Congrats to the Lady Vikings. https://www.wkyc.com/article/sports/ncaa/ncaab/vikings-bb/cleveland-state-womens-basketball-ncaa-tournament-73-61-win-green-bay-horizon-league-finals/95-7c89f48e-8919-400e-a0fb-6657bf9c25cd

Mobley did OK last night. Allen had an off night.

Yes, it certainly was wacky. The Celtics were hitting 3 pointers like crazy in the first half while the Cavs looked out of sync - missed shots, bad passes - almost as if they had played a double OT game the night before. But apparently Joe Thomas got them fired up in the 4th quarter for an unbelievable finish.

I assume the signage above the marquee will be removed.

Mother Nature is unpredictable. The Guardians will probably have snow for their home opener next month.

Those 2 houses should have been demolished when the other 2 houses next to them were demolished.

Well, at least that was the plan. https://www.wkyc.com/article/sports/cleveland-monsters-outdoor-clasic-delayed/95-6e6de8c2-2acd-4823-a32c-64ca5fb51deb

Agreed. Let's first focus on getting those surface lots and rickety parking garages in the CBD developed before putting up towers on the perimeter. Euclid Avenue is looking so much better and more energized with the repurposed May Company, Schofield and AmeriTrust buildings as well as the addition of Beacon, Lumen and now City Club. I think the next area to be addressed should be the available parcels in the Prospect/Huron/Bolivar triangle between Ontario and E 14th. That is the part of downtown many visitors see when they are attending an event at Progressive Field or Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse. Also the parcels surrounding the SHW complex need to be addressed once that project is completed. As for the lakefront, I would prefer to see it developed for recreational and entertainment purposes. Some suggestions include a world class aquarium, marina, concert pavilion, walking/biking trails, dog park, skating/ice rink, gardens (Donald Gray 2.0), maybe even a small amusement park or at least a Ferris wheel.

Right, uncertainly about the stadium, Burke and the shoreway. It seems like it would be silly to develop anything significant in that area until the uncertainty is resolved.

Compared to B and C, A isn't that bad. It just needs a little TLC.

That's what I was wondering. But apparently, they are just doing minor renovations.

Local media tends to focus only on bad news.

It would be demolished and probably end up in Lake Erie, next to Municipal Stadium.

It looks like someday has arrived. https://www.cleveland.com/news/2023/02/odot-hopes-to-improve-i-480-congestion-near-cleveland-hopkins-airport.html

I tend to agree with @GISguy. Such a large venue that only holds a limited number of events per year doesn't need to be right downtown. Many of us are lamenting the loss of a big chunk of the Warehouse District to make way for the justice center and parking lots. Will that also be the case if a big chunk of the eastern section of downtown is demolished to make way for a stadium and parking lots? My preferred location would be south of downtown at or near the post office location. It is close to highways and an RTA station. Let's be honest, that area is never going to attract upscale commercial, residential or recreational development. Moving out of Cuyahoga County seems unlikely. They would need to get those residents to vote for a sin tax or some other tax which would most likely fail. Whereas in Cuyahoga County they can just keep extending the sin tax indefinitely.

^ Interesting idea. I assume it would require closing Carnegie between E 18th and E 22nd.

Also on WTAM.

Maybe @KJP doesn't want to reveal too much until the bomb drops.

I can't imagine both tower city and lakefront plans happening. I think it will be either one or the other. If so, I'd rather see tower city.

Good. They can ruin a Cavs competitor in the east.

So the only game without a clock now has a clock. Thanks Manfred.
