Much has been said about how Cleveland has too many stand-alone projects (e.g., Medical Mart, Gateway, RRHoF) that are believed to be silver bullet answers to the city's woes and not a comprehensive vision of what the city wants to be.  If that is the case, what would your overall vision for Cleveland be?

 

I actually have a bit of a problem answering this question myself, because I am not sure where the line between "grand vision" and "large project" is.  Posts in this thread ( http://www.urbanohio.com/forum2/index.php/topic,19103.0.html ) have listed a good number of both, but what is the distinction between "vision" and "project"?  What is it that we should be focusing on in the big picture that we aren't doing?  Because I do feel that many of the one-shot projects that the city is doing are actually necessary for any large city to be competitive.  So what's missing in our strategy?

You definitely should look up the Cleveland 2030 Master Plan, I would do it but alas I'm on my iphone
