GCrites replied to buildingcincinnati's post in a topic in Central & Southeast Ohio Projects & ConstructionIt might still be classified as a City by the state with them choosing to go by "Village" informally. Conveniently not updating signs, "using up old literature and letterhead", "forgetting" to say "City" etc.- Newark: Developments and News
GCrites replied to buildingcincinnati's post in a topic in Central & Southeast Ohio Projects & ConstructionLike I've said before if it had a trailer park and/or crappy '70s apartment complex like most other towns its size it would have to knock it off.- Sycamore Township: Kenwood Towne Centre
I've owned a store in a mall with a church in it and it didn't help with foot traffic at all. I don't get it with furniture stores. They keep expanding while every other kind of retail retrenches. I know furniture is tough to buy well on the internet but how do they keep growing like gangbusters? I have literally burned way more furniture than I've bought.

And brownouting the SFH hahaha. Seriously, I played the SNES version recently and didn't remember how bad the R-zone brownout bug was. There were probably 20-25 zones affected around town. I had plenty of power plants and powerline redundancy. You could tear them down and put in commercial zones but then some other R-zone would start acting up and going down to mud huts. Googled and there's nothing you cand do.- Sycamore Township: Kenwood Towne Centre
A nation now mostly blue-collar jobs + WFH for white collar = dead department stores.- Columbus: West Scioto Area Developments and News
I always thought that building was interesting in that it had the same design elements and tenants as the corner of Northwest Blvd. and Chambers Rd. Witness: 1. Same ceilings 2. Built around the same time 3. Pitched roofs 4. Both buildings had Sparano's Pizza 5. Pure Skin Tattoos moved from the NW and Chambers building to this one 6. Both had game stores (Guardtower and Super Game Team) 7. Quarry Co. was Meister's II- Ohio: GM, Ford, and Chrysler News & Info
Used Porsche Taycan Turbos have lost half of their value in only 4 years. That's insane in today's car market where cars barely depreciate at all relative to pre-COVID. It is also unusual for Porsche, who unlike Land Rover, Maserati, Jaguar, Mercedes-Benz etc. sees low depreciation for a luxury manufacturer. Lack of infrastructure must be figuring in there and possibly early adopter fatigue.- Ohio Marijuana News
On Channel 6 there was a panel stating that any dispensaries that aren't doing medical already won't be opening until at least 2026.- Suburban Cleveland: Development and News
I understand a lot of people haven't had the opportunity to compare overall costs of different locations in the way that I have. I have lived in every type of area. Costs that you save one way get transferred to other ways. You pay less tax but your other bills go up. Way up in some cases. People don't think about how having a well makes your electric bill go up because of having to run the electric water pump. And when the power shuts off you have no water.- Suburban Cleveland: Development and News
Those rural areas have lower taxes because of water, sewer and other service. A place on a well and septic tank/leach bed damn well better be cheaper than one with utilities you have to maintain yourself. We have had 3 wells go dry on just one property since I have been alive. If my kid is losing 1.5 hours a day sitting on a bus to get to school it had better be cheaper. Power that goes off all the time because there's no redundancy better lower my taxes. $120 a month trash bill because the garbage truck only stops every 800 feet instead of every 40. No natural gas service so you gotta pay a guy in a truck to come along and fill your tank up. People don't think about how much of a tax there is on their time the further out you go. Everything is inconvenient. A lot of people don't value their time.- Suburban Cleveland: Development and News
Nope, I'm in the suburbs because it's far cheaper than the dense places I want to live. If what you said was true I my house wouldn't be worth 25 percent of what a more urban equivalent is. Free markets at work.- MLB: General News & Discussion

Don't annex SFH on over a half acre lot unless it's worth over $500k or you lose money.- Columbus: Merion Village / Southside Developments and News

Getting blocked wouldn't have happened under the neocons and neolibs we had running things in the '90s and 2000s which destroyed a massive amount of whire-collar jobs while leaving blue-collar jobs unaffected. They let every merger run free then wonder why everyone works in a warehouse now.- NFL: General News & Discussion
