Columbus: Population Trends
Oh so perhaps the numbers are based on how many family members are already present in said city. I didn't think of that.

Urban Ohio "Picture Of The Day"
Jeez that bridge is high. I'm sure I've driven underneath it but you sometimes don't get a good sense of height while driving. I'd be getting dizzy if not have to turn back. Probably have to walk in the middle.

Cincinnati: General Transit Thread
Getting tons of warehouse will make him look good when he inevitably moves on to Dallas or Huston or something. He doesn't need rail transit to do that.

Cincinnati: General Transit Thread
Some of these people get warehouse on the brain and only think about that all day since the numbers are big.

Columbus: Downtown: The Madison / 100 North High
I think there's a lot of people that think tower, grass, tower, grass, tower, grass is acceptable but real urbanism isn't.

Grandview Heights: Developments and News
I've never felt you were going to naturally get good urbanism at this intersection due to the design of the roads. You would have to force it with a large scale planned development of all four corners at the same time or else you're just going to get more car stuff.

Rethinking Transport in the USA
Electric cars have regenerative braking which takes load off of the wheel brakes for many types of stops. Though the extra weight does indeed affect stops that have little regenerative braking (which are few). Also when the battery is over 90% regenerative braking gets turned off by the computer.

Columbus: General Business & Economic News
Everybody wants to be in the furniture business. Notice how furniture stores keep opening when nearly every other store concept is stagnant or shrinking. Buying furniture on the internet totally sucks unless it's custom maybe. It's one of those things people had to learn the hard way. The pandemic hurt minimalism big time too. Once people had to be home without Netflix on they figured out their dwelling was boring.

It was kind of shocking to see Big Lots abandon places like the South Side and Lancaster in the 2010s. I suppose that's how you knew they were in shrink mode. Ollie's slipped in to those areas during their absence.

Columbus: Clintonville Developments and News
GCrites replied to Summit Street's post in a topic in Central & Southeast Ohio Projects & Construction^The infamous Chuck E. Cheese operating as Pasqually's during lockdown phenomenon. Of course that was still in their own facilities though. People were like "When did we get a new pizza place in town?"

GCrites replied to Summit Street's post in a topic in Central & Southeast Ohio Projects & ConstructionGood explanation. I didn't really think about them being "incubators" as much.
