    it also depends on your friends too, i mean ive taken some of my friends who live here due to going to college here to some pretty grungy places. and with that ive always maintained a "hey bitches this aint disney" mindset about it. i think its a matter of embracing everything about the city than it is to only show the cool/neato parts. now one of them is studying abroad and told me just the other day that she misses cleveland and feels like thats her home. if someone is gonna have the mindset that "well i moved cuz of THIS" then they obviously are gonna only point out the bad and arent worth convincing.
  3. ohio has 3 major cities but no large airport... thats awful
  4. what, it looks fine. i think it matches up with the bridges in the flats. altho i think its kinda stout and wish it was 5-10 stories taller heh
  5. zaceman replied to a post in a topic in Completed Projects
    ^haha exactly, thats what i was trying to get at

    that is f***ing amazing. especially seeing the flame turning back into water
  7. hah oh man i almost went last night, my bf's friends (CIA grads) run it. hah i didnt realize they moved over there, thats so awesome. ill have to see it
  8. wow that looks really amazing what art opening was it btw??
  9. wow they're going pretty fast with this. the other stuff is almost half way. this is wayyy faster than what the pinnacle took heh
  10. i wonder how this compares to places like Pittsburgh, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Detroit

    hmm a lot of people on this board are against it, including myself, but i know people who live and work in cleveland who are stoked about getting some big name retailers in the city. Bulldozing the past for something pre-fab and new is the *American* Way. I think the "Cleveland Way" is assuming negative stuff that happens in most other cities is only a Cleveland thing and therefore a move to the coasts for only those reasons is completely justified. but id say even that is a common thing in other places as well.
  12. i wonder if Stark has considered the Pesht development for Beck? Seems like the kind of institution that would fit in a place like that.
  13. wow that one freighter photo is awesome and the menonite photo!! holy crap amazing
  14. thats a crazy story, itd be great to get that thing back. i remember there being some kind of celebration on MLK on Memorial Day. Cars everywhere trying to pull out and parked along the curb. Had to stop 20 times to let people out. Finally i just said screw it and went. Some lady called me a white bitch for not letting her out, it was quite a pleasant experience heh.
  15. hmm i would think it could still be integrated into the triangle development if it were at mayfield. travel between CIA/Triangle and Little Italy is pretty common and not really isolated at all
  16. wow exciting, this stuff is happening pretty quick.

    yea i remember it being in the old arcade and not e4th, but then again i was like 7 or 8 so what did i know then heh
  18. not sure how exciting this one is heh, i didnt know Tower Press even had office space Tech firm makes move to MidTown By BRANDON GLENN 6:00 am, June 26, 2006 Ross-Tek Information Systems Inc. has moved to MidTown Innovation Center at 4415 Euclid Ave. President Fred Johnson said the company will occupy roughly the same amount of space — about 1,200 square feet — as it did at its previous location at the Tower Press Building, 1900 E. Superior Ave. The 9-year-old IT company employs three full-time workers, three contractors and is looking to hire three sales people, Mr. Johnson said.

    yea maybe thats true, i guess id have to see it at the time to understand. and ya know, come to think of it my earliest memories of it up until now have always kinda felt like there used to be more to it, kinda like the whole ghost feeling.

    i dunno this whole nostalgia thing is kinda odd. its not like euclid just turned to shit when 1970 hit. its not even bad right now. granted it has a lot to be improved. i was never alive during the euclid avenue heyday, but i do have fond memories of going downtown as a kid on the rapid with my parents. tower city was still grand instead of mediocre, the water fountains and whatnot. and then we would walk over to the old arcade where it was filled with some really cool shops. i remember the one toy shop in there we would always go to. i wanna say there was a comic book store somewhere over there too, but maybe im thinking coventry? and this all took place in the early 90s. We even accidentaly watched the pride '92 parade because we didnt know what was going on around euclid, we walked out of the arcade and there were floats and people waving. i even got excited about the "pretty dancers"...
  21. i wonder if his people read this website heh
  22. ok im confused, they want more money or is this part of the deal already?? and where are these parking garages...?? right near one, possibly two, light rail stations...?? i wish the other big projects would start up so the city can be like "umm these guys dont need a s***load of government money, you shouldnt either." they're really trying to exploit the situation here i think
  23. hmm well id say ask the author, but it doesnt sound like they meant it like rich+poor in one neighborhood = middling income neighborhood. I took it as the neighborhoods that had middle income residents are thinning out and in decline and thus the process is sped up on top of the fact that these people have more mobility to move away to wealthier suburbs with better schools and more space.

    hmm any word on this project yet? i think they were supposed to choose this week who the architects would be
  25. yea come to think of it, i could see it in Columbus too. i just dont know where in downtown cleveland this could go, hah move the port authority? does Stark already have them for his Pesht project? heh
