  1. well at least no one is rambling on here how great Times Square in NYC was before the Disney-ification.
  2. the pope replied to a post in a topic in Urbanbar
    grumble.........but i'm still holding judgement
  3. now I'm confused. I've met you previously peabody.
  4. ironically none of their employees could use it because it goes no where near their campuses.
  5. i think corridor kids would be best suited in ohio city or detroit shoreway....... During rush hour, I'm yet to sit on a less than 80% filled train. The weekends, well that's another story, its still too easy for everyone to find a parking spot, and drive their drunk asses home.
  6. well the Hudson's department store is actually only an underground parking garage now. I wont bother you with the boring rumor details.
  7. is kassouf ready to pay the subsequent property taxes on a parcel of land valued at 10 million? I don't think so.
  8. nope i was there. sitting next to JDD
  9. I drove down Lee Today, and all I could think is that I wanted a beer and pizza from dewey's, sorry.

    And all this time I thought you boycotted Ice Cream, because you're watching your figure during "swim suit season". No, I just don't eat.

    No, I can't really pass up jeans days. But i did not eat ice cream (bought by the detroit office for us) in protest.
  12. the pope replied to a post in a topic in Sports Talk
    i want the cavs to win because my employer allows jeans days following a cavs victory.
  13. sounds like the warehouse district to me (yes i know you don't live in WHD)
  14. look i haven't read everyone's comments, but assuming naked people aren't running around the streets, what's the big freaking deal?
  15. transit empty during rush hour? what do you consider rush hour? what area of detroit are you from?

    shouldn't you be on urbankentucky.com? back to liquor though,I did a cursory scan of the ORC and saw no such scenario (% of sales from liquor) in place.
  17. ^looked vacant when i cruised by last saturday.
  18. I send them to the local shop in the colonial arcarde.

    Ha, the Michigan one was announced with an asthmatic child who can not enjoy his favorite food, coney dogs.
  20. do you have any idea how often I'm asked where is a dunkin donuts downtown? Out of all possible questions (bank, cvs, bathroom, hooker, etc.), its routinely near the top.

    a) I doubt liquor licenses vary within one state. (but I'm not a doctor) b) on another level, maybe: with the vast array of liquor licenses available many of them have a "% of revenue from alcohol" stipulation. As far as I can tell its mostly to differentiate an Applebee's (low % of liquor sales relative to total revenue) versus Joe's Beer and Shot Joint (high % of liquor sales relative to total revenue). Michigan Does this to prevent a city being full of too many "Bar-Bars", and allowing room for "restaurant-bars"
  22. the pope replied to a post in a topic in Ohio Politics
    not when your liquor permit depends on % of sales from Alcohol
  23. My hypothesis: probably their economic calculations include lost time, productivity and efficiency from changing locations of the port and other thingies like that. You'll see numbers escalate quickly around transportation modules (i.e. bridge/port/road)
  24. I'm always game. We can also always make it "less walky" and "more drinky"

    As long as Isiah Thomas is Still a GM in the league........
