Speaking of the new courthouse, has there been any word on its height/design?

Very, very impressed! I wonder what it looked like before the Main Street Project and how much of a difference the Main Street program had.

The I-71/I-270 project is a go and will look similar to the SR-161/I-270 interchange when finished. My company put in a proposal to do the project but we didn't win the bid. Columbus Monthly also said that the Sullivant Ave./Demorest Rd. improvement project would be constructed this year which is great news for me. That was the first project I ever worked on when I graduated from OSU in 1999. The planning for that project started in 1994, but was delayed because of all the hoopla surrounding the city's curb ramp standards. It seemed like they came out with a new curb ramp standard every month back then.

That's good news! The Anthony Wayne bridge is definitly a landmark....it always impressed me when I saw it from I-75 at night.

so the new bridge isn't replacing the one shown in the photo?

Findlay calls itself "Flag City, USA" so where are all the flags. I saw a few in the pics, but I was expecting flags all along the main street. Both cities look very nice. Bowling Green's downtown looks it benefits nicely from its close proximity to BGSU. Is UF near downtown Findlay?

I can't wait to see a picture taken from the same vantage point once the new bridge is done.

^Riverside was incorporated in 1994, not 1995 :? Any renderings or masterplans floating around out there?

What website did you get your VMD information from? Does it have info on Ohio's other land surveys?

here's a good website to check out: http://www.downtowncolumbus.com/downtown_housing.php

Let me know if you come down for a game....we can booze it up in the Arena District before and after the game. :drunk:

It's very easy. They started a new promotion this year where you can buy $10 dollar tickets starting two hours before the game. I did that for a Sunday game against the LA Kings and it wasn't a bad deal.

I'd love to see West Virginia University join the Big Ten. I think PSU and WVU wold be a good little rivalry since Morgantown is close to PA. BTW, did you know that Joe Pa in Russian means bullshit? It's spelled differently of course, but my Russian co-worker always gets a kick out of hearing the sports commentator say Joe Pa on TV, lol.

Nash might be back on the ice in 2 weeks! :clap:

So who would you say is PSU's biggest rival in the Big Ten? (which game gets PSU students most excited

true, but until we have a conference championship game we have to live with stuff like "Co-Champions" PSU's victory over OSU got them the automatic BCS bowl bid. If PSU wanted to be the sole Big Ten Champs they should have beat Michigan :-D When OSU won the national championship in 2002 we were only the Co-Champs of the Big Ten with Iowa even though we had a perfect record (Iowa lost one non-conference game, but won all their Big Ten games).

Congratulations to the Ohio State Buckeyes: Champions of the Big 10 :wink:

Ohio State vs. Notre Dame Fiesta Bowl '06

I was at the Kerry rally in Zanesville too....WAAAAAAAY in the back though.

LOL, I didn't mean to start a UC vs. OSU vs. CWRU vs. Etc. argument. My post was meant as a joke (although every bit of it is true). :-D

The Ohio State University is the best school in the state and is located in the best city in the state.* *Bias opinion of an Ohio State alumnus who resides in Columbus.

Any new or rehab residential projects taking place in downtown Youngstown?

well, this came in under the radar..... http://ohioloft.com/

^ sweet, now just imagine how nice the skyline would look with a 28-story building u/c at the same time as the new Nationwide building, Grange mid-rise, and new Franklin County Courthouse addition!

They have a fly-over video for the Children's Hospital expansion on 10tv.com and it looks great! It's good to hear that they are expanding their downtown site and not opting for a suburban hospital campus somewhere in southern Delaware County (hint, hint CSCC).
