  1. Manhole cover blew up. The second this year. All them lines do need to be replaced. http://www.local12.com/News/Local/story/Manhole-Fire-Closes-Streets-in-Downtown-Cincinnati/q_josjr47EGVCWSNYDXdPg.cspx
  2. Im for advertising on it. I saw one with Chipotle on it. It didn't look tacky. It will help offset operating costs.
  3. ^Well he knew where she was and she had to tell him.
  4. Maybe they can make a Cincinnati walk of stars somewhere at the banks.
  5. Why is Ohio not getting any major job announcements? Like the 6000 jobs that Apple is making in Austin?
  6. Well Winburn knows most would take the streetcar from the banks to the main campus.
  7. But there are studies that has it's population at about 365,000.
  8. ^Then the city would make the bond 75 million instead of 65 million.
  9. Wait, so the city of Cincinnati has to pay for roads because of a development in Norwood? That does't seem right.

  11. I think it would have to become a MSA of Akron first. It is the same media market though. There was a proposal last year of making it one urban area. But they did not follow through with it. My thinking is because Philly would have been absorbed into NYC. So to cause less drama they made it that no urban area could merger with another unless it was losing urban status.
  12. Yeah i don't understand it either. Fort Meyers seems to have had the worse economy in the USA and still grew by 10k+. Charlotte has had a bad economy as well and still grew 60k+. wtf!!! Las Vegas seems to have came to a Halt though.
  13. Takes these as a grain of salt, but Dayton grew in it's MSA and CSA MSA http://www.census.gov/popest/data/metro/totals/2011/tables/CBSA-EST2011-01.xls CSA http://www.census.gov/popest/data/metro/totals/2011/tables/CBSA-EST2011-02.xls
  14. It is time for Ohio to find other sources of funding our transportation projects. Maybe implementing a sales tax(1.5% for both road and rail). The Seattle area done it. That's one way they are financing their 20 billion in transportation costs.

  16. ^Honestly how do you know this?
  17. CINCINNATI -- Nothing settled yet, no compromise in place so far, but Duke Energy says it continues to work to try to reach a resolution in its dispute with the city of Cincinnati over the streetcar project. A spokesman for the utility tells News 5 a fact-finding trip to Atlanta has been scrapped. Read more: http://www.wlwt.com/news/30802416/detail.html#ixzz1qdYmm5X5

    Some CBD 's covers a few blocks while Downtown's cover a more broad range. Cincinnati CBD. http://www.3cdc.org
  19. Thanks. This does not sound very encouraging. This will greatly limit where I can live in the neighborhood and that presents a problem for a project that I had in mind to serve the neighborhood. If you are looking at some of the prices for homes there that can go for as little as $4000. There is a reason.
  20. Montgomery road? That's further away than the original length of the new street car.
  21. It would be Chaos if they have to shut the bridge down due to a crack. They might as toll the bridge now, so it will give them an idea on what to expect in the future.
  22. GDP tells how productive a metro is.
  23. What was the Minneapolis bridge state before it collapsed? Don't the Louisville have problems with cracks. It was made around the same time as the BS and the BS carries WAY more traffic.
  24. Here is a beta map. It will be updated later in the spring for 2010 urban area's. http://tigerweb.geo.census.gov/tigerweb/default.htm
  25. Last year I made a post about the new proposed urbanized area criteria. Must of that was approved except for one major exception when it comes to combining urban area's. http://www.census.gov/geo/www/ua/2000_2010uadif.pdf Merge qualifying territory from separately defined 2010 Census urban cores that share territory contained within the boundaries of the same Census 2000 urban area. Merge only occurs if an area is at risk of losing urbanized area or urban status and is preventable by the merge. So a combined Cleveland-Akron-Canton UA, Cincinnati-Middletown,Dayton, UA or Philadelphia NYC UA will not happen this time around.
