Therw's a "for sale" sign by Mayfield, But once they're sold and the signs ar removed I think they'll become somewhat of a Little Italy secret. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GISguy Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 I first started coming to Cle for an ex who lived in LI about 4-5 years ago. Crazy how much has been built in this area in just that short amount of time. I swear every time my family comes to visit there's new builds everywhere around the city and it's probably hard for them to put a finger on what areas they've seen and have been to. I guess I'll have to reintroduce Little Italy to them next visit lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly surprised every time I go back to Cleveland how much has changed in such a short period of time. Uptown was only in its infancy when I was a freshman at CSU about 10 years ago - surface parking lots to be exact. Very exciting times in Cleveland! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jeremyck01 Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 I like the photos of the project on the Mayfield Station website, but I can't stand the generic "young, hip people" pictures every development company puts on their websites, lol.

My pet peeve, which I thought I made pretty clear, was that I don't like the generic stock photos which look the same from development website to development website. It's lazy. Also, I'd rather see shots of the building than a bunch of shots of people that will never be my neighbors, no matter how attractive they may be. It's a great building and glad to see the density. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That being said, the most important thing is that buildings are getting built in Little Italy regardless of the marketing acumen. I'm looking forward to eventual for-sale builds rather than rentals.

So you're saying Cleveland developers aren't "Sheik" enough (Zaremba Avenue Dist), or don't bring enough of that "South Beach flair" (Optima/Oligarch Ventures) Anyhow those rents would appear to bode well for even more infill.

StapHanger Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 ^At least we get World Class Signage. According to the website, these are furnished units, no? I wonder if that's what gets the big rents.

Beacon is from Stark who, by the way, appears a little better prepared on the marketing front and a little more poorly prepared on the numbers front than the typical developer I mentioned above.

KJP Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 THURSDAY, JUNE 4, 2020 Work began today for Baricelli Inn Apartments in Little Italy Demolition work got underway earlier today to clear the way for the 44-unit Baricelli Inn Apartments in Cleveland's Little Italy neighborhood. The project has traveled a long road to get to this point but is finally moving forward. A pair of three-story rental homes at 2189 and 2193 Cornell Road were being razed, work that should take only a matter of hours. It will make way for site preparation to begin for the luxury apartments being developed by M. Panzica Development owned by Michael Panzica and City Six Development owned by Brad Nosan.

Htsguy Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 Is it know if the renovation of those three buildings on Murrary Hill Road is still part of the project, and, if yes if they will be worked on at the same time as the construction of the apartment building or will be left as part of a Phase 2? It is my feeling that a great renovation of those buildings is as important as the new construction and might lead to quality renos of many of the other sh*tholes in LI.

On June 2nd, certificates of disclosures were posted online for the three buildings with Panzica as the listed buyer. So definitely still part of the project, and last I remember, they were supposed to be all part of the same phase. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoshSteve Posted June 4, 2020 Share Posted June 4, 2020 What a long and bloody road up to this point. I'm glad to see the developers stuck with it though instead of saying F this. I almost just said its a great looking design that will fit in nicely with the neighborhood, but that's not true. Its a great looking design that will look almost out of place with many current neighborhood properties. Hopefully this construction, along with the reno of the three neighboring houses as part of the project, will be push the neighborhood along and push the cheap vinyl out to Chesterland. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KJP Posted June 22, 2020 Share Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Significant renovations proposed to a house into multi-family apartments. Value of the renovations to 2117 Murray Hill Rd are estimated at at least $400,000. Sounds like Panzica's Baricelli Inn development is already having a positive impact.

tykaps Posted June 26, 2020 Share Posted June 26, 2020 I believe leasing already started at the beginning of the month. A couple units based on their balconies look lived in already. A lot of students just won't be showing up till needed for classes. And yes, there will be a fall semester on campus; however, it's shortened. It ends Thanksgiving week and then finals will be done online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
