There, corrected your post. Ha ha! Thats for sure. What a waste of space she is.

No, I meant demonstration. On page 33, CTownsFinest216 proposed (perhaps jokingly) organizing a demonstration against the selection of the suburban office-esque design proposal. Lets demonstrate!!

Clvlndr, excellent post. I agree 100%. The placement of the Stadium is an absolute atrocity. Why place ANY sports venue--especially one that is used so infrequently--on such prime property? I also endorse the tax. I believe the benefits of the MM and CC far outweigh the drawbacks of the increased tax rate.

When is the demonstration??

Those pictures look GREAT. Thanks for all the great info!!!

No way Varajeo gets anywhere close to $9-10 million per year. If that was the case, he would be making more than the man he backs up, Drew Gooden, who makes around $7 million per year. Varejao is a good energy guy, but he cannot score, cannot defend, and will be significantly less valuable if the NBA institutes the much discussed no flopping rule.

I agree with Mov2Ohio: the medical center should receive priority since it has the potential to be a much bigger source of revenue and growth for the city than a county structure. While not an ideal situation, the city can afford to live with 5 more years of vacancy on the Ameritrust site.

Thank you everyone for the great information! This is the best forum :lol:

I am referring to the glass house building-the one with the wavy blue roof. I walked by it earlier tonight and it did not seem as if much progress has been made for awhile. Additionally, I am curious about the occupancy rate. Thanks.

Whats going on with the condos? Why are they not yet finished? Are they having a problem selling units? Thanks!

Good thing he did this. I shudder to think how much of an eyesore it'd be had he not have taken this action.

Its a shame the student center turned out the way it did. It is quite the monstrosity. A hodgepodge of awkward design elements, shapes, and textures that do not mesh well. Its as if the architect took the worst elements of design from the last 3 decades and combined them into the most physically revolting building one could dream up. I almost prefer the current center.

I find it humorous that the article cites as a reason for demolition the fact that the building is not structurally sound enough to stand up to earthquakes. Apparently, it hasn't had a problem in its 36 years of existence and should be okay into the foreseeable future unless somebody is expecting a rash of earthquakes soon.

Its good that you shared that here, or else how would we have found out with Sun omitting it? Thank you!

Thank you, KJP, I have been a long time lurker of the board and have enjoyed tremendously the discourse and sharing of inside info that is found here.

Did you all see this? From the PD: The revival of East Fourth Street Posted by Bill Lubinger June 19, 2007 19:53PM Categories: Arts & Life By Bill Lubinger Plain Dealer Reporter East Fourth Street was "the liveliest, gayest block in Cleveland," the Cleveland Press touted in 1936. With a mix of shops and cafes, theater, music and art schools, the street was the place to be -- when downtown was the only place to be in Northeast Ohio...

Thanks for posting that. It looks great!

^Agreed.
