BUFFALO, NY SAVES STRUCTURAL SKELETON OF BUILDING SIMILAR TO BREUER'S CLEVELAND AMERITRUST TOWERSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Mon, 01/21/2008 - 19:26.
The 15 story Dulski Federal Building in Buffalo, New York is undergoing a down to the steel skeleton re-hab. This building was constructed in the early 1970’s, and besides the time of its construction, shares other similarities with the Breuer designed Ameritrust Tower built in 1971 in Cleveland, Ohio.
PopUpCity at East Bank of FlatsSubmitted by Susan Miller on Sun, 01/20/2008 - 11:57.
02/29/2008 - 18:00 02/29/2008 - 23:00 Etc/GMT-4 Terry Schwarz who brought us The Incredible Shrinking City mind expanding plan reimagining work now brings us this cool series. This event will be a sort of "get it while you can" for those of us who will lament the loss of those memories of the Flats Eastbank from back in the day (I have my own sordid memories of those streets from the 80s and 90s which I will keep archived). There's an older bio of Terry here (scroll down). I can't wait for the CUDC site to be updated. Can you find Christopher Diehl there? I can't. Still, this is a very helpful site for those looking for bright ideas on the possibilities in our region. Learn more about PopUpCity. A pop up experience with food, fun, and spectacle in the Flats East Bank. Location

Banks make you feel like a dog? Apply for an account with Huntington, at that house on RoxburySubmitted by Norm Roulet on Thu, 01/17/2008 - 14:05.
01/18/2008 - 10:00 01/18/2008 - 12:00 Etc/GMT-4 (Photo by Grace Roulet) Does banking make you feel like a dog, or are you in a financial dog house? I know the feeling, especially from doing business as an entrepreneur and with real estate development. But, finding a good banker and developing a strong bank relationship offers great windows of opportunity. Location1894 Roxbury Between Euclid and Forest Hills

On Friday January 11, 2008 Cleveland, Ohio Mayor Frank Jackson announced that the City was filing suit against 21 banks/financial firms. The suit alleges that the defendants created a public nuisance in Cleveland. The alleged nuisance was created through issuances of thousands of “sub-prime” loans which are alleged by the City to have caused the abandonment, vacancy, and subsequent demolition of thousands of Cleveland residential buildings.

WHISKEY ISLAND - NEW COUNTY BRIDGE TAKES SHAPESubmitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 01/04/2008 - 21:42.
Ed Hauser introduced me to Whiskey Island a few years back, and since then I have taken a keen interest in this part of Cleveland. So today I thought I would check up on the new bridge which the County promised - to replace the former one lane bridge which was located next to the rail road tracks just before you get to the Whiskey Island Marina and Wendy Park.

Request for feedback on intergenerational living and learning neighborhood developmentSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Wed, 12/26/2007 - 09:10.
Global warming will bring an end to white Christmas and winter as we've always known in, here in NEO, so during the first real snowstorm of this season, December 16, 2007, I went in search of a visual symbol of NEO, in my neighborhood, strong enough to stand out in white-out conditions, and I came to the Breuer! Not the Breuer Tower, of global controversy, but the Breuer Museum wing of global celebration, design elements of which are featured in the latest additions to the Cleveland Museum of Art, shown on the left here, now evolving form in the hands of Vinoly.

