Making the metro move Newly constructed condos in Flats, Warehouse District attracting diverse buyers By STAN BULLARD 6:00 am, April 3, 2006 When Scott and Melissa Arkills moved to Cleveland from Chicago last August, they toyed with buying a single-family house in Avon. Instead, they bought a 2,400-square-foot penthouse unit at Stonebridge Condominium in the Flats near downtown Cleveland. “We like the metropolitan feel,” said Mr. Arkills, 45. “I’ve also owned five houses before as I’ve been relocated for different jobs. I’ve done the yard work thing. For my wife and my lifestyle, we like the access to downtown. We’ve been really pleased with the quality of the restaurants downtown, and that’s coming from Chicago.” The husband-and-wife duo are among the first samplers of the Flats’ newest residential offering: newly constructed condominium buildings at Stonebridge Condominium and, eastward across the Cuyahoga River downtown, at the Pinnacle Building in the Warehouse District.

^maybe they'll digitally remove the scaffolding from Terminal Tower either that or its gonna make a great dirty/gritty city touch

^ yea im wondering would they build a taller building?? since they need 550,000 sq ft of space??? or would it be spread out among the whole "complex"

isnt Case planning to make Bellflower a pedestrian only area?? i definately think E4th already looks like it shouldnt have cars, it should just go pedestrian only especially as more places start to fill up. its already mostly a valet/pick-up/drop-off area

we got a parking lot on public square....

good lord... look at the logo for it...

i cant wait to see the renderings for all this stuff. theres already a ton of construction going on in the circle right now between the museum, clinic, and euclid corridor. im sure the momentum will keep up since the area is already hot/booming

isnt this thread about cleveland...?

awesome! i think we need more cleveland > europe direct flights. what are the current ones? London? Paris? Frankfurt?

http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php?topic=4319 id definately recommend going there in the summer. all you have to do is manage yourself around a locked gate and you can walk right up to the station. its a bit surreal to sit out on the concrete and watch the huge ore ships go by in front of you. especially without a railing...

this will look great with the mix between old and new with the agora

hah yes exactly!! i been to bars, shady pizza joints, and on the subway in manhattan, they look much like cleveland. i dont understand quite what its meant by "new york style" (maybe to cater to suburbanites who have never been to the n-y-c?)

Halle Berry was named after it and it was the Winfred-Louder Building in the Drew Carey Show?

http://www.greencitybluelake.org/ what about this website...?

oh i fully agree as well, i meant along the lines that i wish the market could handle this with the addition of 20-25 story structures near erieview. to sort-of compete with the whole gold coast stuff

Cleveland - Tech companies will star in downtown hatchery Henry J. Gomez Plain Dealer Reporter The high-tech hopes of downtown Cleveland are about to take center stage in the city's Theater District. The eTech Hatchery will open on Star Plaza (East 13th Street and Euclid Avenue) next month in a kiosk that, until December, had been used to sell discounted show tickets. Tom Einhouse, executive vice president of the Theater District Development Corp., will announce the plans Thursday evening at the Idea Center as part of a Red Room Dialogues event. The Hatchery's goal: Increased exposure for fledgling technology companies. And since the tiny building is made of clear, glass walls, exposure -- at least aesthetically -- is all but guaranteed.
