  1. I don't mind it if subtle. Like the little "key" on top of Key Tower. Anything more than that gets garish.
  2. From yesterday morning on a dreary fall Cleveland day. Note the car with NY plates departing (probably heading for @KJP's neighborhood!)
  3. For as advanced as Japanese culture is, they also have issues reacting to serious looming emergencies.... Clearly these trains could have been moved to higher ground somewhere....but that would have involved stopping the train service early before the storm....
  4. Yes lots of resorts competing with each other (i.e. "cheap")
  5. I guess from the street I could never tell how big it really is. Amazing!
  6. There's no way that building is 50,000 square feet. Is there?
  7. Hopefully if this site got that far, they could figure out how to repurpose the station and incorporate in to the new development, much as they do everywhere in Western Europe....
  8. I thought throwing the challenge flag as your running back is about to cross the goal line was textbook Hugh Jackson!
  9. There you go folks-! The much-anticipated Phase II begins!
  10. Not exactly a ranking of cities, but qualifies as "dumb ass" for certain! ? I'll save you the misery of clicking through dozens of slides: Ohio gets credit for the Longaberger Basket building, if that tells you anything. The Most Impressive Commercial Building in Every State https://www.workandmoney.com/s/impressive-commercial-architecture-every-state-d2fb8cab66a6453d?utm_campaign=commercialarchitecture-32831437a2434809&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=fac&utm_content=787129&fbclid=IwAR0rrVib2lNs5Vm0FahXS7ufDoZ877YWIFvqPIo8Vvg5wp8syRFJRiBheQk
  11. World Series of rock and Monsters of Rock are two different things. World Series was a locally produced show in 1970's Cleveland. Monsters of Rock was a tour in the 80's.
  12. The segment in question between Ontario and Superior takes a turn to the north(ish).
  13. I agree--closing Prospect would eliminate a key north-south route in downtown. With it gone there is not a clear north-south route between Huron and E 9th.
  14. Every time I drive by there, they are parking cars on the grass lot where the building once stood. That, as far as I know, is against city ordinance.
  15. Rental cars should have been on the bottom 2 floors of the short term parking garage, with a new long-term garage behind it. Instead, we have the awful off-site facility and more surface lots around the airport (what our leadership knows best).
  16. Don't forget restrooms. We need bigger and roomier restrooms....
  17. Unless they can reel in a long-term tenant like a City Target. Public Square would be a great location for one.
  18. Cleburger replied to CincyImages's post in a topic in Urbanbar
    mrnyc meeting Mr Worldwide. I get it.
  19. Detroit is still the 11th largest metro in the USA. Cleveland is 33. Detroit is market 13 in TV. Cleveland is 19. I'm not sure how tall hotels and film festivals wind together in a post, but Detroit is still the worldwide home of the auto industry. I am a life long Clevelander and a cheerleader for both cities...but I'm failing to follow your comparisons.
  20. I feel like he has that connection with Landry and Higgins. If he can get their with OBJ, he would truly be dangerous. Will OBJ be that guy? I'm starting to believe what my Giants fans warned me about him....
  21. Makes sense. Most of their offices (and watering holes) are in buildings surrounding the current complex. They wouldn't want a drastic relocation.
  22. Not sure if this was posted yet, but I saw in my Facebook feed today that there will be public tours of the May Company offered on November 7. https://cleveland.uli.org/events/detail/1A98820C-0D21-493D-A919-2F673ACCC5BC/?fbclid=IwAR2T8Ll_bjFSYF7-3y4sMTRN_6A9e5AVxlFkwjyguyAnSpL8DLLBWjXcCe4
  23. There is actually an email address for the GM on RTA's site. [email protected] I'll do my part and send a link from this forum to her....
  24. The reason Cleveland has these wide roads was the time it came of age. They were laid out for street car tracks.
