September 23, 200816 yr Went to a gallery opening (http://www.frontroomcleveland.com/) a week or so ago at Tyler. The place was packed and the art & music were great. I hadn't been in for quite a while, so it was nice to see things moving along. It's also getting rarer to mention Tyler in a conversation and get the "what village?" look anymore. People know about it! Any updates on Indigo? The retail space?
November 19, 200816 yr sorry, long time no posts from me: indigo imp brews - producing beers, should see them on the shelf of Heinens soon. retail space - ran into a hurdle, but has since been overcome, should have all windows and storefront systems up by December 15th. Ante Up Audio just doubled in size and has started teaming up with Factory Restaurant to do shows. They had Chuck Mosely from Faith No More play the first event last week. Speaking of music and the Front Room Gallery: I have teamed up with Paul from FRG to bring 3 groups to the space December 21st - the Insect Factory (MA), Mike Tamburo (PA) & Loud & Sad (PA). All welcome. EPrep is on schedule for their move in. Note new windows going in on 36th street. PC Helps has expanded and will be adding another 35 to 50 jobs to the city. Best, WW
December 1, 200816 yr Not really development news but I thought I'd let people know about a concert happening at Tyler Village on December 21st. Insect Factory and Mike Tamburo played together at Terrastock 7, an amazing set of hammer dulcimer and electric guitar/effects pedals.
December 3, 200816 yr Cool! Thanks! "In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage." -- John Steinbeck
December 5, 200816 yr If you plan on buying a 6 pack, you will need to go into the back of the east campus, past the orange docks and into the man door, Indigo Imp is on the ground floor to the left of the door/stairwell. from indigo imp brews: Great Beer Lovers and Indigo Imp Supporters, We are happy to announce that we finally have beer to sell!! The last couple months have been spent brewing, bottling, and waiting, waiting, waiting for bottle labels to come in. They arrived this week. We are offering a limited amount of Blonde Bombshell and Winter Solstice for sale from the brewery store on Friday Dec. 5th From 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm. The cost is $8.99 for a six pack plus tax. Cash Only. This sale is in advance of any retail store sales and is being advertised to people who have signed our online form and the brewery's immediate neighbors. A note about the beer: Indigo Imp Brewery produces unfiltered, naturally carbonated beer in open fermentors. The beers are complex in flavor and aroma yet surprisingly smooth and especially delicious when paired with cheese and other foods. We recommend serving our beer at 45-55 deg.f. and also recommend pouring it slowly into a glass, leaving the yeast sediment in the bottle. Keep checking the web site for upcoming events and where to buy Indigo Imp beers. Cheers, Matt & Kathy Chappel "Give Me An Imp!"
December 5, 200816 yr ^Nice! Can't wait to see their lines on store shelves. I hope retailers jump on board.
February 20, 200916 yr after drinking a Bells last night at Prosperity I realized that I had probably not given an update in a long while.. so here it is: As mentioned, PC Helps has expanded and is adding another 50 to 100 jobs to our fair city. Their expansion space is done and they are putting butts in the seats now. Sparkbase has been conducting interviews as they look to expand their workforce. Nu Life Fitness not only makes you sweat hard in a workout, but also serves up a nice smoothy, pop by for one sometime. E Prep is nearing completion. Working with an exciting start-up project that will hopefully be moving in soon... more on this when I can give it. Currently looking for someone who wants to run a cafe. I have a very good deal for this person, if you know of anyone. Indigo Imp is still selling it's beers on Friday afternoons, make a trip down before you head home! WW

