I must say this. They can't get Broadway commons done or Fountain square west done and now The Banks. The city needs more progressive business people.

I'm sorry, but that's rural thinking, who ever made of that movie. Come on be urban, that's straight country living.

WOW. I hope they are not marketing that to people..lol

Another link to my stats bookmarks..;) Thanks. Oh by the way the old standards was 500 per square mile, now it's 1000 per square mile to be considered urbanized.

I-75 is not even in the city limits of Wyoming. And I-75 went through after Wyoming was formed, so they really have no say.

Wow the status of Detroit would be the biggest major city without a zoo and mass transit???

Oh I thought Detroit was located in Wayne county. So the city of Detriot spread into Oakland county?

I think it's near Vine street, but not on it. I can reconize the post office.

I think in Cincinnati it's supportd by the county and city. Why didn't Wayne county come to the rescue?

I would have thought more than that. How many people work in Downtown Dayton?

^Well to draw more people downtown to live. People will like to have a fast way to get to the hospital. Maybe it could draw older peopel to live dowtown also. They can easily make their appointments at the hospital since it would be so close.

I've always wanted to know that. I think having a hospital that close would bring morepeople downtown along with a great school or college too.

Didn't the Empire state building take 1 year to complete? lol

ATLANTA - More than two dozen Delta Air Lines Inc. pilots brought the fight over their contract to their employer's doorstep Friday as they held signs berating management for asking pilots to take more pay and benefit cuts while the company tries to get court approval for a hefty severance plan for officers. The picketing at the passenger drop-off area outside Delta's terminal at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, the company's main hub, came after the pilots union and airline Thursday failed to agree on another round of concessions. If negotiators for the pilots union and company can't reach a comprehensive deal on new concessions by March 1, a three-person panel would decide the company's request to reject the pilot contract so Delta can impose more than $300 million in cuts unilaterally. The pilots union has said it will strike if its contract is thrown out. The company has warned a strike would put the nation's third-largest carrier out of business.

Only a year away before ground breaking. I wonder why it takes 3 years to build this? I'm thinking it will topped off in 2009 and the insides would be worked on..;)

Yeah the Nashville thing is amazing. 145 miles of commuter rail???? I don't even hear cities 4 times the size of Nashville proposing such a huge system. Are they expecting to upgrade these rails to light rail in the distant future? Where the hell are they getting all this money?

^Yes it is. The FAA said the millenium tower was too tall. I think that was 1200 feet.

I think if none of the above projects was never done. We would be just like Dayton. Bleeding jobs, because nothing ever gets done around here. The vote came too soon, after the stadiums was built, that's why it failed. If it was done today I think it would pass. Cincinnati has the lowest vacancy rate in industral space in the country. We we can some how build industrial skyscraper's we would be set..lol

Man i find it funny that these guys risk losing everything if they stike and the company goes under. Unions are something else i tell ya.

Here we go again.

Wow what took so long? I thought every Metro had a guide book.

Does anyone think if this is built, other cities would follow"we can do better"? In the old days skyscrapers was for showing off. Bigger is better. I think alot of our cities have gotten away from that. Now it's either put up or shut up. If this is built. I can see other peer cities doing the same, just not that design though..lol

This sounds like it's going to go the way of the millenium tower in newport. It had all the investers lined up. But they somehow couldn't get it done. If this were closer to the CBD it wouldn't look as bad. But being where it's going it be located, it looks simply out of place.
