Electrical contractor John Kraft said it was “very disappointing” that banks allowed the Kenwood project to continue last year, at a time when Kenwood Towne Place owners “had little to no cash in the game.” This guy is an idiot. He had no problem with winning the contract before the first shovel. I guess he's part of the blame too.

The SPUI will need to be some getting used too. And i agree with Daytonnatian. In this economy you'll take what you can get.

WKRC I-74 Ramp Lights Delayed Again http://www.local12.com/news/local/story/I-74-Ramp-Lights-Delayed-Again/Z2q45Mcep0qKInAk-Apjfw.cspx

Isnt this the same line where Covington wants one of the bridges painted or something because of the eye sore?

140 times? If that was the case wouldn't they build a 4 billion dollar system and gain 560 billion in development?

I say sale for 500 million. Interest a year alone will cover any shortfalls in city revenue FOREVER.

I'm jealous.

It's a shame Cincinnati can't get it's act together and build something like this through the middle of the highways. Perth Australia. A million less people than metro Cincinnati. Goran™ http://www.flickr.com/photos/22766589@N08/

I wish they would had combined QCQ1 and 2 to make a 60 story tower.

There is no talent. If their was, we would not be in this whole mess we are now in this great country of ours. The people on NYC is no more special than the people that live in OTR.

I have been hearing that the true deficit was only like 400k. Somebody is lying or everyone is lying about something. Where did the funds go from the sale of the Blue Ash airport? Did i hear right that the city just built a new 78 million dollar school for the creative and performing arts???????

Or Atlanta and it's 33 counties. The area is larger than the state of New Jersey.

If it was all one state im sure it would consolidate. Ky would fight tooth and nail to prevent another airport in the region.

It needs some TLC. Was that an old minor league park?

There is a poll on WCPO right now. "Do You Want To See Streetcars In Cincinnati?" 70% yes 30% no

Why couldn't they find this stuff earlier and make decisions then? Always trying to rush someone back.

I would love to get a developer to build the streetcar and sale advertisment and have the city pick up the operating costs. ;)

The Reds SUCK. At least that's the state of the Reds downtown .;)

"The folks over at COAST like to throw around the word "boondoggle" a quite a bit. They claim the proposed streetcar route, if built, would be a "boondoggle" to the taxpayers despite the fact that our taxes would not be raised, nor would our tax dollars be used to pay for it's construction (the construction of the system would come from already collected capital funds and private contributions)." Wait it's already funded????

This is crazy. http://money.cnn.com/2009/07/30/news/companies/bonuses_tarp/index.htm

The city and county should fight for stimulus money to get the Oasis line up and running. It would be an excellent feeder for the streetcar.

Welcome to Urban Ohio.

Maybe i overreacted. I just think Columbus needs to do more for our inner cities and urban area's.

I wonder how would it effect the census since there will be so many empty homes.

Are you serious?