Thanks for the update. You guys are doing a great job over there.
February 24, 200916 yr promising cafe lead for Tyler, also toured a 35,000 SF user who would basically complete the the 4 story buildings on the east side of 36th st. Have another business looking to relocate from a different state all together, they'd take 4,000 SF. Had a start-up manufacturer look at possibly 10k.
February 26, 200916 yr hmmm.. is it in the air? Tyler Village looks like THE destination for yet another tech start-up. I hope to have something solid for you by end of next week!
February 26, 200916 yr I'll do you one better. We are producing a 3 to 6 minute movie done by one of the premier marketing groups of Cleveland. I'll try to get a few pictures posted soon.
February 27, 200916 yr And a link to the video! :) Good work. I miss Tyler and the rest of the hood :(
March 12, 200916 yr fyi: Indigo Imp has a new Belgian Pale Ale available: Indigo Imp Jester Pale Ale: Jester A pale ale fermented with a special blend of Belgian style yeast, has a pleasant clove and a little banana flavor balanced with a moderate malt character. The finish is a slight hop bitterness with some spiciness from the yeast. Available Friday from 2:30 PM until 5:30 PM at their shop in Tyler Village!
March 19, 200916 yr Records, records as far as the eye can see. We are working to get a vinyl record pressing plant set up at Tyler Village. Who knew you needed a huge boiler!? This company will start off with 4 to 8 employees, but it's actually a growing market in the music industry (mostly subsidized by yours truly and his all too frequent trips to Bent Crayon on Detroit and W. 116th). The plant in Nashville started with 8 and grew to over 50 employees, I believe.
March 20, 200916 yr any business that has a need for a huge boiler should strongly consider solar thermal (on the roof) as a means for pre-heating boiler water and thereby significantly reducing fuel costs. there are currently substantial tax credits (Fed & State) as well as a huge variety of State & Federal grants available for this relatively simple and low maintenance technology. great to hear about the record processing plant - certainly an intriguing physical manifestation of the rock 'n' roll capital of the world! the connection btwn grooves in vinyl, electrical signals, & vibrational energy has always amazed me and been reason for much pondering on the means of energy transfer in the universe.
March 20, 200916 yr it occurs to me, if one of the studios at tyler has a lathe, one could produce a record from start to finish in the same building. pretty amazing.
March 25, 200916 yr fyi, not development related, but there is a show at Tyler Village this weekend: 3/28 9:30 PM Front Room Gallery 3615 Superior Ave Building 42 3rd floor Corner of 36th and Superior Pilia-Alexander-Belfi Trio -------------------------- STEFANO PILIA (Bologna, Italy) b.1978, Genoa, Italy guitar, electronics -solo and member of 3/4 Had Been Eliminated, Medves, SPQ -collaborated with Black Forest/Black Sea, Giuseppe Ielasi, Renato Rinaldi -multiple releases on labels such as Die Schachtel, Sedimental, Last Visible Dog, Soleilmoon, Hapna, Time-Lag, more -has performed at Imaginaria Festival/Bari, Emotion/Milano, Torino Film Festival/Torino, installations: Raum/Bologna, AS220/Providence, Viafarini/Milano -"Pilia has become Italy's finest music export this year. After his stunning release on Last Visible Dog, it was clear he had little competition. His subsonic drones are a thing of beauty; pulling in and pushing the listener away simultaneously, keeping him or her in a constant state of limboith all things Stefano Pilia does, there is an understated and simple beauty beneath them." (Brad Rose, Foxy Digitalis) http://www.myspace.com/stefanopilia JEFFREY ALEXANDER (Pittsburgh, PA) b.1968, Baltimore, USA guitar, electronics, tambura -solo and member of Black Forest/Black Sea, the Iditarod, SPQ -collaborated with Fursaxa, Kemialliset Ystavat, Christina Carter, Gravenhurst, ES, Avarus -multiple releases on labels such as Last Visible Dog, Music Fellowship, Time-Lag, Secret Eye, Fonal, more -has performed at Terrastocks I, V, VI, VII, All Tomorrow's Parties/Minehead, Moonshake/Umea, Zu Fest/Roma, 8mm Festival/Castelfranco, VPRO National Dutch Radio, National Norwegian Radio, BBC Radio, more -owner Secret Eye Records and Morning Glory Coffeehouse in Pittsburgh -"Guitar, electronics and various small rackety sounds collect themselves into a haze of infinite possibilities. At certain points there's a sparseness to their approach recalling Charalambides' quiet explosions; at others there's a weird and wooly organic depth closer to some of the contemporary giants of the Finnish underground." (Byron Coley, Harp) ANDREA BELFI b.1979, Milano, Italy drums, percussion, electronics -solo and member of Medves -has performed at Netmage Festival/Bologna, Klarafestival/Brussels, Ugglan Festival/Stockholm, Buziol/Venice, VPRO National Dutch Radio, more -multiple releases on labels such as Die Schachtel, Hapna, Wallace, Last Visible Dog, more -"The real victory of Belfi is the ease of cohabitation of melody and experiment. Few do it so well" (Jon Dale, The Wire) http://www.myspace.com/andreabelfi
May 22, 200916 yr A couple of small updates: international company Hurukuru Inc has opened a small office at Tyler recently. exciting start-up Red Apple Digital is up and running at the Village. E Prep is in and having classes. The Natural History Museum is a new tenant for Tyler. Ante Up Audio is finishing construction on their expansion space (as mentioned they recently doubled in size and staff) We are developing incubator spaces in building 31 now that OneCommunity has brought their fiber here. start-ups can get into an office on a 6 month lease that will include access to a 5 Mb connection among other amenities. The old boiler house is being prepped for demolition, this will provide much needed parking, as well as get rid of one of our only environmental problems on the campus.

