December 18, 20213 yr A few recent photos ... Looks like someone was having an event in the observation deck: Hmm, why is it called Stonebridge again? Yeah yeah, a view that's going to be changing (the T-shirt shops will need to update their inventory): Bridge to nowhere? Bridge to somewhere? Choo Choo!

They appear on the left side. In a WSJ article the director states the skyline was made using buildings all over the world that have a gothic aesthetic to them. There was a lot of drama to this and the opening sequences. tee hee hee

February 10, 20223 yr Photos from the book "Cleveland/Shaping the Vision" - no scanner so did the best with my DSLR: Details on the unbuilt Convention Plaza, referenced upthread: Aerial view near Cleveland Clinic Model for Ameritrust Center - interestingly the 'roof' of the hotel in this version was barrel vaulted, revised to be flat. Galleria Rendering for US Bank (Renaissance at Playhouse Square) - I wish the turrets lit up like that at night. Aerial of Ferry Cap and Screw, Scranton Road. Model of downtown Cleveland.

April 5, 20223 yr Any history buffs know exactly what corner of Lorain and W 47th the original Fisher Foods stood? The townhomes being developed currently on the northeast corner exposed some of a past structure's basement/foundation. I'm wondering if this was the location. https://case.edu/ech/articles/f/fisher-foods-inc

April 5, 20223 yr Thanks @Dougal So the southeast corner then. Where that wedge shaped lot is next to current day Lorain furniture, it seems. That had been on my list to figure out for a while. But now I have to know what these relics on the northeast corner are!

May 7, 20223 yr Request to our UO drone operators, can someone snap an aerial pic of the steel mills south of I490? I counted at least half a dozen cranes at at least 3 different sites while driving past there today. Not sure what they are all there for but it looked really cool.

A new co-worker came in one day and was just mesmerized at the view. She asked, "what body of water is that?" She was from Strongsville [facepalm emoji]
June 28, 20222 yr A lot of folks visiting Cleveland/Northern Ohio for the first time are surprised at how big the lake is.
