:-o I will be praying that Mrs. Tubbs makes a full recovery because Anuerysm's can be very dangerous if not treated early

Thanks Noozer, this is great news because now I can get down to Atlanta a lot easier

Yeah its still there. If you look at the first pic about half-way up the left side of the building, the elevator has little blue lights on it!

Def. gotta agree with you on that one.... my favorite shot out of all them! Good thread

Well The Ohio State Fair is going on all this week and the food is great!!!

Sorry but the Buckeyes are the most popular Football team in Ohio and everybody knows that. Carson is dogging OSU fans but those are some of the same people who support him.

Man just look at all that beautiful scenery... sometimes I wonder why I'm still in Ohio! I like seeing snow but I would kill for 70+ all year round

Wow... we must have been in Miami around the same time because I just got off that ship last Saturday... I will post pics of the inside of that ship in a few days

Wow @ this thread.... I joined a fraternity because I saw a group of young black men doing something positive on campus and around the community. Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc. is the first black greek letter fraternity founded in 1906. Yes we do have parties and we drink but most of the time that stuff over-shadows the real reason we even exists. Nobody talks about the 'Penny Drive' project we do where we raise money for homeless shelters during Thanksgiving. How about 'A Voteless People Is A Hopeless People' where we march around campus making sure students and the community is not only registered to vote, but voices their rights to vote... I could go on and on about the countless projects many fraternities have annually. 'Some' frats are all about the parties, drinking, and women. All of that is cool, but that's not the main purpose for me joining a fraternity.

They haven't been the Yankees farm team for about a year now. They are now the farm team of the Washington Nationals, but they probably will change since the contracts of the farm teams of the Reds and Indians will be up soon.

Oh Sh!t this is kinda scary because I went to the 'Street View' of my house and there is a car in my driveway that I don't recognize :wow:

All I have to say is thank God for Nationwide :lol:

Anybody have any updates on Phase II. I hope this project has not been scrapped

Wow.... never saw this thread. 26 but I will be 21 forever!!!

Once again, Columbusite you represent our city so well!!!

:shrug:..... I was always told the Midwest starts at Ohio

^^^^^^DING, DING, DING!!! Nice pics by the way

Damn.... I didn't know Canton looked that rough

I haven't read this info anywhere but I was at Easton yesterday and there is a sign up that Easton is getting a Tiffany's Jewlery store. That should fit in really nice but that means my girl has a new store to spend my money :laugh:

Here are a few pics of my girlfriend and I trying to shovel our way out of our aptmnt. complex :-D

:applause: Thanks Columbusite..... The house you said is one of your favorites is where my Dad's good friend lives and the house is beautiful inside as well as outside. If I knew how to take pics (as well as you guys did) I would venture off into Milo and take pics but :shrug:.... maybe when the weather breaks

WOW...... That last rendering is very nice!!! I think we are moving in the right direction C.O.

DAMNNNNNNNNNN!!!! Anybody wanna let me borrow $300,000 :lol:

What you just described is the Arena District :lol:

Just what the upscale residents of German Village and the downtown condos want (or need) something that will attract every drunken redneck from a 100 mile radius to hang out in downtown Columbus wasting their paychecks every weekend. Build a casino in downtown Columbus and you can kiss German Village property values goodbye and start taking over/under bets on how high the CBD crime rate will spike and how far down the office occupancy rate will plummet. What I would like to see is a nice mix of office, residential and retail--in the framework of some interesting architecture. As far as retail goes you're never going to lure the suburbanites back downtown to shop. It's just not going to happen. What downtown does need is a good mix of retail that has a catalyst effect on downtown living (i.e. makes it more attractive and easier). Things like Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Best Buy, Home Depot a Crate & Barrel. In other words, a retail mix that serves downtown residents in the manner that the Clybourn shopping corridor in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood serves the Lincoln Park, Gold Coast, Bucktown neighborhoods. I totally understand what you are saying but I hear soooooooooo many people say that 'downtown is dead' and 'we need more things after 5 to do downtown'. German Village is far enough away that I don't think it will affect it. Do you know what neighborhoods surround GV? The crime is already there. The retail stores you mentioned will be great but I think they will end up the same way City Center did..... closed or on the edge of going out of business. If done the right way, a Casino/Hotels/Resturants would be an excellent idea for downtown IMO!