WILL MYERS UNIVERSITY BECOME AN F1 VISA FACTORY? WILL “STUDENTS” WORK AT THE CLEVELAND CLINIC?Submitted by Jeff Buster on Mon, 12/24/2007 - 18:06.
On December 14, 2007 Judge Gaul presented University of Northern Virginia LLC’s president, Mr. Ho, to Myers’ students and the media at Myers University in Midtown, Cleveland, Ohio. Mr. Ho’s English is a bit difficult to follow, but what I made out was that Mr. Ho had in the past been a professor, and he still considers his relationship to the various for profit schools he operates as that of a professor – Mr. Ho is not currently teaching as a professor, but is negotiating the take over of the Myers Board of Trustees. As of December 20 Mr. Ho had appointed eight of his candidates to the “Board” with Judge Gaul’s approval. Mr. Ho (center with glasses), and his associate Mr. Lee (on right with glasses and striped tie) went on to say that it was their intention to expand the student population at Myers by attracting foreign students – with a goal of about 2,500 students.
Art of our Times: Derek Hess InterventionsSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 12/24/2007 - 13:06.
Derek Hess showcased his latest work in a one-night exhibit at Kelly Randall Gallery, in Tremont, December 14, featuring new prints and original illustrations and collages that continue growth and demonstrate innovation in this fine artist's work. His work makes powerful statements in form and message, and Derek's message is stronger and more on-target than ever, in these troubling times.
Art of the Day: B'Log by Harry "X" SysackSubmitted by Norm Roulet on Mon, 12/24/2007 - 12:40.
After what seemed like quite a lapse in postings, Northeast Ohio's original b'logger (billboard logger), Harry "X" Sysack, recently put on-line what he promises is "the truth & the whole truth your overpaid teachers & benighted college professors never teach you". Sysack's line is on the RTA, on his private property where W.25th forms Pearl, and his "truths" begin with "Yo, students" and include "What is Christian America all about? Everybody is fuckin' everybody & everybody is lyin' about how they're fuckin' everybody. All politicians are evil & dishonest...". And, one of my favorites, "All lawyers are legal ho's."
INTERNET FACILITATES PUBLIC WILL AROUND THE WORLD, AND IN CLEVELAND, OHIO WITH BREUERSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 12/23/2007 - 18:52.
George Nemeth, over on Fresh Brewed Daily, has picked up this bellweather post which has the metrics on blog discussions re topics of local interest around the US. The blog index is a new and, I believe, very important statistic.
LONG ROAD TO THE SCRAP MARKET IN CLEVELAND, 0HIOSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Sun, 12/23/2007 - 13:28.
I stopped and spoke with these two fellows to check on the current prices paid for scrap steel- a nickel a pound or $100.00 per ton. They were happy to converse, but weren't keen on being photographed up close. Each of their shopping baskets had, I would estimate, between 100lbs and 200lbs of rusty cast iron and steel - a 1 inch diameter steel rod about 3 feet long, a piece of angle iron, what looked like a plate that goes under the rail road rail and through which the RR spikes are hammered, etc. These fellows had been gleaning the fields around the TriC area and were headed on Saturday to the scrap yard at E55th and 490.
DRIVEWAY WITH A CONSCIENCESubmitted by Jeff Buster on Fri, 12/21/2007 - 16:57.
Louie (on the left) is lugging one of the 75 pound precast concrete waffle blocks. Each block covers about 1.5 square feet. At $12.00 each, or $8.00 per square foot, this is a little more expensive than having a concrete driveway installed.
THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FREE STAMP - CLEVELAND, OHIOSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 12/20/2007 - 21:41.
10.18.11 Occupy Cleveland needs a permit for Willard Park and for Public Square. Downtown Cleveland Alliance needs access for Xmas decor. Right. Christmas in Cleveland will be hard for many. But some have shelter, colored with red, white, and green. The FREE STAMP is a negative, as is much of Cleveland.
DANA PATERSON IS NEON - SUNDAY OPENHOUSE!Submitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 12/20/2007 - 20:51.

ROLDO BARTIMOLE ON BREWED FRESH DAILY - POSITIVELY CLEVELAND + PLUSSubmitted by Jeff Buster on Thu, 12/13/2007 - 15:06.
BREWED FRESH DAILY HAS A THREAD which carries a discussion which I believe it is important for everyone in NEO to read. The thread is especially important now that the City of Cleveland is looking desperately for immediate cash-back from the taxpayers’ UDAG loans.
