically exists below it. To the left is a park and beyond that an extension of the urban fabric cascading north from the courthouse, city hall, and Mall C (from W3rd to E9th). Liberties were taken with additions to the Cleveland skyline of course... Second image shows what you would see while driving on the Shoreway. Behind that view is direct access to a multilevel parking garage and bus station. Third image is a cross section (west to east) through the rail station, parallel to the tracks. W3rd is to the left of the, with the previously mentioned park to the right. The roof is considered a public park which begins and Huntington Park and rises up to a peak at Alfred Lerner Way and Wrd to catch Lake Erie sunsets and skyline vistas. More to come.......
  17. I was part of a team that developed such an idea during the 2009 Cleveland Design Competition, however, the multimodal transit terminal served as the knuckle of the project at the corner of Summit Ave and W3rd Street. I hope to get some images on here today or tomorrow to further this discussion.

    The mills on the south side of the innerbelt bridge, good stuff.
  19. #29 is on Woodbine, behind Fulton Foods. Ohio City. #30 is the courtyard of City Hall
  20. I just saw him in WRL this morning. Unfortunately I didn't see this article until this afternoon.
  21. They should really just wipe the whole west bank clean aside from the bridges, powerhouse, and other non garbage structures, and start there instead of trying to develop the lakefront...
  22. Don't expect the building that is next to Viking hall to stand for too much longer. Heard a bad rumor.
  23. I just went through that guys flickr set today as well. It. Is. Sick. The image quality is amazing also. The one showing the southside of Prospect at E4th is just unreal. And the Roxy, so sleazy. And awesome.
  24. Seoul Hot Pot is also Korean right? That's been there for quite some time.
