urbanetics_ Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) They should’ve made this sidewalk red and it would totally feel like a red carpet. Already trash in the planters though. And benches and trash cans are nice and good quality, just not sure who would want to sit there facing parked cars and a busy road.

urbanetics_ Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 ^Yeah that was strange. IIRC, there was a pattern of 1 tree planter, 2 no tree planters (with some sparse grassy stuff), 1 tree planter, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave2017 Posted June 17, 2020 Share Posted June 17, 2020 I have never understood why seating is arranged facing the street other than bus locations. Simply turn the bench 90 degrees and add 2 between the planters for people to congregate together . I am underwhelmed by the plantings they have chosen. "The May" inset is a nice touch to the sidewalk. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrclifton88 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Thanks everyone, believe it or not I just use my iPhone 99% of the time... rarely do I have an actual camera with me. It's all about finding the right angle and making sure the exposure is right, other than that it's just luck! Can't wait to see what you get @ASPhotoman The wall sconces along the Euclid side weren't lit up yet nor the clock (which has been on before) so it looks like there's a few more elements to be activated. Overall I would say this is one of if not the best example of appropriate and beautiful historical lighting I have seen so far downtown. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoshSteve Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 I'm so glad they are using white light, instead of colors. Colored lights are cool, but they've lost their uniqueness now that nearly every building downtown is bathed in multi-color lights at night. Starting to get cluttered to my eye. The white light really makes it stand out and lets you focus on the beautiful details of the building. 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArtDecoSquirrel Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 I'm glad to see those round pillars in the hallway turned out nice, it was a real pain avoiding the big fiberglass clouds when they were cutting them to size. lol In all seriousness, of all the things I've been a part of with the Carpenters, I'm most proud of the May Company.

CleveFan Posted July 31, 2020 Share Posted July 31, 2020 Latest Cleveland Business Development letter from the Downtown Cleveland Alliance features this sunny pic of The May with the Terminal Tower towering in the background. So great to have these classic buildings restored to greatness and now coming alive with residents. The flowers and trees framing these buildings create a postcard-perfect image. You've got to feel good for everyone that worked so hard to make that restoration of The May such a success. Thanks for the article DCA! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
