  1. See post directly above.
  2. Sorry everyone I misread the original post about 3 major league venues....I just thought it said "major league venues"
  3. Off the top of my head....Seattle, Baltimore, Minneapolis, New Orleans, Philadelphia, Denver, Phoenix, Nashville, Cincinnati
  4. Not unlike other sorts of "economic development" carrots the city has to dangle to get sports teams or businesses to stay.....
  5. Say what you want about Barkevious, but he has one of the coolest names in the NFL. Also, I've been around a lot of pro athletes. But one time I was on the field for the Browns pregame and Mingo is a freak of nature. He looked like a robot warrior in his uniform!
  6. Agreed. And how long have these plans been in "some stage." We have a long way to go before Burke needs to be addressed. IMO, (full disclosure, I am a pilot who uses BKL) the city should build a massive hangar between Taxiway G and North Marginal Rd (in the open grassy area where you may have parked if you went to the airshow). Contract Signature or some other FBO to run it. Then: Invite any aviation-related business low rent to relocate there. Invite any business of over 100 employees who moves to the City of Cleveland free hangar storage for their aircraft.
  7. I dunno shack. Trump likes to hire contractors with dubious immigration status. Would you like those kinds round these parts?
  8. So much wrong with this story. 1. For every Jeffrey Epstein, there are tens of thousands of legal GA flights every day. 2. It costs more than $5 to land an aircraft of Epstein's type-at any airport, including Burke: https://www.burkeairport.com/services/pricing-fees 3. Even if TSA was present, they don't generally check inbound passengers, and for outbound, they are not trained to catch sex-traffic victims. I can't even imagine your average TSA agent trying to spot this....actually, it might be quite funny!
  9. Lumen crane (and the rest of downtown) making an appearance in this CNA FB post! ?

    Suspected gang member poses for photo with gun, cash in Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson’s driveway, sources say Updated Aug 30, 2019; Posted Aug 30, 2019 https://www.cleveland.com/metro/2019/08/suspected-gang-member-poses-for-photo-with-gun-cash-in-cleveland-mayor-frank-jacksons-driveway-sources-say.html?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=clevelanddotcom_sf&fbclid=IwAR0VkzbWLS1gHlKbxaL9OtmdEVjrFD1YiW7lZNMeslbBt4W9UO751g6hRqo&fbclid=IwAR35FlxseuWWa7r2F578ikM9i1lHfbT35lrenADeVrbjiERYqJ9o3H-LT-w
  11. I'd give it about a month before it broke down from overuse, then the city mechanics would have to negotiate a new contract just to get them to look at the thing!
  12. Still a functioning plant to supply steam for downtown
  13. Anyone know the architects for the Walz Branch on Detroit? Bialosky Cleveland and Robert P. Madison Architects — Walz Branch (new building).

    The Facebook rumor mongers, or perhaps the local media (what we have left of it), could fact check this theory easily. He has a driver and a city car--just sit outside and wait every morning and evening.

    As someone who spends a lot of time in other countries, I can back up what this writer is saying! Cleveland, your potholes are a riot: Gianna Niewel https://www.cleveland.com/news/2019/08/cleveland-your-potholes-are-a-riot-gianna-niewel.html
  16. And another opportunity, for those young, fit and with hair! Actors needed for WWII documentary series filming in Cleveland Climb aboard the USS Cod for the big screen. https://www.wkyc.com/article/news/actors-needed-for-wwii-documentary-series-filming-in-cleveland/95-006adc14-3e57-453f-9cf1-ed4f12261149
  17. This is making more and more sense now that they are partnering with Air Canada and United (though not members of *Alliance that I can tell)
  18. I bet also the City of Independence will do well with it thanks to some DUI checkpoints near the exit!
  19. That must mean IT IS TRUE! ?
  20. I wonder if the new building will go the entire depth of the property and fill in the parking on the Lake Ave side? 40-80 units would be a fairly substantial building!
  21. It's been life-changing. No more ruining the knees of my pants to buy a rail ticket!
  22. A bit different view....from 22nd/Cedar earlier this afternoon on this beautiful Cleveland summer day.
  23. US Bank may require it to be removed as a part of their deal ending.
  24. I don't disagree at all. But with the current political and business climates, we are in an uphill battle. Until Ohio starts thinking more progressively, we'll continue to have a hard time attracting 20-something software coders who would rather be on the coasts with better transit, weather and tolerance.