May 22, 200916 yr international company Hurukuru Inc has opened a small office at Tyler recently. What kind of stuff do they do? I just was curious but couldn't find any info on them upon doing a quick search.
May 26, 200916 yr Where on the site is the old boiler house? Last building on the east side going north (next to the restaurant) international company Hurukuru Inc has opened a small office at Tyler recently. What kind of stuff do they do? I just was curious but couldn't find any info on them upon doing a quick search. Import/export, like Ed Vandaley.
May 26, 200916 yr I had the Indigo Imp Blonde Bombshell the other night. It was really good, and I'm not even a beer drinker!
May 26, 200916 yr I had the Indigo Imp Blonde Bombshell the other night. It was really good, and I'm not even a beer drinker! Is that a bad sign for those of us that are beer drinkers? :)
May 26, 200916 yr Import/export, like Ed Vandaley. Is he related to Art Vandaley from Seinfeld? :-D That's it.. I couldn't remember what the name was.

Hahaha...this was sitting here for a few days, I'm glad someone finally caught it. Oh, Seinfeld.... But wow, this tenant mix at Tyler is blowing my mind. Waaay beyond anything I previously envisioned. Congrats, willow.

May 27, 200916 yr I worked in Bldg 44 for a short time when the place was just getting rolling. I don't anymore but this project, with none of the developer bombast, media coverage, eminent domain threats, etc. is a great example of how to get things done and get them done right.
June 4, 200916 yr fyi, secretary of labor and the auto czar were at Tyler village yesterday being hosted by Frank Jackson and Chris Kious of a Piece of Cleveland. http://www.cleveland.com/business/index.ssf/2009/06/cleveland_wants_federal_govern.html CLEVELAND -- Public officials and foundation executives told Labor Secretary Hilda Solis and auto czar Ed Montgomery Wednesday that they needed the federal government's help in turning Northeast Ohio into a bustling green economy. "We want to ensure that Cleveland is competitive in the emerging green economy," said Cleveland Mayor Frank Jackson. "We want to be a leader in creating in jobs." The two dozen or so people attending the invitation-only breakfast meeting with Solis and Montgomery, said local governments and nonprofits needed more federal funding to create jobs and training programs. They said this money had to come with guidelines flexible enough to spur long-term employment and not just create temporary positions...

July 23, 200915 yr http://www.digitalwebpost.com/tyler/tyler1h.html Take a peek at our new marketing piece. You guys are the first to see this, and it will eventually be on the website with working links etc..
July 23, 200915 yr Wow. Return. Reuse. Rejoice. You guys just made a grown man get teary-eyed at his desk for no apparent reason (granted, I am a sissy :)). Such a great marketing piece (with several familiar faces) that really highlights what it should ... that quietly, this has become Cleveland's most exciting development project. It's such a travesty that Tyler Village doesn't have the visibility in the general community of, say, Battery Park. You guys are doing absolutely amazing work. Please, please, please, please start building out a residential section ... I would SERIOUSLY move in a month if you guys would let me :)
July 23, 200915 yr Wow - unbelievable. Inspiring. And I agree about residential....even though I just bought a house...maybe I'd need an east side place...
July 23, 200915 yr thanks all for the kind words. We are proud of this piece for sure and hope to start tying in our print media to it as well. We are very much exploring residential for the west side of campus, obviously there are hurdles, but we believe it would be a near perfect use for it considering the views of downtown and the lake.
July 23, 200915 yr Excellent! I loved it. What a transition between the before and after pics! I'm a fan!
July 23, 200915 yr I like it! Just to play devil's advocate though - it seemed a bit long for a marketing piece. I felt like I was watching the same thing over and over, a bit repetitive.

July 23, 200915 yr thanks for the advice. We will tweak it at some point next year, but this will be what we go with for a while
July 24, 200915 yr http://www.digitalwebpost.com/tyler/tyler1h.html Take a peek at our new marketing piece. You guys are the first to see this, and it will eventually be on the website with working links etc.. Love it, love it, LOVE IT. EVERY place in Cleveland that wants to market their commercial space should take notes (though perhaps some links could be added for those who want more in-depth info). Other than that - LOVE. IT. (and if you or anyone in the complex could use a designer with 16 years of experience and a work ethic like no other, shoot me a PM ;-) ).
