KJP Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I don't think this has been done before, so allow me to take a stab at putting in one place all the housing-based plans that have been announced for downtown Cleveland (and near-downtown) in recent weeks and months.

nsc Posted May 25, 2005 Share Posted May 25, 2005 I think that would be similar to having Mike White as mayor. Alot of projects would go forward that would some how put the city broke. The difference here however is there is alot of private investment being talked about versus all the public investment back in the 90's. More big city investment seems to be in the works.

X Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Riverview has to be substantially modified because the hillside that it is on isn't stable enough for modern development standards.

X Posted May 26, 2005 Share Posted May 26, 2005 Sorry RiverViewer, but the studies were quite extensive and inarguable. There is ALOT of stabilization and remedial work required to build on you. KJP, Valleyview is another Hope VI in Tremont, along W. 7th St. They are tearing down the current facilities and rebuilding them as mixed income. I haven't seen the plans yet. They were having a meeting to unveil the plans sometime soon (or they just had one maybe) but I can't remember the date. Tremont West is holding the meeting, you can call them for details. It is a pretty substantial project, but its not getting much attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJP Posted May 26, 2005 Author Share Posted May 26, 2005 Thanks. Now I recall it. That's the project at the south end of Tremont, near I-490, if I'm thinking of the same one. I can ask one of the Cleveland reporters in our office who's been covering that development. KJP “What is the meaning of this city?

KJP Posted May 27, 2005 Author Share Posted May 27, 2005 Battery Park appears to be a go. Riverview isn't on the back burner -- Phase I can proceed without as much density if the $15 million can't be found to stabilize the hillside. But efforts are in high gear to locate the funding. And, as for the DFAS Center, Crain's Cleveland Business had a good article this week that stated the big challenges (read: futile?) in trying to keep the center downtown. In a nutshell, the article quoted Defense Department documents that said part of the rationale for the relocated federal jobs is to put them on secure military bases where someone can't park a car bomb next to the building and snuff out countless lives. Unless we can replicate the same kind of building that the FBI built downtown, kiss the DFAS bye bye. KJP “What is the meaning of this city?

X Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 They left out of the discussion the massive increase in housing construction and storefront renovations that occurred in the past 10 years, and accelerated in the past 5.

clvlndr Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 Thanks, zace. :clap: All projects I like, sans Steelyards -- you can have it and Wal-Mart, imho. I am even trying to get a little excited about ECP, saying that "... well, at least it’s transit; it keeps RTA busy and maybe, maybe such general interest will bode well for other rail projects -- not just here, but around the state (it sure would be nice if both Cincy and C-Bus could get their light-rail off, er, ... into the ground). I’m hoping that cvsr into Cleveland and even Amtrak’s Midwest Initiative can come on line (but the later will involve a battle with the well-entrenched Bushies) Indeed, times seem good in C-town. But with all of these, I can't rest easy till the dirt slinging (literally, not figuratively) begins. I’m esp concerned about the most critical of these in my eyes: Wolstein’s Flats E. Bank project -- we thought the beautiful District Park condos were a sure thing, too, and, well... ... not trying to be a wet blanket, just a realist. :clap: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clvlndr Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 I'm hoping Wolstein's project may help revive the project -- apparently stalled because of the extra costs to the Marouses of removing an embedded warehouse buried in the W. 10th St hillside. Speaking of Wolstein, here's an interesting blurb from a Jan, 1997 re Bart, the father, in an overview of downtown by a guy named John Herrington (my, how things change): In the Flats, there is talk of change. Developer Bart Wolstein owns three-fourths of the east bank property and wants to make it a more family-friendly district with a bigger mix of entertainment choices. The idea of family orientation doesn't rest well with some business people in the Flats, who see the riverfront wine-and-dine area remaining, in the words of one, a "...party capital of the Midwest."

KJP Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 Thanks for posting the article. But curiously, it left out any mention of a number of other catalytic projects.... > Riverview Hope VI project in Ohio City; > Valleyview Hope VI project in Tremont; > Shoreway conversion to Lakefront Boulevard; > new $16 million private, non-paroachial school amid West 48th/53rd, I-90, RTA Red Line and Lorain Avenue (the school is already well along in construction); Can you imagine if a Rapid station were built next to that new school? That neighborhood would blossom! I suspect it already will blossom with homes that accommodate families, but the Rapid station (and some rezonings) would encourage higher-density development.

3231 Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 KJP, $16 million, private non-parochial? You are talking about Urban Community, right? Isn't that run by a collection of the different catholic churches in the neighborhood (St. Malachi's, Wendelin's, Colman's Stephen's)? By the way, it is a great school. The UC kids at Ignatius were always very bright and interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Map Boy Posted June 6, 2005 Share Posted June 6, 2005 interesting...I'd not heard of this yet. Is anyone actually talking about a new station? Doubtful right now with all the other RTA projects in the works, but cool to think about. What are the surroundings like? Any commercial district or at least zoning that would allow it? I'm all for little pockets of activity that are well-connected by transit or vibrant communities! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJP Posted June 6, 2005 Author Share Posted June 6, 2005 Yes, that's the Urban Community school. A nun is the head honcho of the school, and it is currently operated at St. Malachi. But, from what I understand, it doesn't have a faith-based curriculum. They're building the new school because, at their current, smallish location, parents have to put their kids on a waiting list when the child is born. By the time the child is of school age, they should be near the front of the list. There are no plans for a Rapid station next to the school, and the surrounding area is residential, but with very small, decrepit homes and numerous vacant lots. On that score, the area is ripe for "a do-over!" You can also see the site from I-90. KJP “What is the meaning of this city?

KJP Posted November 5, 2005 Author Share Posted November 5, 2005 Not yet. The developer still has property to acquire, and has been very cautious, using different companies to make different property acquisitions, so as to disguise his intentions and keep sale prices to a minimum. The hope is for a breakthrough by as early as the middle of this month. If so, I will spill the beans at that time. I don't want to say anything right now or my article might kill the project. When I sent out the teaser on this forum, I didn't know that there were still properties to be acquired. I now regret sending out that teaser because, as we all know, anything can happen during a negotiation. By the way, I updated the list again, adding three projects in the "on hold/maybe" category. Call me optimistic! I'll bet that at least one of them happens. None are my "mystery project" however. “What is the meaning of this city?

WoollyBear Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 ^ I know you can't say anything, but I remember reading back in March/April that Bob Stark of Crocker Park wanted to do a development downtown. So that is my guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X Posted November 5, 2005 Share Posted November 5, 2005 Gotcha KJP, and I won't make any guesses in public since there is still acquisition going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Map Boy Posted November 7, 2005 Share Posted November 7, 2005 Anyone who hasn't checked out this week's West Side Sun News should do so. Our very own KJP has a couple nice features articles! Both relate to Downtown Development, so mentioning them here is quite appropriate. I know at least one is available online at http://www.cleveland.com/sun/westsidesunnews/ Keep up the good work, KJP!
