  1. If these politician have their way it may happen. However I think they maybe too far from the population centers. http://www.cincinnati.com/story/news/politics/2017/05/31/new-airport-sw-ohio-far-fetched-far-sighted/359052001/

    They need to do a study about jobs and if more people will stay in their state for work. This will happen to the BSB as well if all the rest of the bridges are not tolled.

    It looks like they took up all the tracks from behind Rookwood.
  4. The western hills viaduct will cost $400 million. that's cheap compared to the Jeremiah bridge. Since that bridge is far in the hinterlands. They don't care about costs. Eg. The Portsmouth bypass. Only rail receives scrutiny in the local media.
  5. This will cost $390+ million now.
  6. That thing sold for $17,000 in 2015 and the hardwood floors needs sanding and refinishing.

    Can MLS and basketball share the same arena if it's designed well? Maybe they can come up with something to get the US Bank arena financed to host MLS, the final four or more.
  8. Some guy killed a man on facebook live. He said he killed about 13!!!
  9. You should throw Silverton(4500) in there. Small is inefficient unless you raise taxes to crazy levels.
  10. Why do trains cost so much? Here is your answer.
  11. https://www.bls.gov/news.release/metro.t03.htm Ohio is bleeding jobs. HOWEVER Cleveland gained jobs, but still lost population in it's metro.
  12. 15 shot at a night club on the east side. Annies again? They need to shut that place down. Edit: It is not Annies. But in the same area.
  13. The part of the problem with jobs is the unions. I'm in a union but i'm not blinded from what going on. A co-worker lived in Tampa and loved it. Be he said they didn't pay much from what he did(construction) down there. They were paying $11 an hour in that field of work. Up here in Ohio $18+. But people are willing to sacrifice pay for warm weather. Weather they can save money to retire that a whole other problem down the road. I could not believe that Orlando had only 16,000 births compared to 40,000+ in-migration. Something will have to give someday.
  14. Trump is cutting subsidies for long haul Amtrak routes.
  15. Cincinnati Bell had a closed door meeting with council members. If I was them I would be pissed too after the investment they have made for 10 years.
  16. This project starts in the spring. http://www.dot.state.oh.us/districts/D08/thruthevalley/Pages/default.aspx
  17. You can also find the data here if you know how to work it. https://onthemap.ces.census.gov/ Also many people at Ford in Sharonville where I work lives in the Dayton metro. 10.7% of Dayton workers(33,388) work in the Cincinnati Metro. 11.2% of Dayton workers(36,861) live in the Cincinnati Metro. 21.9% is the exchange rate of the two metros involving 70249 workers. 2014 data I did not use all workers such as farming or the number would be greater. I used primary workers.
  18. This guy is trying to put all stop to the streetcar. He is trying to take advantage of Trump saying he will take federal funding from the city if they are sanctuary cities. He simply do not care about what other funds the city gets from the feds. It is just stupid to even take a chance.
  19. Forget them. They did the same thing when Comair was in business and bought them out to the point they closed down the operation.
  20. I wonder if Ky being a right to work state now helped?
  21. It's not all great news. Only 600 jobs will be full time. The rest will be seasonal.
  22. They know about it. So that's a problem is something does happen. Someone will be liable and maybe criminally.
  23. Has anyone see this. This is not my photo but some posting on the internet. This is a safety concern. This is the Viaduct over I-75
  24. SW just pulled flights from the Dayton airport.
  25. SW is coming to CVG. wow. I do not think the airline is what it used to be though.
